Shopping for a business - Sim-O

I am thinking about going into business for myself, and one of the options is buying a small business.
Where would be a good place to look for businesses for sale? There is a 'be your own boss' section on fish4, but is there any where else that would be good for motortrade businesses?

I don't know who to talk to or where to get started with this and thought there must be BRer that knows.

Thanx for any help.
