Default where is the best place to sell it?

I have a little money and would like to invest it in a newer V70 T5, I have an 850 turbo estate with reverse intercooler piping with 165000miles and loads of service history.
The money I want for it really doesnt warrant spending on autotrader, I hate fleabay as it is full of dreamers and timewasters, does pistonheads generally get the job done?
I'm a bit pushed for time as ive seen my next one already.
your help is appreciated as always.

Gumtree, Friday ad., that's where I was looking when I bought mine.

Cheers,

I've sold two cars via pistonheads (the free ad, rather than premium).

Spent £33 on a 2 week autotrader ad, no calls.

Also advertised on gumtree, no calls this time.

- try here, pistonheads and gumtree, give autotrader a wide berth

if it helps I souced my car from an add on piston heads, i also look at retor rides as they have a budget section that covers other vehicles not classed as being retro enough.
