How often do you browse auto trader?

When I browse the Finnish version of Autotrader (Nettiauto) to see what I can get with "fantasy" money I enjoy it, but when I'm actually looking for a new car I legitimately hate it because I then have to spend real money:(
 
Daily, as I am hoping to buy a new car by August at the latest. I currently have four alerts setup, they aren't getting triggered very often though. :-(
 
Most days recently, I try not to though just get the inclination it’s an unhealthy habit lol

Folks me know if you come across a fast and reliable estate :D
 
I try not to, as it can result in me then going on forums asking questions about cars that I will never actually buy.
 
Used to enjoy just flicking through the pages out of interest as I never knew what interesting car would turn up. The vast number of Cazoo and other online retailers has really spoilt the experience now. I'm not going to spend a fortune on a car without seeing it first!
 
On and off, normally when I'm due an upgrade I start looking about a year in advance. Started looking recently even though I'm keeping my car for another few years.

It's nice to try to keep up with price trends, see how a similar age model does on the market.

Probably 30 mins a day just for fun. Check prices of things that interest me and always have a look for weird stuff.

Every few months to see if it's worth getting an ev, it never is.

I'm confused, is Autotrader going to change your usage profile, the number of charging points, or your personal circumstance?

Or do you mean "to see if I can afford a decent EV yet"?
 
Never, only time I actually look at it is when someone posts a link, I do occasionally look on PistonHeads but more for the articles than the sales tab
 
I advertised a 2010 Freelander 2 on Autotrader I had one call in 7 days. I advertised it at a set price on eBay and had 6 people after it within 5 days and actually sold it.

We’ve been looking on Autotrader to buy our next car but it’s nearly always Carshop, Carzoo or Carzam. My last experience with The Car Shop has put me right off them
 
Not autotrader per se but the equivalent out here! Starting a new role in a few months and gives me access to an interest free car loan. There is soo much choice here for around 30k I am actually spoilt :( Talk about 1st world problems!

Might post a thread here to help me choose.

Can get all sorts of cars and despite wanting a muscle car the choice is genuinely overwhelming!
