Didnt get many calls and the first call was dealer, second was scammer i made the mistake in sharing my number as they sounded genuine! 3rd and final call was dealer but they paid more than other dealer offers so not quite the experience i was expecting but at least it sold! just not impressed with the fake buyer expecting delivery 300 miles away! but overall auto trader does offer some privacy so my mistake giving number out.

PRIVATE TRADER - SECOND CLASS SERVICE
Still waiting for approval to list a car as a private trader. It takes forever and no one ever responds. They have the V5, driving licence and registration so what is the problem?

Unprompted review
Easy to place advertise and amend
Easy to use,place and edit the advertisment. We had the advertise until it was sold package, which was a good choice because it did take a couple of months to sell the car. Auto trader messaged after a few weeks asking if we still wanted to advertise it and all we had to do was reply yes or no, we replied yes and the advert continued. When the car was sold I messaged No in the same message and that ended the advert. Great experience and extremely easy to use.
