eBay and Autotrader spring to mind, but there's also http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/free_advert.php as that's free.

Surprisingly I've had good success with the electronic bulletin board at work (if you have something similar)

You may need to leave the car with a friend/family to sell unless you are repared to take a hit on the price frown

PH classifieds should work but try this one....


http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/

Its free and is watched internationally.
I have got someone coming to view my MGB today from France, talking about offering asking price...
Watch this space.

Jules... Already the cheapest one in the country I think.
Got her up for £3400. Should have advertised her earlier,leaving everything to the last minute as usual.

Yep, you're right that is a GREAT price. Is the ad on PH a little "broken" some if the pics don't come up and Pic 1 and Pic 4 are the same... but then again my PC at work is rubbish so it may just be me.

Asked PH about problems with the photos and basically they say it's my fault. Done something wrong.Quite what I have done wrong I don't know ?? I followed the instructions and it's all gone wrong. Which is all well and good for a free site but seen as you now have to pay it's a pretty shabby state of affairs.
I won't be using PH to sell a car again.

Well its good news, guy from France turned up with cash, the asking price, no quibbles deal done, V5 sent off .
My gorgeous MGB will be in Brittany by the weekend, he had it provisionally booked on the ferry before he saw it!!
carandclassic obvious choice for the sale of my cars in the future, no dealers or scammers, just genuine interested people.

Interestingly enough that's exactly what happened to my TVR! Guy from France came over paid cash and off he went to the ferry. They must have a lot of spare cash over there and love English classics.
