I have found a used audi car that i am interested in whilst searching usedcarshowroom.co.uk (sorry, dont know if im allowed to put links in?) i have enquired about the car but im not sure if the price is a good one or not? i dont have a part exchange so its cash only. How can i find out if its a good deal or not? Also i have seen some of the motoring links here and i dont see this site in them? why not it should be!

    Use autotraders advanced search facility to see how well the car is priced compared to similar nationally.

    I did go on autotrader but it took so long i went and made a cup of tea. I cant say i got on with it particually well. I believe there are better sites our there.
    Anyway, yes i will go on few car search sites and compare prices.

    Autotrader can be slow try viewing it via IE
