Autotrader needs to have written in to its terms and conditions. No offers made over the phone as this is disrespectful. If a potential buyer thinks it’s too expensive then don’t make an offer! Autot... See more

Very easy and simple

Very easy and simple, the auto fill details are excellent.
Prices are high and I'm not sure exactly what I pay for aside from getting a listing which needs addressing as £53 for 3 weeks is steep and there were 2 higher levels after too!!

Sold my motorbike on Auto Trader in…

Sold my motorbike on Auto Trader in just three days and couldn’t be happier. The listing process was straightforward, the advert looked professional, and I had genuine enquiries almost immediately. No timewasters, no hassle — just serious buyers who were ready to move. The whole experience was smooth from start to finish, and I’d definitely use Auto Trader again for selling a vehicle.
