I have a VW van I want to sell. I don't really know what it's worth as a local dealer wants £13k and webuyanyvan lowest seems to be around 8500k.
The one positive thing is it has extraordinarily low mileage for the type, but it's not perfect in every detail.

Autotrader? E-bay? Local rag? what works best
NO to pasty tax We won!!!! Just shows that people power works! Don't be apathetic to your cause!

  • Autotrader or pistonheads, all you need. A for pricing, look on the aforementioned sites for simillar vehicles and use that as your guide and adjust for mileage. You'll soon know if you've priced wrong, you'll either get no calls or alot.
  • Ebay and start it at the price werobyou quote.

    Just expect lots of scams, I will give you £1m if you can ship it to my monkeys uncle who is working on the moon.

    I can't get the pistonheads site to work; load of rubbish if you ask me. Whatever criteria I put it it says it can't find anything that matches !
    Autotrader is fine though.

    If I was looking for a car I would use Autotrader, But as I wonder if this van might be popular to bid on I am thinking e-bay....

  • As a buyer, I would start on Autotrader too

    Have a look at Autotrader and have a laugh at the prices people think their cars are worth; then get a more realistic deal on eBay or FreeAds
