Tunnie's bang on, you may be lucky and get an extra £50 or so.
Due to it's age, ebay would be the best place to advertise as opposed to Autotrader.

Mick, you may well have saved me a fair bit by letting me know...many thanks! I've got two or three vehicle to list  :y
I never pay attention to my ebay emails...that'll teach me to read them, I'd have missed out if you hadn't have let me know.
