Does anyone have experience of this and can recommend a company please Have looked at Autotrader is the price of advert full charge or do I have to pay commission on top

you should try and sell it online and in the weekly paper of autotrader as well,and no,there is no commision,you just pay the fee to put the advert on.

I just sold my car on autotrader and trust me i got calls within minutes of putting in on there, i will add it became very annoying once i sold it to try and update my advert to say it had been sold, i still got a call last night asking about it and it was sold 2 weeks ago!!!! i would tend not t give my home number in future i had loads of calls not that is bad because obviously you want to sell your car, but it got so much i wanted to put a pre-recorded message on my phone before i picked it up just telling people car was sold.
I dont know why it takes so long for it to update to say its sold on there.

Thanks both for rapid reply. I think I'll give Autotrader a go. Th car is only a year old so I doubt I'll have the same success as confused79 but I''ll have to try to find out

"i still got a call last night asking about it and it was sold 2 weeks ago!!!! "

2 Weeks, I sold my motor bike about 4 years ago and still get emails:) I put it on a site and can't remember what it was called so can't take it off.

hiya.. you should advertise your vehicle on loot.co.uk.. you will have to register first then it takes 24 hours till it is posted on the website and 2 days in the loot paper... if it doesent sell place it on ebay.. only costs �6.00 to place it on there with the option of putting a buy it now button on aswell as make an offer .. you will get a quick sale on both sites..good luck with selling your vehicle!!....

Hi There,

I have been in the motortrade for 15yrs and in my experiance to sell a car fast it needs to be seen in as many places as possible. Autotrader is great but can be expensive and if your car does not sell first week then it can get very expensive.

One of the websites I would reccomend to anyone is UKCarAds.co.uk This is a free car classifieds website that will send your ad to over 200 other car classifieds including the THE SUN, Lycos classifieds and Yell.com classifieds until sold. There is a smallcatch though, in exchange for your free ad they do ask for you to get a free insurance quote for your next car which to be honest for 5 mins of your time is a small price to pay.

Good luck.
