Tips On Selling Your Current Car Yourself

(NAPSI)-If you are buying a new car and want to get rid of your present vehicle, it can often be to your benefit to sell the car yourself. That's because you can often get more by selling a car than you would get for it as a trade-in. Chances are, if your car is over four years old, a trade-in will only yield about 25 percent of the market value. For many people, the difference could be several thousand dollars. However, sometimes you have to spend a little bit of time and money on marketing to save a lot-particularly when it comes to selling a used car. Here are some tips: 鈥?Give the inside and outside a thorough cleaning or spend the money to have it detailed. Let no nook and cranny go overlooked. 鈥?Gather up all service and repair records. Be up front about any incidents to build trust with any potential buyers.
