Options to sell my old Mgb E bay or auto trader etc?

I have got to get rid of my old MGB gt that is suitable for spares or a rebuild , or most probably a reg donor as it is tax exempt and ideal for someone doing a chrome bumper conversion.
I have just looked on E bay and it seems as if the fees will be about £40 even if i only get £300 for it but it does seem the best option to advertise it to get to people looking for that type of car, I am also considering Auto trader and think that will only cost about £10 but may not get the response i want.
Is there any other options to get a good response?MG forums etc that anyone knows of?.

Gumtree is pretty good and free, also put it on the MG owners forum.

I sold my webers on piston heads. Even more time wasters than ebay if thats posable but they did sell and without the costs and stupid feedback of ebay.

I believe you can place free Ads on http://www.carandclassic.com, so it might be worth a look.

Agree that some of th efree sites are very good.
But ebay can be good too. I have sold a few cars over the years using the "classifieds" adverts. I think it was £12 if it is under £1000 (or something similar) and does reach a wide audience.
Still, give the freebies a try first!
