Creating a Listing on Gumtree
Login to your Gumtree account or create one if you are new to the platform. Click on the 'Post an Ad' button and select the 'Cars & Vehicles' category. Provide details about your car including make, model, year, mileage, and condition. Upload high-quality photos of your car from different angles to attract potential buyers. Set a competitive price for your car based on its market value and condition. Include a detailed description highlighting the key features and any upgrades or modifications.
Interacting with Potential Buyers
Respond promptly to inquiries from interested buyers and provide accurate information about your car. Arrange viewings for serious buyers and accompany them on test drives. Negotiate the price with potential buyers but be firm on your bottom line. Ensure all paperwork is in order including the car's registration documents and service history.
Finalizing the Sale
Once you have found a suitable buyer, finalize the sale price and agree on the payment method. Transfer the ownership of the car by completing the necessary paperwork and handing over the keys. Ensure both parties sign a sales agreement to protect both the buyer and the seller. Remove your listing from Gumtree once the sale is complete to avoid further inquiries.
