Setting the right price is vital for a quick sale – too high and you won't get much interest, too low and you're giving money away. The best way to set the right price is to search for cars of the same age, condition, mileage and those with similar extras

Remember, dealers price their cars higher as they need to cover their costs and make a profit. Private sellers don't have the same overheads, so make sure you price yours in-line with other private sellers.
The key is to price your car just above what you expect to receive, leaving room to negotiate as everyone likes to think they're getting a bargain.
Be realistic and don't overinflate your price – potential buyers will lose interest.
