Selling My Car

[airchie]

Hi guys,

I was hoping to get some feedback and advice on selling my car.
I bought a BMW 130i M-Sport almost a year ago now when I lived in Aberdeen.
a few months after buying it, circumstances changed and I moved to London permanently.

I initially kept my car but realise now that its a bit of a waste of money having a car sat on my parents driveway, only being driven at weekends by them or driven by me on the rare occasions I go back home to visit friends/family.

So, I currently have it up for sale on here and haven't had much interest except from chancers offering well below what its worth.
I've had it up in autotrader once and a few other places without much interest.

What I was wondering is, can you guys see anything I'm missing from my advert or something that would put you off from being a potential buyer?



Thanks in advance for any advice or selling tips.

Cheers,
Craig

No pics of the interior? Could be filthy, have ripped leather etc

Location? Could be a long journey for most people at a guess? I'm in the Midlands & don't bother looking at cars that far North, maybe just me though! Don't cars command a premium doww south anyway? No way you can take it back to London to sell it?

Wouldn't you sell it easier in London?

The colour would put a few people off.

You could try signing up to a car forum on the internet and promoting your advert on that. Oh.....




In all seriousness, I'm always put off when people make a point of saying they won't take offers below what a car is advertised at. Makes me think they're just going to be awkward to deal with....

True. Some say it is the new black but can look a tad dull. All imho, of course.
