Where can I sell a Rover 75 Connoisseur?

Sadly my father has just passed away and will no longer be able to drive his pride and joy, a dark green 2003 Rover 75 Connoisseur Auto 4 door 2-litre petrol saloon. It is in very good condition, beautiful leather interior and with 21,000 miles on the clock. The classic one owner, regularly serviced and running as smoothly as ever. It has almost a full year's MOT. I now have to sell it and wonder which is the best avenue in order to get a fair price and what would that be?

This is a potential future classic, sadly with the 2.0-litre V6 (for which parts are difficult to obtain). Trade 'book' value is a joke at just £1430. Dealer retail is better at £2655. Because of the classic potential there is already at least one specialist: swallowsrestcarsales.co.uk/
