    So iv got a 99 toyota levin that im trying to sell. Iv decided to go back to a 1.2 or 1.3, but im trying to sell the levin for 3k but no ones interested. Is it like that everywhere?

    That seems to be a pretty reasonable price. Advertise it everywhere including local shops. What websites have you it up on? Try adverts.ie(free) and donedeal.ie (€3) seems to be fairly popular. You'll sell it eventually; just have to be patient!:)

    If you stick it up on donedeal...it'll only cost 3euro!

    You'll probably have an offer of a swap later on that day for a 1.3 starlet or something!

    Iv gotten offers of swaps but its all performance cars. I just want a nice normal car now. Iv had it in buy and sell and gumtree and my numbers on the car. Im not driving it anymore and its just sittn there. Boyfriend doesnt want it either, hes a motorbike man.

    gumtree IMHO not a great place to sell cars...
    put it up on donedeal, very cheap....

    or put it up on Carzone... more expemsive, but a lot more people looking for cars are searching there....

    price seems reasonable, for a car of that year..

    Wel the price is reasonable because it needs a side skirt and a panel needs to be resprayed. Il put it up on donedeal and carzone. Hopefully it will sell cause im moving soon and dont want to bring it with me.

    ahhh ... its damaged.... even small damage is going to put ptential buyers looking at it, due to the fact that there are clean straight ones available....

    But afaik for the same year it is still 2 or 3k cheaper and the work would cost less than 3 or 4 hundred. I really dont want to have to send it in to be fixed and im broke wit moving. Should i let it go cheaper.? I thought it was a good price.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,272 ✭✭✭✭Atomic Pineapple


    yes if you want it gone let it go cheaper, the market has crashed and you might see levins advertised for more but there only selling for 3 - 4 k, one that needs work no matter how little it could cost will be off putting and will have to be very cheap so that its a bargain

    As hard as it is to sell a car in the current market it'll be much harder to sell a car if it needs work doing to it.

    So after havin a think i decided to put it down to 2400. Would that be more appealing?

    will make it a bit more appealing, but I would say repair the couple of faults, wax and shine her up, make it as near mint as possible...
