1. Try to make your used car for sale look great, take it to an expert detail individual and pay out some money to make it seem great, or spend a full day and do it yourself. Make sure to clean the engine, underneath, door jams, etc.

2. Replace the oil and all fluids. Clean the radiator and put new antifreeze. Make sure the brake fluid is clean. You may also need to change the transmission and differential oil.

3. Be certain that your brakes and also tires are in good shape. This is something which everyone will check. If you get some noise in your brake, check out the brake shoe and disc brake condition. You can even test shock absorber for the convenience of driver and passenger

4. Look at the light and be certain that there are no lights in your dashboard. When I say lights, I mean check engine, service engine, change oil, etc. I guess I should say lights on your gauges. This is a direct turnoff for a used car for sale.

5. Store your used car in a high traffic location to be seen. This can be probably the most essential of all tips. The more people see your car for sale, the better your chance of selling your car.

6. Value your car where it will sell. Take it through your local dealer and ask the used car supervisor for pricing advice. Most will be more than happy to help, especially if it is the dealership you intend to purchase from once you sell your car.

7. Put a phone number that anyone can be reached. I realize this seems crazy, but many people put a home number when they are never home. Put your telephone number so it is possible to be reached any time.

These are just some tips to help you get a lot of money for selling your used car.
