Outside of PH, Autotrader and a dabble with eBay, where else can you search for used cars on the 'net? I'm sure there must be some other decent sites out there that you guys know about?

Was looking more at 3 to 5 year old cars. Any more?

BCA if you are feeling brave and well informed.

But no, in the UK, there are few sites with enough volume.

Car and classic is pretty decent. Searching isn't always that easy though

tbh I think you are much safer sticking with PH and autotrader. Think of it from the sellers point of view - unless the car is very rare/prestige then why wouldn't they advertise on these two sites, I would be worried looking elsewhere

I do agree with you, I just didn't want to miss out on a site I didn't know about that might have the right car on it.

Thanks for the suggestions and advice anyway guys smile

Or smaller auction houses that offer both in house & on line bidding could be another area to look at.

This one has just been updated today to give an idea of things...
