Hi
I recently sold my car on ebay. I had a lot of interest and sold it for the 'buy it now' price. It was all very easy and went well. Let me know if you have any specific questions.

Thanks!
Right, we're going to give it a go! Anyone want a Fiat Multipla??

how much?
we're looking (still!!)for a decent car, and have been looking frequently on ebay.

errrr... haven't quite decided! We are getting a new car from a dealer miles away (internet deal, brilliant) which is why we aren't part-exchanging, but I'm finding all the price guides a bit confusing. I think we should be looking to get about £5k? We're in Edinburgh, by the way! And it is a cool car, we've just got fed up with always having a child in the front interrupting any effort to finish a sentence! Wasn't so bad when it was a little tot in a car seat, but ds2 now 3 and very vocal, plus all 4 of them fight endlessly about who gets to sit in the front.

yes, that's what puts me off the mulitipla,I have a hard enough time concentrating with my kids around at the best of times, but if they are sat in the front...aaaaaaahhhhhhhh!

Have you a link for your 'dealer'(!?) and did you test drive/see your new car before?

Thanks for the tips - have to get car all shiny clean and photographed first - not easy to identify its better side!
The 'dealer' is here and although we haven't quite got the new car yet I would strongly recommend them so far, much cheaper than local Citroen dealership, but we did test drive the new car there, and gave them the chance to match the offer but they couldn't.
