American member seeking advice on sale

[Dx3]

Gentlemen,

I’m a long time member of ClubLexus in the USA. I’m currently visiting my parents in Oxfordshire and my dad is selling his 2016 IS300h. My parents are a little older and aren’t really sure where to list it. They were going to put it on Autotrader. Back home, no-one really uses it as much as other sites. Where would you guys recommend? Appreciate your time! Thanks,

Jonathan

I think AutoTrader is good as well.

Ok understood. Thanks man. It seemed like it was mostly car dealers selling on there. I saw very few private sales listed.

There are quite a number of private sellers on there.

I looked at 3 pages of IS300h and I saw maybe 2 private sellers. Perhaps that’s a good thing for my parents then as a lot of people (at least in the US) prefer buying privately.

I know I prefer private if buying.

Good luck.

I’m not familiar with that. Is it a website?

yes, you put photos, they give you a price and if you are happy with that they  then run an auction with cardealers.

 

I got a very good price and they paid the money without any significant hassle

Hmmmm would have been better “without any hassle” or is that what you meant ?         😉
