My advert has been on Autotrader since…
My advert has been on Autotrader since around mid-September 2025, so just over a month now. I’ve found the experience very good overall. I received genuine enquiries from serious buyers, and Autotrader made it easy to update my advert whenever I needed to.
I also appreciated that there was just a one-time fee of £50, unlike other sites that charge weekly fees of around £17. The quality of people who contacted me through Autotrader seemed much more professional compared to other platforms I tried.
Overall, I’m very happy with the service and would definitely recommend Autotrader to anyone looking to sell their vehicle.
Excellent customer service .
In regards to the below review about…
In regards to the below review about the dodgy car dealership called RS Motors Nottingham NG7. I sent the information and the reviews to the email address provided below. So I will be awaiting to hear your findings of your investigation of the dodgy car dealership.
Please note the third party Feefo who you outsource your reviews do not allow negative reviews on your website to warn out customers unlike someone like Trustpilot, and only allows positive review which I don't have. Hence I will request any off your customers or visitors to your website see if its actually possible to put up a genuine especially negative review on your website.
Therefore this mean unfortunately the majority of the reviews on your website can not be genuine at all. It's such a shame that such a well known brand like Autotrader does not care about it brand no more, and only seems to be only interested in the short and quick ££££s and not it's long term image like the dodgy car dealer RS MOTORS Nottingham yhat you advertise with

The telephone number you’re giving out for potential buyers isn’t mine, my number is 07775772760, the number you’re giving out to the public is 01672595233 , a Marlborough landline number , 10 miles away , though the outgoing voice sounds like me ?! What’s going on ? we don’t have a landline. Can you please rectify the number & please supply me with an Auto Trader telephone number I can TALK to another human being on.

I have never sold a car before and Autotrader made it so simple and easy to get my car online. I had phone calls ringing me within an hour of putting it online and it was sold within hours!

Private, not TRADE!
Always lists an advert as a trader for me so I then have to contact Autotrader and send them various documents to prove it's a private sale. Also, let face it, price for an advert is extortionate!
