🚗 AutoTrader Australia Car-Dealer Leads Scraper — Phone, Website, ABN & Licence

Turn AutoTrader.com.au into a clean list of car dealers — dealer name, phone, website, ABN, dealer licence #, full address, review rating, the franchise brand they hold, live inventory, the brands they sell and their price range. One row per dealer (deduped by dealer id), not one row per car. Filter by make, state, model and condition. No login, no API key.

🕒 One row per dealer · 🇦🇺 Every AU state & territory · 📞 Phone + 🌐 website + 🪪 licence # + ABN + full address · ⭐ Review rating · 🚫 No login or API key · 🔌 Straight from AutoTrader's own platform data

Most AutoTrader scrapers hand you a wall of individual car listings and leave you to work out who's actually selling them. This one flips it around and gives you the dealer. It walks the listings, collapses them to unique dealers, then pulls each dealer's own profile to build a real B2B lead: the phone, the website, the ABN, the state dealer licence #, the review rating, the franchise brand they hold, their full street address, how many cars they have live, and the brands + price band they play in. The result is a ready-to-use dealer prospect list for automotive SaaS, DMS/CRM, dealer-marketing, financing, warranty & F&I, insurance, parts and wholesale.

What it does

• 🏢 One clean row per dealer — deduped by AutoTrader dealer id, so 40 cars from one dealer become a single lead, not 40 near-duplicates.
• 📞 The B2B fields others skip — phone, website, abn, the state licenseNumber (dealer licence), reviewRating, and the full street / suburb / state / postcode address, pulled from the dealer's own profile.
• 🏷️ A buying signal on every dealer — franchiseBrand (the new-car franchise they hold, if any), adPackage / subscriptionTier (how much they spend advertising on AutoTrader — a live budget signal), and inventoryCount + brands[] + priceMin / priceMax so you can segment by size, brand mix and price tier.
• 🚘 Sample inventory — a sampleListings[] snapshot (make / model / price / URL) for each dealer.
• 🇦🇺 Every state & territory — NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, SA, TAS, ACT, NT.
• 🔎 Filter by make, model, state & condition — scrape every dealer, or just the ones listing Toyota HiLux, new Ford in QLD, etc.
• 🛡️ Built for the anti-bot — reads AutoTrader's own JSON platform API over Apify Australian residential proxies with request pacing and automatic IP rotation, so pages come back populated, not challenged.

📊 Output — dealer + contact + inventory in one flat record

Every dealer comes back as a flat JSON record. The fields that matter:

Field	Type	Example
🏢 companyName	text	Rockdale Mazda
📞 phone	text	0279088222
🌐 website	link	https://www.rockdalemazda.com.au/
🪪 licenseNumber	text	MD082640
🧾 abn	text	71644881676
⭐ reviewRating	number	4.2
🏷️ franchiseBrand	text	Mazda
📈 adPackage / subscriptionTier	text	PPV Platinum · PREMIUM
📍 street / suburb / state / postcode	text	257 Princes Highway · Arncliffe · NSW · 2205
🗺️ region / lga	text	Sydney · Bayside
📦 inventoryCount	number	12
🚘 brands	array	["Mazda", "Toyota"]
💲 priceMin / priceMax	number	18990 / 62950
🔗 dealerUrl	link	https://www.autotrader.com.au/car/…

Plus dealerId, dealerType, sampleListings[] (make / model / price / url), source, and scrapedAt.

💡 website, abn, licenseNumber, reviewRating and franchiseBrand come from the dealer's AutoTrader profile. Franchise / premium dealers publish all of them; smaller used-car lots publish fewer, and those rows still carry the name, phone, suburb, state and licence #. The website is your handoff to email enrichment (site → verified email/phone).

❓ FAQ

What contact details do I actually get? Per dealer: company name, the phone shown on AutoTrader, the website, ABN, state dealer licence #, review rating, franchise brand, ad tier, and the full address (street, suburb, state, postcode, region, LGA).

Do I get an email? AutoTrader routes buyer enquiries through a lead form and does not publish a plain dealer email, so this Actor does not promise one. It does give you the dealer's website, which you can pass to an email/phone enrichment step to reach a verified inbox.

Why one row per dealer instead of per car? Because you're prospecting dealers, not cars. The Actor dedupes by AutoTrader dealer id and aggregates each dealer's inventory (count, brands, price range, sample listings) onto a single lead.

Why do some rows have a null website or ABN? Smaller used-car lots don't publish every field. Those rows still carry the name, phone, suburb, state and licence #. Turn enrichDealerProfile off to skip the profile step entirely for a faster listing-only pull.

How is inventoryCount calculated? It's the number of that dealer's cars seen during this run (within your make / state / condition filter). Scrape with no make filter for a fuller count.

Do I need a login or API key? No. It reads AutoTrader Australia's public dealer and listing data — no account, no key.

Why residential proxies? AutoTrader Australia sits behind a velocity-based WAF. The Actor defaults to Apify Australian residential with request pacing and IP rotation so pages return populated data.

Can I export to Excel or Google Sheets? Yes — the dataset exports to JSON, CSV, Excel, or Google Sheets, or via API.

How much does it cost? Pay-per-result — you only pay for the dealers returned. It's free to try.
