How to sell a car like that, if you're not in a rush, and get the best price.

- Decide what you think it's worth - £2,900 you say.

- Decide what you would knock off, should be less than 10% of the value, lets say £200 in this case.

- Add the above two - £3,100 - advertise the car at that.

- If anyone comes to see it, and want to buy it, if they haggle then knock off the £200 but NO MORE. You don't need to explain anything to them, just simply if you want to buy it today it's £x - take it or leave it.

- If after a week it's not sold, reduce the price by £200 - go to step 2.....

At some point, someone will buy it.... it's worth explaining what you're doing to prospective buyers - they can then decide whether they wait for a lower price at the risk of losing the car.

My guess would be you will get 5 people who just want a cheap estate car to 1 enthusiast who will pay for that car as it's in good nick and there isn't many of them left....
