Selling a car in Lethbridge
Lethbridge sits in the southern prairie on the edge of the coulees, is one of the windiest cities in the country, and serves a large irrigated farming district. It has a university and a college, and the high-level rail bridge over the valley is its landmark.
Driving is essential and the city is split by the river valley, so agree which side. The wind here is constant rather than occasional, which matters for anything being loaded onto an open trailer.
The wind here is constant rather than occasional. On anything that lived outdoors, check for abrasion and for fasteners worked loose — it is a kind of wear that most sellers genuinely have not noticed.
Lethbridge, in Alberta, has around 100,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Calgary, Edmonton and Red Deer are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Lethbridge

- Recent cambelt, tyres and brakes with proof
What pulls it down
- Outstanding finance, which prevents a clean sale
- Warning lights left unresolved
Working out what yours is worth
- Check the vehicle against a history database
- Note mileage, owner count and exact specification
Getting it ready

- Note the mileage, MOT expiry date, number of previous keepers and whether there is any outstanding finance — finance must be settled or disclosed.
