How to sell a bingo that's failed an mot

Post by rachey-pachey » Wed Aug 07, 2024 3:33 pm

Our Bongo has been part of our family for 15 years but has just failed it's Mot due to corrosion. The engine is good and it's got a side conversion. What is the best way to sell it? We can't be bothered selling it in seperate parts. Is it best selling it on Facebook or on this site or approaching a garage etc? Any advice would be welcome

Sorry to hear Bongy has failed.

Impossible to say what’s best, I'd put a few ads out and see what response you get.
Take a torch, toilet roll, and tea bags.

Selling your Bongo with a side conversion and a good engine can be done through a few different channels. Facebook Marketplace is a great option for reaching a wide audience, and it allows potential buyers to assess the vehicle easily. If you're not keen on dealing with individual buyers, you can also contact local garages or specialist dealers who may be interested in purchasing it for resale or parts. Another option is online car auction sites where enthusiasts may be more inclined to take on a project. Make sure to highlight the van's good points in the listing!
