Hi all

I'm wondering if you give me some ideas about the best place to sell a car with a mechanical fault. It's a cylinder misfire that's intermittent (has been like it for 3 years) and extensively investigated without a cause being found. I've listed it on eBay and Facebook marketplace with an accurate description but very limited interest. I'm wondering about other places / sites you'd suggest that I could sell it. Any ideas?

    Limited interest the right buyer has not yet seen it or its overpriced?

    Anything will sell at the right price.

    What car, how old and how much were you asking? Most people looking at that would be assuming it needs an engine swap and it should be priced accordingly. Those seem like the right channels to sell it though. Probably just price.
