Best way to sell car for free?

Danyúl_II

Done the following; Gumtree in 3 diff cities, Facebook status, Facebook marketplace, word-of-mouth to friends, asked them to spread the word, Adtrader.co.uk, local Sainsburys notice board.

Need to put an advert in car window, other supermarkets, Post Office notice board.

Any other hints? Need a quick, but fairly-priced sale!

Paid £30 for 2x sales on eBay for no interest - urgh!

Cheers!

Hi am doing the same thing though paid for local paper/motors.co.uk and autotrader.

Preloved.co.uk
Vivastreet.co.uk (goes to Trovit)
Oodle.co.uk
Pistonheads.com

Brilliant as many allow you to see how many ppl view your ad as well.

If you know any more let me know and did you pick a big area with gumtree? and post 3 identical adds but with 3 cities?

Hi - 3 diff cities (as I spend time in all 3!)

Thanks for the links, will check them later - yay!

Maybe you need to have a realistic asking price?

As you have failed to generate much interest in the places you've tried can only mean two things - its either well over priced or some Korean piece of crap.

Below average price for the car, plus way below average miles, and above average condition for a car of 7 years of age.

Hopefully it'll sell soon

Ah ok, just so you know my previous reply is in the context of Ive only been advertising for <1 day for all sites except autotrader which is 2 and a half days and motors.co.uk wont post for a couple of days. Obviously now it wasnt directed at me.

if it hasn't sold on ebay i can only presume that either your advert was crap or its well over priced.
