Hi everyone,

An aunt of mine has an oldish (about 7 - 10 years) Suzuki Alta 1.3 with about 90,000 miles that she wants to sell.

As my Aunt keeps donkeys, this car has been used to transport the complete range of donkey food (carrots, hay and whatever else donkeys eat), and is itself more of a four wheeled stable than car - complete with liberal coatings of straw over all whatever remains of the upholstery.

Adding to the authentically rustic interior, the exterior has plenty of battle scars - few if any panels escaping unscathed.

Has anyone got any ideas as to the best way of getting rid of this - and preferably getting some money for it ? An additional problem is that my Aunt would prefer not to sell the car privately, meaning that it will have to be some sort of trade / auction or other route ...

Thanks

Suffolk

Ebay or simply invite offers from the traders on here who may be close to the vehicles location

Give the petrol garage wash'n'vac kids £20 to smarten it up as best they can.

Then invest an hour or so in taking some photos, write an accurate description of car and condition and bung it on ebay with a zero reserve. Highest bid wins and collects within a week.

Job done.

Find a young relative and offer it to them cheap, really cheap.

It sounds horrific.

Thanks for the replies - ebay sounds like a good option, and at the very least an accurate description of the car should make for interesting reading ...

It's a crap car in what sounds like worse then crap condition along with quite high miles for a small car.

Stick it through an auction or on ebay and hope somebody wants it.
