Why not let the NAs have a go too?

Any hooooo

http://www.fow.co.uk/2006/index.asp - decent stock good price car supermarket
http://www.alanday.co.uk/default.aspx - my local Honda dealer, always had a good experience with them
http://www.cargiant.co.uk/ - Cheap cars and lots of
http://www.autoplanet.co.uk/ - local supermarket, cheap but that is about it really
http://www.broker4cars.co.uk - bargains to be had for the right car

Generally the supermarkets all use similar approach to searching - fow used to let you download the stock list as an excel sheet have not used it for a while and I noticed that the facility was missing from the page I used to use.

Thanks but I was looking for something more general like AutoTrader for example. I'm not looking to buy.

Sorry, NA = North Americans. ...

OK lets try :

The biggest : http://www.exchangeandmart.co.uk/iad/sitemap Exchange and Mart
The next biggest : http://www.autotrader.co.uk/ Autotrader
the ubiquitous EBAY : http://motors.ebay.co.uk/?_trksid=p3907.m21

That is all the general one tha I know about - best of that lot is probably still FoW.

It seems the Americans get completely different versions of cars, usually uglified and without all the nice features the Euro cars get.

I only want these websites because I enjoy searching the used car listings when bored, like I'm sure so many of you out there would too. Its a great past time of mine, lol.

//edit - Thanks for the links btw

And because I can, here's a bizarre advert for Exchange and Mart from the 80s.
