Maximise the value of your car through Autotrader
Using Autotrader you cut out the middle men dealers such that you get the profit they were going to make out of you, plus your buyer gets a good deal. It does take more ‘effort’ to develop a good advert, however, take advice from “CarVeto" on how best to construct your advert to optimise reach, interest, and potential buyers.

Car sold and picked up within 24 hours of placing the ad.. Beat that.
Help with constructing the ad was great. I had 5 calls within an hour of the ad going live and the the car was sold and picked up the next day all within 24 hours of posting the ad. My buyer travelled for 4.5 hours by train to pick up the car. I not sure anywhere can sell a private sale any quicker. Well done Autotrader.

Be Aware!!
I previously had a lot of trust in Autotrader UK.
That was until my most recent purchase.
I had no idea Autotrader UK would allow traders to falsely advertising cars after they have sent the cars full information to the trader. False advertising is against the 2015 Consumer Rights Act. I told them that ZOOM AUTOS LONDON, had falsely advertised features on the car I bought. The upshot is, (as per emails received), Autotrader UK sends e.g. ZOOM AUTOS LONDON what features a car has going by the cars registration number. ZOOM AUTOS LONDON for instance, is then allowed to dramatically scale up the spec a car has!!! Autotrader UK should be held accountable for this. I will be sending the emails to trading standards to get their opinion.
