Where can I sell my Toyota Hilux Surf?

I have a Toyota Hilux Surf SSR-G 3 litre diesel - first registered in 1993 and imported in 2005. It had a new engine in May 2007 that has done 104,000 miles. What would be the best method to sell it?

Probably Autotrader or eBay. But be prepared for the great unwashed to land on your doorstep, do not allow anyone who cannot furnish proper insurance details to test drive it, and take payment only in cash, in a bank, where you can instantly bank it. That is the ONLY safe way. Or consign to www.sure-sell.info , which is the safest way of all.
