    Sell it via Autotrader. Don't be too greedy, price at roughly at what a new one would cost at the dealer, minus a bit.

    Then again, you could call your local paper and see if you could get some story about it - free advertising. Bear in mind that people don't generally like paying full price when they know that the seller has won the car for almost nothing. So the newspaper route might not be such a good idea.

    Thanks - I'll look into that. Main problem seems to be finding out what the value is - do you bung on a bit more over and above the "normal" limited edition StreetKa's for it being only 1 of 8 made and having some famous persons signature on it, or do you take some off for it being pink?!

    How about going round a few Ford dealers and asking what they'd give you for it?

    you could always put it on ebay with a reserve of what you want. Thats what i would do. Then you can appeal to the mass market and get the proper price of what this limited edition should make!!!
