Exclamation I need your help!

A year ago I moved in with my boyfriend, and my parents took my new beetle, flower power, away and sold it. I've been driving around a Jetta VR6 since, and I am trying to sell it to get me another beetle! I have it on craigslist here --

97 Jetta VR6
more info about it here http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=4734922

And if any of you are from the area, and knows someone who needs a car please help me and spread the word!

Any help would be appreciated for this NB lover

thanks

Be more specific in your ad. List the features of the car in an easy to read format. List important things such as engine type, transmission type, interior features, etc. DON'T use the crappy small craigslist pictures. Get an account at Photobucket or similar and post nice big pictures. Post a LOT of them. Take 20+ pictures and post them in your ad. Take shots of the front, back, sides, interior from many angles, Odometer, guage cluster, radio, under the hood, inside door panels, the owner's manual, take a couple pics as it's getting dark with the car's external lights on, etc. Use proper English. I know this one should be a given, but those who are out to spend money will apreciate a well written ad. Just sayin.

I have sold many large ticket items on craigslist (A truck, Jeep, 2 motorcycles, a motorhome trailer, etc) and if you want it sold, show it with your ad! Your current ad doesn't scream, "BUY ME!" and it doesn't look as though you really want to sell the car based on your ad. Spend more than 3 minutes throwing an ad up and make it nice. I have sold ALL of the big ticket items sooner than expected and received more money than expected because I spent 20 minutes on a GOOD ad.

You asked for help so....

I have tried that, but most won't do straight up trades, and I dont have the extra added cash they would ask of me.
