Best way to sell a mid-aged 911 in London

I'm looking to sell my 1996 plate 911 Targa (993 type).

Good condition; 84,000 miles, I suspect it's worth around the low 20k mark. I live in central London. What's the best way for me to sell it to get a good price?

Are there risks going private? Where would a buyer test drive it (should I care)? What's the safest way for a buyer to transfer me 20k safely?

Extreme risks trying to sell a car like this privately. Uninsured test drives. Thieves finding out where the car lives, stealing it later and breaking it for parts. Rubber bank drafts. The safest, most hassle free way to unload is www.sure-sell.info . It's a gamble, but one that often comes good. And you get your money in 4 working days.
