Before putting the Gazelle up for sale, you need to prepare it for this. Even a not very presentable car can be presented in a favorable light. Try to look at the Gazelle through the eyes of the buyer in order to evaluate not only the pros, but also the cons of the car.
Instructions
Step 1
First, decide on the time during which you need to sell the Gazelle. If it is several months, then set the price for the car with a margin. However, please note that if within a couple of weeks no one is interested in your ad, the price is most likely too high. If you need to sell the Gazelle as soon as possible, the price will have to be set lower in order to attract buyers.
Step 2
Replace the parts in the car that are faulty or unpresentable. The first impression of the buyer plays one of the decisive roles, therefore it is important to present the car in front of him in all its glory. Pay attention to even the smallest things. Try to evaluate your car through the eyes of a potential buyer, imagine what he wants to check. In case of malfunction, repair the radio tape recorder, replace the damaged lamps and headlights, and the torn upholstery. At the same time, it is not worth focusing on any hidden defects.
Step 3
Wash your car. As a rule, a customer has a good impression when he sees a clean and well-groomed car. Order a dry cleaning of the interior, carefully wipe off all stains on the car body and on the glass. If there are unpleasant odors in the cabin, remove them. Particular attention should be paid to what is under the hood. Often, buyers drop in there without even looking at the interior and bodywork. Treat oil stains on the radiator and engine. But do not overdo it with cleaning, so as not to raise additional suspicion.
Step 4
Place ads in newspapers, on Internet forums. Indicate the main characteristics: car brand, body type, year of manufacture, price, as well as contact information. Additionally, you can specify the color, mileage, engine characteristics and other information that can favorably distinguish your Gazelle from the rest. Also place a "For Sale" sign with contact details under the glass of the car. This will help attract additional buyers.
Step 5
Be confident when talking to callers. Tell us in advance about the disadvantages of the car, if any. They will most likely show up at the meeting anyway, but your sincerity will be appreciated. Many buyers want to lower the price of the car they buy. If your price is final, then write in the ad that bargaining is not appropriate.
