Hi
Just looking for a bit of advice as I've not sold a car privately before. It's a 2010 BMW 320d (mileage < 60K) I'm looking to sell, if that makes any difference.
Getting it professionally valeted seems like a decent investment. Doing it before taking sale photos seems logical, but I'm just wondering what people would advise doing then. Stick a car cover on it and not touch it until potential buyers come along? Or just carry on using it? It's inevitable it'll get a little dirty if I use it, but it seems impractical to get it valeted prior to each viewing (assuming I'm not lucky enough to get an acceptable offer quickly).
Secondly, is it worth it as the seller having a vehicle inspection such as the RAC offer here? Vehicle was MOT-ed November '15 and I've had no discernible problems with it since then.
Thanks in advance for advice.
