Hi All :)
I have been trying to sell my car for over a month now, but not having any success!

I have paid for ads on Ebay, Auto trader & listed multiple times on Gumtree and local Facebook sites.

It is a great car, I never thought I would have this much of a problem selling. Has anyone any other suggestions I can try to get rid? I now have a company car so it's no longer needed, I'd rather get rid and have it on the road instead of sitting in my drive

Thanks, Cheryl

    The harsh truth is you're asking too much, sorry
    Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.

    I was going to say the same, either that or the advert is badly written and is putting people off.


    If you post your advert up in here I'm sure someone will help.
  • You both are probably right, I have been lowering it a bit here and there. It is same priced as all other similar cars, but I may as well cut the price by a lot just to get it sold. Thanks :)

    So instead of posting a link to the advert for some constructive criticism you decide to just drop the price a lot?

    See what webuyanycar.com or wewantanycar.com want to give you for it and add 100 or so on top. If you can't get rid soon then cut your losses.

  • There isn't an ad because its DM101.

    Wrong time of year to sell an overpriced M3?

    Many things could be wrong. Price is to big or maybe pictures are bad, car is not clean on the pictures...Do you get a lot of calls?
  • If its a Lada I'll take it off your hands for £25,000.
