I'm selling my Renault Laguna, what's the best way to do this?

The time has come to sell my lovely reliable and comfortable Renault Laguna. It has been owned since new (2007) and is a diesel with 211000 miles. It has passed its MOT and is good to June 2024. There's a full service history. The car interior and exterior are okay for the age of the car. Its not been in any accidents.

What is the best way to sell the car? And what sort of price can I expect?

If you're looking for the best price for your Laguna, normally a private sale is the best way to achieve this. Online car buyers and dealers will offer trade-in values, which are typically lower than private sale prices and forecourt prices, although you may wish to compare these values for your own peace of mind.

If you are selling privately we would suggest placing an ad online, either through social media sales pages or websites that carry classified ads. It is also worth cleaning your car and taking good quality images, as well as organising all the paperwork.
