I have to say that having read various second hand car books and supplements, Autotrader still rules all. They have an unbeaten number of adverts in their publication and the magazine is in depth. It doesnt just include private ad's but also trade ad's and it even has a buyers guide in there as well. The magazine is well seperated into good sections. These include Prestige Motors, Collectors and Classics, Bargains (1000-00 and under), General cars, sports, diesel etc etc and theres also a Commercial section with Vans, minibuses, hgv's and also a spot for Motorcycles, caravans and the section at the back includes breakers and salvage and insurance and services. Each section is split into alphabetical brand names so if your looking for anything from an Austin Maestro to an MG F or from a Citroen Berlingo to a Leyland lorry, this is the magazine for you.
Also they have an excellent website at www.autotrader.co.uk with a selection of the cars that appear in the magazine and a lot more also with an excellent search facility letting you specify anything from age to mileage to cost to model. Also they have links to a number of online insurance quotation services.
