My own experience makes me think "where would I look for a car" and start advertising there.
For what it's worth I would go for Autotrader for some thing decent and worth a few quid.
Ebay seems fine to get rid of something damaged/cheap - Ebay seems to attract more timewasters.

I recently listed a Jag on both platforms identical advert/photos/price - loads of "enquiries" via Ebay (dozens) no viewings, 2 enquiries via autotrader 2 viewings and 1 buyer.
Good luck

+1 for AutoTrader. I've used it for years to buy and sell, most recently Jan I bought an old L320.

Good package, good reach. Very easy to create and manage your ad online, and for the buyer the search tools are great. Graham

AutoTrader is good but the packages are expensive.

I usually go Gumtree and eBay as a Classified Ad so there's no fees.

I have used motorway.co.uk twice in the past two years and the service was good. You get an initial 'rough' valuation and then if you agree, they auction the car and inform you of the best offer. When I sold my last RR, it was at the time that prices for second-hand vehicles were going through the roof, so I left it a few weeks and ended up getting 10k more than their original quote Shocked

At the time they provided the best quotation, but maybe worth checking Carwow and WBAC as well.

Cheers,

If the car is a goodie, then I'd list it on here - moved on two of mine that way. If its a bit iffy then do as Andy B says - those trade buyers cut out any pfaffing about. Mike - MPx

Funny enough, I advertised my L405, my G4 Challenge L322, my one-of-one P38 Trek, and more recently, my one-off Balmoral Green L322, and... never got any lead from advertising these niche Range Rover here, which is surprising, to say the least.
How they sold:

L405= sold via ebay
G4 L322= Themarket.com
P38: Facebook RR groups
Balmoral L322: I may place it on Auto Trader.
Sold my wife's Freelander 2 with a day on Facebook marketplace.

Note: eBay is a waste of time, big time (I got 15/20 'offers' over the phone, but no one came to buy it until one chap bought it at the advertised price, came paid on the spot, and we're still in touch!

I hope this helps.

I would vouch for Autotrader. It’s worth the expense in my eyes. Better chance of a genuine buyer.

I’ve hand some success from Facebook, but a bit of pot luck really. It can be quite exhausting trying to sell privately though.

I would definitely suggest Autotrader besides this amazing forum. All, the usual things apply. Lots of photos plus - service history, owners, mileage and as much detail as you can! Then expect enquirers to ask you stuff that is on the listing. Whistle

Other options include; motors.co.uk ( an “aggregator” site I think), carandclassic (bought our L322 thanks to an eagle eyed forum member) and pistonheads.

Good luck with the sale! Thumbs Up Current: L322 2011 Zermatt Silver TDV8 Vogue SE, MB GLB AMG35, Renault Clio R200 Cup

Autotrader for me. Sold last RR L322 via this forum almost 6 years ago but AT got a strong response and ultimate sale this time round with the L405 (paid for the indefinite AT advert until sold and felt that was good vfm).

Point of note - giving AT viewers the phone or email option did result in a lot of crank/ ridiculous chancing enquiries whereas those who phoned always presented as genuine and it was the phone callers who turned up and made the serious offers.

I think it all depends on what sort of level of car it is.

I tend to buy or sell cars at sub 5k, and at that level, it's simply not worth paying to list on Autotrader when I can sell it just as quickly and easily using Ebay and Facebook marketplace.

For what it's worth on FB, join a few of the buy/sell groups specifically for that vehicle, as that's the first place I look when I'm buying.
