Hey All,

So, I'm looking for a Merc on a 66-plate onwards and I have a spec that's quite difficult to get. I therefore want to be able to find all the best sites so I can increase my chances of finding the car I want. What sites should I add to below, including the franchises and general high end sellers:

Autotrader
Motors
Piston Heads
Sytner
Lookers
Stratstone
Jardine
Sinclair
LSH Auto
Mercedes UK Used Approved

Cheers

Arnold Clark if you are willing to travel. Not the greatest dealer but they have a large stock. I assume most places will list on AT but always good to give your wishlist to them and get first look at cars before being advertised.

Thanks, but there's nothing showing there right now. If only I could search a database that showed how many cars in the spec I want exist in the UK! I asked MB head office about this and they gave me some flanel about data protection...

LOL data protection, what personal information do they think is involved?

Had similar looking for a F56 cooper s with specific options.
Put general car details with rare option into google will come up with a site called news now which lists many sources that aren't on sites similar to those you've listed. Can reduce news now list by specify years, price etc narrow search down
Problem is that actual descriptions put in by sellers aren't consistent for same option e,g Variable damper control can be listed as this or VDC, EDC etc found best option in this instance was to use damper in search criteria.

Could also try trovit

Neither sites easy to use but does give cars that others have missed
