Recommended Posts

sadly its not been sold yet, but as i havent sold a car privately before, or bought one for that matter. i wondered how you go about it...

im sure you knowledgable folk know how. im more concerned about when both parties agree the sale, where do you go from there....money wise, logbook stuff and the rest....

thanks folks......

ps look at this bad boy thats just come up for sale.....might have someone coming to see mine next week...

Its simple really

Exchange money if its a cheque bankers draft electronic ensure its cleared fully before you let them take the car (ie speak to your bank) if its cash personally i'd take it to the bank and pay it in (especially with the sum your dealing with) but thats upto you as i'm aware you've probably seen a few dodgy notes in your time.

Ensure the car is empty of all your stuff check the cd/radio for cd

Give them all the paperwork keys locking wheel nut (nothing worse) etc.

Give them the new keepers part of the log book not the larger piece (ensure that is filled in with all their details and that they sign and date it (it is your responsibility not theirs to inform the dvla of ownership transfer) otherwise you could end up with speeding tickets etc.

After that i guess its hope you have a good year and the bonus comes in you'll need it to pay for the ostiapath for the bad back your going to get getting in and out of that bloody corgi model your calling the dream drive.

GLWTS.

If you end up selling your scoob to someone who lives abroad Mr S, give me a shout - I've got a bit of experience in those particular types of issues that come with it, having sold my last 2 to people in Spain and Sweden respectively!! :(
