How to Sell Your Used Car for the
Best Possible Price
11 Waller TerraceAddington

We all want to get the best possible price possible when we
sell anything.
So we'll teach you how to get the best possible price when you sell
your car.
By learning a few tricks from the Car Dealers.
1: The first thing that makes a big difference is appearance.
You're going to have a hard time selling your car when you can't
see the carpet.
Or when the engine is leaking all over the engine.
These make people think that you didn't care about your car.
Even if you actually do. It just looks bad.
Dealers always prepare their cars for sale by getting them
professionally groomed and detailed.
2: Dealers know that smart buyers check fluids.
It tells them if you've actually serviced the car.
Clean oil is a gold colour. Used oil is black. Show the potential
buyer the gold.
Antifreeze should be bright pink or bright green depending on
your car – and “Full” when cold.
Needs a top-up!
Oil and coolant is cheap. Replace it if it needs to be done.
3: Get the biggest audience to see that your car is for sale. Online listings are usually really good.
The key to a good online listing is:- Good Photos
- Good Description
Photos should be clear and relevant. Take good shots of
important things like the engine, tire tread, wheels, dashboard and
odometer.
And tell the potential buyers about any obvious damage. It
saves everyone time.
Nice and tidy.
Look at all that tread. This buyer won't have to worry about replacing tires anytime
soon.
Descriptions should be sharp and to the point.
Think: Feature + Benefit.
Explain what these buttons do.
4: Pricing. Price it so it sells.
Or else you'll end up with it forever and it will be worth
nothing.Sharp prices generate interest.
The best possible price is the price that you can sell it for – that
is, what people are prepared to pay for it.
Expired auction listings that met reserve are good indicators of
what things are selling for.
Show off your car with a test drive. Test drives can be fun.
Before you let them take your car for a test drive – take their:
Insurance DetailsDrivers Licence Details
Contact Details
And make sure your insurance covers test drivers. Give them a
call.
Go with them if you're not sure about their motivations.
Sold? Now what?
Don't let the buyer take the car until they've changed the
ownership into their name and have paid in full.
Thanks for reading. We hope this helps you sell your car for the
price you want.
