1988 Mercedes 300SE for sale, where to advertise?

romperstomper · 18-05-2009 03:21PM #1

hi guys, i'm trying to get rid of my father's old car. its a lovely and clean 1988 300SE. Only problem is i don't know which one of the fifty car sites would suit. trying to do this without spending too much either so the cheaper the better.

any ideas?

adverts.ie & buyandsell are free

adverts seems to be tyre kicker central. i have never even gotten a phone call out of them despite having the car advertised before

ditto the broke and stolen

Move this thread to the Classics forum, its the old Merc addicts help centre over there:D

Was thinking the same thing myself - OP, would you like me to move it?

Seeing as Carzone gets the most traffic (I'm pretty sure), if it's only €40 for a month to get it shifted I don't see why not, I had the same problem with adverts and it just wrecked my head after a while. Didn't have the car on Carzone a week before it was bought.

Donedeal is popular too.

romperstomper · 18-05-2009 05:10PM

any sites besides B&S and Adverts that are free and people use?

donedeal @ € 3 is good ;pay by phone no credit card necessary.
also free entry at the monent at belgardauctions.ie. This car might make good money at auction
and if it s not taxed auction crowd will collect it for you (for a fee)

I have seen a lot of Mercs on www.classiccarsales.ie
This seems to be a specalist type website so not to sure what kind of sales they get.
Someone also told me to watch www.gumtree.ie I believe it's free to advertise there so nothing to lose.
i'm on the hunt for a classic at the moment but am waiting to see what's for sale at the shows around the country.:)

No, but it doesn't need two separate threads

Threads merged...

carzone.ie seem to be the leaders, typcial day would be 1.3million to 1.5 million page views
donedeal.ie have about 1 to 1.1 million page views per day, but just remember they sell boats, guitars, toilet paper etc.
so to settle to arguement carzone are definitely the most viewed site for cars.
buyandsell are about 20,000 pvs per day, cause their website is **** i imagine.

why is it the most expensive is most popular????!!!

right now up on adverts, broke & stolen, gumtree and done deal. fingers crossed and i hope it works! thanks all for the replies and if there is anywhere else i should be posting it please let me know (dublin.craigslist.org looks VERY quiet)
