What do you do with your "unsellable" cars?

May have been covered before but Im sure most of you have owned cars that have become "unsellable" over the years.

For example, my E46 Drives really well but it has many a bodywork niggle such as missing headlight washer cover, missing arch liner on one side, kerbed wheels etc and to top it off it has 7 previous owners.

The car is started to become a handful to maintain and I'd rather sell it off and get something a little more reliable but the whole aspect to me seems like it won't sell unless I P/X it or use one of those online sites.

Anyone had similar experiences? Have you managed to sell off worse cars/in worse shape?

Thanks for all the input.

Dealing with shoddy independent dealers telling you "Ill take it off your hands, no one else will" makes your mind wander.

Being fair - Cosmetically it is just a case of missing "plastic bits" and a spot of rust on the arch. Mechanically the car runs fine and is currently having a new cluster being fitted. I think the biggest put off to most is that they will be the 8th owner of a 2.5 Litre auto E46 haha.

Hopefully - With honesty + a decent price (2/3k Ive been told) it should sell fine.

eBay seems like a good shout but personally, I wouldn't want to let go of it for less than £2k.

If the auction ends at something ridiculous like £400 do I still have to sell?

Most people mentioned no reserve, which is why I ask.
