I only put car up for sale a couple of days ago had two queries / the first I had a bad feeling about as he didn’t seem genuine and wanted my phone number rather than contacting thru autotrader. Second enquiry was from a ms buying a car for his daughter and he bought it for just a couple of hundred less than the price in the ad so I’m very happy - sold in 2 days

Each section was easily filled out with the option of adding more information.
Hopefully this will help attract more buyers.

Successful private sale.
Helpful advice re advert, safety selling practises and good information re progress of advertisement.
Secure number system worked perfectly and the prompt advice email, following an enquiry, was very helpful.
The advice re price, which I had thought optimistic, proved accurate.
