Need to sell a commercial vehicle. Best way?

[marcus]

Ok, I am after some more advice. I need to flog my Peugeot Expert (3yrs old, worth about £4k), and having never sold a vehicle before (scrapped plenty) wondered which is the best way?Anybody got a preference for ebay, or autotrader, or maybe a specialist commercial site? Or maybe just the local paper?

You could try your local Gumtree website, It's free and easy so it's worth a try, I've just chucked my Puma on there easy enough.

 

http://ipswich.gumtree.com/ (This is the Ipswich link, you will need to change city).

 

Or you could try autotrader, for cars It's £20 for two weeks online only which is all you need really, I've had sold a Foucs a few years back on there quite easily.

AutoTrader your best bet. eBay almost entirely a total waste of time, money and effort these days.

Ive had a couple of results on t'bay lately. Helps if it is something a bit unusual though, a catagory the partner wont be in for a few years yet.

I stand corrected, Autotraders gone up since the last time i used it, It's now £29 for 2 weeks online, Bugger.

Is there a 'general' (i.e. not specifically motors) aution house near you?Bung it in there and watch as the local corner shop owners fight over it. All the vans that go though our local place seem to go for well over what you'd expect.

We've sent a few vans to auctions at work this year and it has been an utter disaster. As a lot of self employed van buyers were terminally skint because of TEH EKONOMIK MELTDOWN some of the Transits (SWB, typically 50-80k, in white 04/54 plates) were fetching around half their Glasses Guide trade value.In the end just parked a load of them up for a few months - some are still sat there...
