Any suggestions on the best place to sell my 110? I work abroad most of the time and having it sitting on the drive isn’t doing it any good. Just spent £1,000 on service and getting it through MOT. 

Ebay was suggested but I can’t be bothered with all of the dodgy buyers out there.

Not sure if there is a ‘best’ place really. I’ve considered buying from an established specialist dealer in LRO on several occasions, as private is a minefield; even some of the so called dealers turn out to be shysters in my experience. There’s nothing more off putting than a seller telling you not to forget your money! ?

I bought my 110 through an established dealer last December and sold my SIII hybrid earlier this month ( for £250 more than I paid for it five years ago! ) and I genuinely think it was my blatant and blunt honesty which swung the sale. I didn’t dress it up to be something it wasn’t; describing all its bad points as well as it’s good points, to the point I suggested a FL2 TD4 or Disco 2 TD5 might be a better buy for him. But he wanted it. 

Wherever you decide to go ( and I’m not suggesting you’re dishonest )  my over riding advice would be to just be bluntly honest. I think it goes a long way in establishing trust. Good luck.

It's a bit of a nightmare selling these days. With all the dreamers and scammers out there. I will say that land rovers do seem to attract more than a few. Advertise one for say 14k and be sure you will get the I will give you 8 brigade arrive to waste a day for you. I like you have one sitting doing nothing. Although I would like to sell I just can't be bothered with all the messers and dreamers out there. Maybe if you have a local dealer near you that could sell it for you on a commission basis might be a idea.

Yes and not helped by being out of the country most of the time. I think through a dealers on commission is the best way. I’ll have a chat with the guys who do the work on it, CSK in Hoddesdon, Herts if anybody knows them.
