  • Autotrader volume of ads 28 Jan 2009 (Forum)
    I have noticed that the number of cars for sale on Autotrader has decreased in the last 4 months from around the 390,000 mark to around 320,000. Is this due to less people buying new ones and hanging on to their old cars, so less p/x's or private sales to me made?
