I sold my car half a year ago using autotrader website.
There is autotrader "journal", but it was not very cost-effective, as far as i know.
i recommend you to use the "website only" option.
Prices people give to their own cars are usually too high for others to buy.
Reasonably-priced cars are sold soon after the prices are offered.
So most of the advertisements you find in their website are those left without buyers, often more than several weeks because their prices are not attractive enough for the cars.
By the way,
Even too-high prices invite many e-mails
which usually say something like,
"i am interested in your car,
but i am living in spain(or somewhere else) and so someone on behalf of me comes up to you to pay you for the car and send it to me. So, tell me your final price as soon as possible. i am really interested in your car"
yes, very many. (why buy an ordinary second hand car in UK to send to Spain for not-reasonable price???)
i happen to have a neighbour in car business, and he told me "This is called "money-laundering". Ignore them."
Sometimes i think, could i get 1k pounds more?
but i am not a gambler.
