Good time of year to sell a car?

Is there a good (or bad) time of the year to sell a car?

I've got an old banger to sell (well it's 11 yrs old but in fine working order) which is due for tax renewal soon. It's coming up to Christmas and I'm wondering if it would be better to put it off the road until Spring and then advertise it?

or DO people buy cars in the run-up to Christmas?
