Two independent reads on Australia's used-car market. Carsales.com.au Cars Scraper and Easyauto123 Car Scraper each track a different Australian source, one the country's largest marketplace, one its biggest used-car superstore network.
AUSTRALIA USED CAR DATA   Two independent Australian used-car inventories, cross-checked side by side.
Carsales.com.au ➤ You are here	Easyauto123 Superstore inventory with VIN, price, and dealer detail.

Australia's biggest car marketplace, turned into clean rows. Scrape public Carsales.com.au listings with make, model, price, odometer reading, fuel type, transmission, and seller details, and export to Sheets, Excel, or n8n.

🎚️ Real filters Price, year, odometer, transmission, fuel, body type, state, and new/used, same as the live site.

🪪 Seller context Dealer or private, state, suburb, dealer licence, and phone where published.

🛡️ Built for the tough one Carsales runs one of the toughest bot defenses in this whole category. This Actor is built specifically to get through it.

Carsales.com.au actively blocks scraping tools, which is why so few reliable scrapers exist for it. This Actor is purpose-built to read the real listing data Carsales itself renders for buyers, structured and ready to use.

🔍 What does Carsales.com.au Cars Scraper do?

Carsales Cars Scraper turns public listings from Carsales.com.au, Australia's largest car marketplace, into structured data: make, model, variant, year, price, odometer reading, fuel type, transmission, body type, drivetrain, and seller details, with the full photo gallery for each listing.

Point it at the general search, a make page, or a make-and-model page, and it returns every listing it can read from that page, plus the deeper vehicle and seller details from each car's own listing page. Or skip picking a page altogether and set a price range, model-year range, maximum odometer reading, transmission, fuel type, body type, state, and new/used condition instead, every returned record genuinely respects the bounds you set.

💡 Why use it?

• Dealers and sourcing teams can pull comparable inventory without opening listings one by one.
• Market researchers and analysts can track price, odometer reading, and model year across a slice of the market for pricing work.
• Buyers and resellers can run this on a schedule and catch new listings on a make or model they're watching.

💰 Pricing

This Actor runs on Apify's pay-per-event pricing. You only pay for listings actually returned, and an empty or failed run costs nothing beyond a few seconds of compute. There is no subscription. Because Carsales runs a tougher bot defense than most sites in this category, this Actor uses more compute per listing than a typical car-listing scraper, particularly when fetchDetails is on.

🛠️ Tips and advanced options

• Turn fetchDetails off for a faster, cheaper run when you only need the fields visible on the search page (title, make, model, year, price, and photos).
• fetchDetails is capped at 10 new detail pages per run on purpose, since each one is its own full browser visit. Listings it has already fetched are remembered for 48 hours and reused for free, so running the same start URL again costs nothing extra for cars it already has.
• For a specific make or model, use a Carsales make or make-and-model page directly, such as /cars/toyota/ or /cars/toyota/corolla/, rather than the general search.
• Carsales' own site rules block automated tools from using its filter, sort, and paginated search links (any link with a ? in it). This Actor sticks to plain listing links for that reason, so a single start URL currently returns one page of results (up to about 30 listings) rather than the site's full inventory for very broad searches.
• Keep the residential proxy setting on. Carsales blocks most non-residential traffic outright, and turning this off will make almost every run fail.

❓ FAQ

Why does this cost more compute than other car scrapers in this catalog? Carsales runs a tougher, JavaScript-based bot defense than most sites in this category, so every page needs a real browser session and a residential IP rather than a plain HTTP request. That's reflected in the compute cost, not in the price you're charged per listing.

Why is a field missing from an item? Carsales listings don't publish every detail on every page, and private-seller listings don't have a dealer licence or phone. Missing values are omitted rather than replaced with guesses.

Can I search by price, mileage, or other filters? Yes. Set priceMin, priceMax, yearMin, yearMax, odometerMax, transmission, fuelType, bodyType, state, or condition and every returned record genuinely respects the bounds you set. What this Actor doesn't do is page through Carsales' own sort and multi-page search links, since Carsales' site rules block automated tools from using them. That's why a single start URL returns one page of results rather than a site-wide crawl.

Is this affiliated with Carsales.com.au? No. This is an independent tool that collects publicly available listing information. Use it in line with applicable rules and the source website's terms.
