1997 BMW 7 Series
1997 BMW E38 735i – £3,000 ONO For sale is my October 1997 BMW 735i E38, a great example of BMW’s flagship 7 Series and an increasingly uncommon sight on UK roads. The car has covered 147,000 miles and has had a considerable amount of work carried out during my ownership, including: • Full service • Alternator rebuilt • New starter motor • Welding carried out to the arches and sills • New rear ABS sensors • New battery Key Features: • Double-glazed windows • 2 keys • Electric rear blind – fully working • Manual blinds for both rear side windows • Original classic cassette player • Radio fully working • Original ashtrays • V5 present and in my name Known Issues: • Alarm currently disabled • Air con top up needed • The car goes into Trans Failsafe Mode when attempting to drive. This is believed to potentially be a gearbox/A-drum issue, although this has not been confirmed. The asking price reflects this. Being a 1997 E38 735i, this would make an excellent project for a BMW enthusiast or someone looking

2010 Vauxhall Astra
Selling my Vauxhall Astra J 1.6L Petrol Elite due to a sudden internal engine seizure. The car is currently non-running and locked solid, making it a perfect project for a mechanic to drop a cheap engine into, or an absolute goldmine for a breaker. Being the top-of-the-range ELITE model, the interior is highly desirable and in great shape, featuring: • Full black leather interior • Heated front seats • Dual-zone climate control • Electronic handbrake • Auto-dimming rear-view mirror • Factory alloy wheels The major selling point is the mechanical parts. Over the last year, I have spent a lot of money maintaining this car with brand-new components that are ripe for salvaging or reusing: • Brand-New Clutch Kit (fitted this time last year, barely worn) • Brand-New Starter Motor • Brand-New Oil Cooler • New PCV Valve & Valve Cover • New Coolant Pipes & Heater Matrix Pipes Condition: The engine is completely seized and will need replacing or stripping. The bodywork is a bit tatty as expected for the age and 140k miles, but the interior is very clean and comfortable. (Open to sensible offers for a quick, hassle-free sale). Please note: The car does not drive and will need to be collected on a trailer or flatbed recovery truck.

1995 Volvo 850
This is one that I bought to save, it's a Volvo 850 CD 2.5 TDI Auto, but it has a sunroof, which is cool because CDs usually don't. It's low mileage, but had been off the road a very long time, and needs a gearbox. This price 'as listed' is for the car and a gearbox but as a going concern! If I get around to getting all the work done, it'll get re-listed. It DOES have an MOT but I've no idea how.

Got a car to sell?
I need three things: a photo, a price, and a location. That's it.* Nothing over £10,000.
*Well, that was the original plan. But Laura insisted we add a few more details to keep things above board. So now there's make, model, year, mileage… you get the idea.
Simple really. Someone has a car to sell. Someone else wants to buy a car. GeoffTrader puts the two in the same room and lets them get on with it.
We want to create a website where real people can sell real cars to other real people. No messing, no jumping through hoops... just cars.
