❓ What is Gumtree Scraper?

Gumtree is the United Kingdom's leading free classifieds site. This scraper reads each result card by its stable data-q / data-testid hooks rather than fragile CSS classes, so the title, numeric GBP price, location, description and image come out clean on every category. On cars-vans-motorbikes and the other motors categories it additionally flattens the vehicle chips — year, mileage, fuel type, engine size — and the Trade-vs-Private seller badge, turning a listings page into a used-car dataset.

⭐ Why use this scraper?

• ✅ Any category — cars & vans, property, jobs, electronics, home & garden
• ✅ Vehicle specs (year, mileage, fuel, engine) on the motors categories
• ✅ Trade vs Private seller flag for lead qualification
• ✅ Numeric GBP price plus the original price label
• ✅ Deep pagination — thousands of ads, not page one only
• ✅ Keyless & browserless — low cost per row
