Default Best place to advertise car, please?!?

Sadly having to sell the car and am after a quick sale. Any advice or tips regarding the best place to advertise it? Going for a blanket approach. Autotrader seems to have hundreds of Imprezas for sale so seems a bit of a waste of time and eBay doesn't seem to create any interest whatsoever in reasonable cars I've seen on there recently!

All help appreciated!

Cheers

Autotrader & eBay...bought and sold my last 5 cars on there...

eBay is only for coverage, as many people see the add and usually they will come see the car and buy it b4 the auction end...because remember if you want to sell your car your car the more people that see it the more it will increase your chances..

Pistonheads is good...but really not many people look there...i did not know of the site till i got a scoob and joind scoobynet...many people i know dnt know about that site....99% of the people do look in the auto trader...

and if you are expecting a quick sale, dnt over price...like many people do...

Thanks for the comments guys!

I had shyed away from eBay as lots of reasonable examples seemed to be closing with no bids, but I hadn't considered people may buy before the auction ends.

I'll get an ebay ad running tomorrow, hopefully.

I've stuck a glorious advert on www.pistonheads.com but there are 200 other imprezas on there and as wonderful, beautiful, pristine and reasonably priced my Impreza is, it may struggle to stand out there!

I'm googling for every other advertising opportunity I can find!

Cheers!

Charlie.
