Default if you plan to use autotrader toi sell your car

Got my car for sale in autotrader for a couple of weeks and all i have had so far is companies who can sell my car on my behalf, all have been asked by me if they are in a multi level building, and if so get to the top floor and jump off as it is the quickest way to get a dead call.

so i thought i woudl display the numbers so far so if you like me hate junk calls you can log them on your mobile turn on the abuse as soon as they call


01992 784998

01592 777800

0208 4474 048

will update as and when i get new calls and if anybody else is also selling via auto trtader and has numbers please post. well worth having i feel as i get so many junk calls due to work already.

I got pestered by the 01992 number, but as the car had already sold on here before the ad went in (), I was able to answer her opening question "is the car still for sale?" with an abrupt, "No ... so feck off."

A right PITA these guys.

I always ask them, if they're so confident in selling my car why they won't take a commission based payment after they've sold it? That normally shuts them up.

Good idea S2uk

Tried that, but they wouldn't give up -

'That's not how we work sir'
"well i'm not interested then"
'blah blah blah blah blah'
"look, not interested, why should I give you money for nothing?"
'blah blah blah blah blah'
"F*** off"

I put "N/C" on the bottom of my ad when I was selling my last car and didn't get any calls from canvassers at all.
