Best place to sell an old banger?
Can anyone recommend the best place to sell an old car round here?
I've got a 10 year old 1.2 Fiat still running with the usual things gone that go with a car of that age...
I just want rid of it really and wondered if anyone had had any success via the mercury etc.
Thanks!

I googled something like scrap my car and got lots of options, we buy any car etc will give you an idea of the price. In the end I rang one with a freephone number turned out the guy was from Hoddesdon, he turned up gave £150 no quibble. All the ones in Mercury offered the least cash except one who offered £150 then turned up and said it was only worth £80 so I sent him on his way. Sorry I can't remember the name of the one I used.

I put mine on gumtree and ebay and was surprised at how much interest was had. The price was better than expected as well.

No prob Spooky.
I too had lots of interest on Ebay for a better car, but sold it to time waster who really messed me about with a load of guff!
Also listing and waiting and answering questions on Ebay can be allot of faff, whereas if you just want to get rid of a car for a bit of cash the guy I called turned up up and took it away same day, leaving me with a lovely clear driveway.

I sold my last old banger at a car boot sale.
