I've been cold called by these guys who will apparently list all my stock on facebook marketplace for £25 per month, with a 1 month free trial. Doesnt sound expensive, wondering if anyone else uses them?

Yes, signed up a couple of weeks ago.  My feed should be via our website which is AA, for some reason they are dragging their heals to set up so FBA are taking a feed via Autotrader.  I have stopped advertising with AT so having to upload stock manually to dealer portal and they are taking a feed from there.  Seems to work, no proper enquiries yet however.

I don't see the point personally if its just going onto the marketplace - which is the equivalent of Sphock and Gumtree.

You need your own page with promoted / boosted posts

Agreed, I originally signed up, then cancelled because only pieces of my adverts were showing. I do it myself now, takes a few minutes to upload an advert. Just one direct sale so far......

FB Marketplace is the new gumtree. Absolutely great for disposing of PX shitters.

He's damn right, not much potential for full price retail stuff but OK as a "bangers 4 cash" outlet.

I find Facebook so hit and miss. I think it is all about getting a few people to click on your listing as soon as it goes up. If they do it stays at the top of the list for a while and have loads of the " is this still available messages"

Have had a bit of success but mainly with the cheaper cars. Had over 100 messages about a spares or repair cooper s that wasnt that cheap but it sold.
