I'm going to have to sell my E46 M3. Not replacing it, so no part-ex and I can't face the hassle of selling privatley, what with the time-wasters and dreamers that will be calling up (I've been through it too many times before!). So, looking for a recommendation for a dealer in the South that will sell it for me. Prefer if they just buy it off me then its gone. Any recommendations or tips appreciated.

Cheers.

Anyway why not private. AFAIK a pistonheads advert is free, and if the car is priced right, it'll go quickly, and even undercutting the competition, you'd still get more than a dealer will offer IMHO.

Realise that selling privatley gets best price, but can't face the hassle of time-wasters on the phone and idiots coming around to the house and wanting a test drive even though they have no intention of buying it. Don't even want to sell it, so just want to get it over with.

I can relate to that completely.
I fking hate selling cars and I haven't really had that many terrible experiences.
The problem with selling outright to a dealer is that the price you are invariably offered is eyewatering.

I'm not sure if you are registered on http://www.chew-the-fat.com/forum/ but a dealer on there called Illustrious_Len (he is a member here too but IM not sure of username) has sold cars for several members of both forums and importantly is honest, reliable and would do it for a very reasonable margin and take all the hassle out of it.
If you don't need the money instantly, that is definitely the happy medium of getting a fair price and removing the hassle
