Autotrack Automotive Scraper: Extract Vehicle Listings Effortlessly

---

What Is Autotrack.nl?

Autotrack.nl is the Netherlands' leading online automotive marketplace, featuring thousands of vehicle listings from private sellers and dealerships. The platform includes detailed vehicle specifications, pricing, photos, VR images, and availability status. Manually extracting this data from search results is inefficient — the Autotrack Automotive Scraper automates bulk data collection, transforming vehicle listings into clean, structured datasets ready for analysis or integration.

Overview

The Autotrack Automotive Scraper extracts comprehensive vehicle information from Autotrack.nl search result pages, capturing essential listing details in a structured format. It is designed for:

• Dealership networks aggregating inventory across multiple locations
• Price comparison platforms building automotive datasets
• Market analysts tracking vehicle pricing and availability trends
• Automotive researchers studying vehicle availability and seller behavior
• Inventory management systems syncing external listings

Key strengths include efficient batch extraction, VR image tracking, flexible pagination support, and robust error handling via ignore_url_failures.

Input Format

The scraper accepts a JSON configuration object with three main parameters:

{
  "urls": [
    "https://www.autotrack.nl/aanbod?pageNumber=2&pageSize=30&sortField=relevance&sortOrder=asc"
  ],
  "ignore_url_failures": true,
  "max_items_per_url": 200
}

Parameter Details

Parameter	Type	Description	Example
urls	Array	List of Autotrack search result page URLs to scrape	["https://www.autotrack.nl/aanbod?pageNumber=2..."]
ignore_url_failures	Boolean	If true, scraper continues running even if some URLs fail	true / false
max_items_per_url	Integer	Maximum number of vehicle listings to extract per URL	200, 50, 1000

URL Structure & Pagination

Autotrack.nl search URLs support the following query parameters:

• pageNumber — Current page number (e.g., pageNumber=2 for page 2)
• pageSize — Number of results per page (e.g., pageSize=30)
• sortField — Sort order field (e.g., relevance, price, date)
• sortOrder — Sort direction: asc (ascending) or desc (descending)

Tip: To scrape multiple pages, add separate URLs with incrementing pageNumber values (e.g., page 1, 2, 3…) to the urls array.

How to Use

1. Gather Autotrack URLs — Visit Autotrack.nl and apply filters (brand, price range, location, mileage). Copy the resulting search URL.
2. Prepare your configuration — Paste the search URL(s) into the urls array. For multiple pages, add separate URLs with different pageNumber values.
3. Set extraction limits — Define max_items_per_url (e.g., 200 for bulk exports, 50 for testing).
4. Enable error tolerance — Set ignore_url_failures: true to skip temporarily unavailable URLs without halting the run.
5. Execute the scraper — Start the actor and monitor progress in the run log.
6. Export results — Download extracted data as JSON, CSV, or Excel for analysis or system integration.

Best practices:

• Use realistic pageSize values; Autotrack typically defaults to 15–30 items per page
• Test with a single URL and lower max_items_per_url before running large batches
• Export data regularly during long runs to avoid timeout issues
