michael smith 1 Posted January 5, 2020 I Think by now we are all sick of autotraders latest miracle idea to show high price indicators on the decent low mileage/low ownership/full service history cars [all they can value is reg number and mileage] not 1 years mot/service professional valet/colour and after care and are glorifying kirbside motors .com who buy crap multi owner no history rubbish and can work on a lot less margin than us decent dealers.Please all email autotrader/ring autotrader/hassle your rep and maybe they will start to listen to the decent traders that have like me supported them for 20+ years and wake up to the decent traders who rely on selling cars for a living and not pocket money.

You think that by begging them to listen to you they’ll listen? They don’t care about you and what you have to say because as much as you moan you still pay them their pound of flesh every month like a good boy and even if you didn’t pay they still wouldn’t care either.

No they won’t and I think you’ve missed the point - they don’t care about your opinion or 100 moaners because they do what’s right for them and whats good for them isn’t always good for us and visa versa. Their YOY profits are up... again... can you say the same? 20% price hike in April I hear... Edited January 5, 2020 by Mojo121 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're clearly not a member of enough forums. All people have done is moan to AT, in fact Chris Penny (brand director dontchaknow) hosted something of a Q&A session on a particular FB forum. To be fair, he took a raft of shit and answered the questions as best he could. The net result of all the moaning? Fuck all. Either play the AT game or advertise elsewhere. It will always be that way. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
