 | Got a Golf for sale in classifieds, its on eBay too but what forums are worth advertising it on?
 
 Anyone willing to post up on my behalf if I give you a number/email address as the point of contact? If its allowed on any of those forums, not overly bothered about signing up to use the site once or twice

 | Do any of these forums have minimum post totals before you can sell on them? (like here)

 What do I get when I place an advert on PistonHeads?
 Advertising a car
 
 When advertising a car you will be able to add up to 9 photos and can write an unlimited amount of text. All adverts are charged at £9.99 and for this you will be able to advertise your car to 4 million potential buyers making PistonHeads the best value place to advertise your vehicle.
 
 
 Advertising motorbikes and other items
 
 A Standard advert is free. For this you’ll get up to three photographs and no restrictions on the length of your description. Placing a Standard ad will mean that your advert will be live before the eyes of up to 4 million potential buyers, but we should make you aware that these adverts will be placed behind Premium listings

 | TBH the free ads are shit anyway, you get stuck right at the back and I'm betting a lot of people don't realise they're there, as the prices will climb to the highest in the paid adverts before you see the cheapest free ones, if you get what I mean. I had no calls at all whilst it was free, yet when I paid the tenner to upgrade I had interest the same day. Still no sale yet tho.

 | looking through Autotrader and Pistonheads, similar ones range from £2,500 to £3,750 with similar mileage. Didn't really know what to pitch it at but anything around the asking price She'd be happy with - don't think We've over priced it particulary so wait and see now. Just need it gone

 | It's amazing how much more diesels go for tbh, petrol ones of similar spec are half the price.

 | yeah, I was amazed given how much I lost on my Audi, granted it was petrol but the prices of the diesels vary so much, there was a black one on Autotrader for 3.75k which was almost identical spec
