Selling my car - your opinions please!
Short version: is it better to MOT, service and fix a couple of minor problems before selling an essentially good and reliable car, or drop the price and be honest with buyers?
Long version: I need to sell my car, as I live in London, and my brother who has been using it is also moving to London, so it won't be used. It's a P-reg Astra, with low mileage, full service history, and in good condition. I am loathe to sell it as it is worth more to me as a good reliable motor, but by the time I need it again it'll be 12 or so years old, and probably more hassle than its worth. It is due MOT and annual service at the end of Feb, and also needs a new radio aerial (tho it does work - fixed with glue and blutac!) and we suspect a small hole in the exhaust due to slightly loud engine noise. Probably all in all that would add up to �250-�300. Do you think I should get this sorted and then sell it, or sell it as is? I don't mind losing a bit of cash to save hassle, as the longer it takes to sell it the more trips home to my parents I'll have to make to see buyers and sort things out.
Thanks for your help. Also any tips for how to sell it with minimum hassle/stress would be appreciated!
