Need advice selling a car (non Rover)

[dad1uk]

I need to sell my daughters car, but not sure which is the best way.
I usually sell cars on Ebay, but these are only cheap old bangers.
The car I need to sell is a Peugeot 5008 on a 60 plate.
It is a 5008 Sport HDi S-A.
It's a 1560 diesel engine, with an auto/flappy paddle gearbox.
It's in good condition drives very well and has done about 112,000 miles.
I was thinking Autotrader, would this be the best?
I reckon it's worth about £3500 to £4000......
Any advice received gratefully about price and best place to sell.
Many thanks

Gumtree and auto trader are both effective.

For a Birmingham based seller eBay would also be viable but use the classified ad option.

You can then allow interested buyers to send offers without ending the ad until one of them has paid and collected it.

As above. EBay's a funny platform to sell on though. Usually a complete pain in the rear and I still don't understand how it works after a number of years trying to sell cars. Take the last one I sold as an example. Was up for 9495 and the best offer I got was 8500. I dropped price to 8995 and I got asking price. How does that work?

If you do sell on eBay don't remove car until you've got cash in hand. Not worth wasting your time
