    Advantages Advantages Choice, easily navigated, availability of reviews and car related links

    Disadvantages Disadvantages too much choice..!

    Since landing myself a new job opportunity 55 miles away (nice career development move!) I have been on the car buying merry go round with a vengeance. Obviously for that distance both fuel economy and comfort are of utmost importance and I am looking for something quite rare - notably a diesel automatic vehicle, budget was stretching to a 3-5yr old vehicle depending on how prestigious a model I elected for, and low mileage was a factor - as I will no doubt be doing 100,000 miles in the next 3 years without doing a lot more than commuting. In years previous, the autotrader magazine has always ... more

    ~ ~ As most of you are already probably aware, I am a taxi-driver here in the Fair City of Dublin, Ireland for the past seven years or so. And any of you who have read my car reviews will also be aware of my obvious attachment to Nissan motor cars. In July 1999, I found myself on the lookout for a replacement for my trusty 1991 Nissan Bluebird, which was long past due for an honourable retirement. I had a notion that I could just possibly manage to find another Bluebird in good condition, so I began my usual round of daily and evening newspapers, local garages, and main dealers. And there my ... more

    Advantages Advantages Easy, full of features

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Can be slow and search doesn't work 100% of the time

    It's that time again for me - summer is pretty much here, and every loaded person is out showing off in their brand new convertibles - whilst I'm stuck with a (quite reasonable) V reg 306 that I'm thoroughly bored with now. I want a different car. Mind you, I want a different car all the time - you see, I'm someone who gets very bored with cars, very quickly. I see myself having the following options: * I could part exchange my car (probably close to trade price) for another new or used car, and loose money, but save quite a bit of hassle, and hopefully come out of it all with a reasonable car ... more

    Advantages Advantages expansive data base

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None really

    Autotrader is an icon of the eighties that has moved into the new century with grace and skill. This is not through active management but it has been driven by market forces and as such it has survived. Both a magazine and a website, it is dedicated to the sole aim of selling cars and car accessories to the Great British public and it does this very successfully. The website is found at www.autotrader.co.uk . It has a search facility that allows you to find your desired motor quickly and easily. The Basic search allows you to search for manufacturer and model only. This is useful if you are ... more

    Advantages Advantages Nice quick website.

    Ive been a fan of the autotrader since I started using the magazine back in the dark ages when I was 18.Ive tried a lot of different ways to selling cars, via free and local papers, agencys , and local shop windows.The one that Ive had the most success out of by a long way is the Autotrader.I how this as I always ask the person whom have bought the car where they saw it advertised, so I know where to look advertise in the future. I have to say since the introducion of WWW.autotrader.co.uk Im even more impressed with its service.Every time you advertise in your local Autotrader your picture ... more
