Finding Auto trader expired ads

Post by 1doohan » Wed Feb 01, 2023 3:48 pm

Is it possible to find an expired ad on auto trader? I'm looking for an ad end of November to see what was advertised about the car I purchased from Sytner. Experiencing bit of a headache regarding warranty... ad said 12 months...... they're saying 6 and your leaky roof isn't covered after finding it after less than 200 miles of use.

I'd contact them directly. Iirc I did this a few years back after buying a bike. I always screenshot any ads now on potential purchases and save them.

Contact autotrader directly and they should be able to send you a copy of the advert.

True... Sussed that out as soon as I replied... I initially thought you meant contact Sytner.
Thanks for your trustworthy reply.
