I bought a Lotus Emira new last year, and while I love it, it’s just not getting used, so I may as well sell it on.

It’s as-new, with only 1,000 miles on it; what are people’s thoughts on the best way to sell it to maximise what I get?

It’s not got to go quickly, and has no finance on it.

Obvious choices are private sale, asking a local dealership to list it for me or asking Lotus to.

Any other sensible avenues to follow?

Might sound daft but could you use it more? Wouldn’t get me out of a car like that!
It’s at my second home, next to a GR Yaris that I rarely get to use either, and I’ve also got a Range Rover for general use and a McLaren 650s too.

I’m never going to get enough use to justify keeping it.

Nice garage!
If it was all in the one garage it’d be great; it’s the 300 mile distance between them that’s the problem.

Hi Ken,

If you drop me a PM with the details (colour/spec) I'll see if I can get any trade bids on it.
