Hi Everyone,

This is my link to my Mini Cooper - Park lane. It has been on various sites now for sale, and Autotrader.
Would anyone be able to give me advice on how to make this ad more appealing? Its a goregous car, excellent condition throughout!!
42,800 miles, royal grey, chrome pack and chilli pack - more extras than the standard mini cooper.
First to see should by seriously ....but have had no calls yet - The only reason i am selling is due to needing a bigger car... Will be sad to see it go!
I have never had any problems with the car and its been a pleasure to drive / own.


Feedback would be great, thank you....

I cannot see anything really wrong with your ad but if you are going for a bigger car have you thought about trading it in??

As we are a Classic Mini forum have a look at this forum

http://www.mini2.com/forum/mini-one/

and ask there as well.

Good luck with the sale.

Hi Guys,

I had a feeling it was more of a classic site, but you know thought that someone may be able to help me out or see any other reasons why my car may not be selling.
Its been on for 2 weeks now.
I have thought about trading it in, but as everyone should know they want a seriously rediculous price for the car and i am not willing to loose out on that much money, also i m looking for a specific car and it would be nice to keep my options open as much as i can to finding another one.
Its currently on Gum tree, freeads and autotrader.

but thanks guys, any more advice would be great, thank you

Love the classic minis I did own one for my first car!! lol

Feeling a little used...
Binis like that are 2 a penny which is probably why there isn't much interest, plus dealers are trying to shift new 13 plates which means a glut of used cars.

[laura3]

Thanks for your help anyway... peeps

Was not using anyone... am very genuine..ha ha :-( - anyway am still a mini fan so have every right to check out the forums!! lol

Anyway not everyone can afford a 13 plate car! lol ...

[TheMiniDream]

Try widenin your audience pics of car on shops for sale, auto trader,
eBay, you'll have far more people looking that way!

i bought a near identical car with 40000 miles and two owners, chrome pack etc etc same age back end of last year for a bit cheaper than you are advertising. maybe its just priced a bit high.

The Park lane isnt that common actually........... Especially in the R50 guise.



To the OP, its lised a tad high, even though its low mileage id say its 5.5k top.......


Good luck with the sale. If you px, you wont get that much for it. See if you can get a prviate sale.
