The second hand car market is in a dire state at the minute and ebay is definitely not the best place to sell your car.

When you relist it, don't have a buy it now price. Put a reserve on the car, and start the price at 99p - that way you'll get a few bids, which will naturally make other people interested.

Expect to get 15% to 20% below what the Glasses private sale price is if you're selling on ebay - it's an auction site.

would you recomend taking those wheels off, and puting the old ones on and selling those seperate?
thanks

Yes. Take all mods off the car and return it to standard. You'll get more for selling them separately and you'll also get more interest in the car from people looking for a standard MG

....and dont expect £3,800. Be realistic. If it is literally just sitting on your drive and you dont use it, as Mook says, start the Auction rock bottom and see where it goes! Good luck - you might need it!!
