Default Best Way to Sell a Mk1 TT

Anyone have a suggestion as to the best place for selling a TT online? I tried AutoTrader with no results. Have some concerns about EBay.
Is there a site that caters to unusual autos that I should check out?

Thanks for the suggestions, in advance.

No special site, A TT is not considered an exotic nor collectable yet. I've easily sold my 2 prior Mk 1s on Craigslist. Ad in local newspaper classifieds also got some interest.

Thanks for confirming that I was not missing something.
May decide to sell soon - after 16 years, maintenance, particularly of the plastic parts, is becoming a challenge!

Matt - I’ve been off this forum for a while - but I think I remember you from WAY aback. My 01 TT is still ticking perfectly - as it has less than 20k on it. What issues are you having and what $ do you want.

The TT has just under 40k miles on it. Mechanically no known problems. Just had to fix the door on the storage bin on the bulkhead between the seats, and now one of the glovebox door struts broke and took the “travel stop” off of the back of the glovebox. Was fortunate to find a used replacement which should be here in a day or two. I’m just getting to old to be chasing all of these petty issues. I think if we could get $6.5k for it my wife would finally agree to let it go.

The plastic bits on our cars do tend to get brittle and crumble as they age. It does become a challenging endeavor to fight Father Time.

I'm not sure what's getting brittle faster - the plastic parts or the car's owner!

Where are you located? We seem to have quite a few for sate here in texas. Primarily Craigslist. Anywhere from $3 to $7 K

I haven't yet explored Craigslist, but it's probably the next step. With under 40k miles on the clock and sound mechanical condition, I was hoping to see $6500. But more important to find it a good home and a loving family! (LOL)
