I'll be putting a high milage *car* up for sale over the coming days. It's 8 years old, has a few nicks and marks but is in pretty alright condition over all.

It has had the dpf removed and the Egr valve, but it passed it's MOT last week without a single issue.

It'll be price at around £3,700 and I'll need to sell it in the coming 2.5 weeks.

EBay, auto trader or pistonheads. Can anyone comment on which will attract the best audience vs price for selling it?

Cheers guys

I find between eBay and Pistonheads you've got things covered. I find Autotrader to be very expensive and when selling cars across all three it has proved least fruitful.

As a general rule, eBay will sell quicker but they expect lower prices. Pistonheads slower but generally better people (not always though, but I have sold a couple of cars to very good people via PH)

Kept it vague just to avoid being accused of that! Wanted to give enough details so people know my rough target audience to comment.

Thanks for the suggestions so far!
