Adaptor plug

I have been driving automatic cars for more than thirty years and have found that your advice to left foot brake to be a great advantage.
My reason for writing however is to seek advice on the disposal of a converted Renault Kango. My handicapped friend has recently died and his widow wishes to dispose of this vehicle. Could you suggest some company that might take the strain out of selling it for her, as I note that quite frequently you suggest a company that offers its service for ordinary cars.
