Where to sell a Volkswagen Golf?

I am ready to replace my VW Golf ('58 plate) which has done 32,000 miles. I've had no problems with it (it is in good condition - FSH etc) but fancy something a bit prettier.

I do around 9,000 miles a year usually on my own in the car. I wondered if you would recommend selling the VW at an auction, online or trying to get a good deal against my replacement car - I am considering a year old BMW coupe.

The simplest and safest way to sell is www.sure-sell.info and a Golf in good condition should do quite well there. But see what kind of offer you are made in exchange for an E92 coupe. I agree, they are very good looking cars and, unlike some coupes, they also seat four comfortably.
