Motors.co.uk Scraper — UK Used Car Listings & Prices

What does Motors.co.uk Scraper do?

Know which used cars match your price, mileage, and spec on Motors.co.uk, the UK's #2 car classifieds site, without paging through listings by hand. No login or cookies required.

Since 30 September 2026 every motors.co.uk address redirects to Cazoo, which carries the same dealer stock under the same listing IDs. This actor reads Cazoo's search results, and your saved inputs keep working unchanged. Listing URLs now point to cazoo.co.uk.

Search by make, model, or free text, filter by price, mileage, and registration year, and get structured JSON, CSV, or Excel output in minutes via the Apify platform, with scheduling, integrations, and proxy rotation built in.

How much does it cost to scrape Motors.co.uk?

Motors.co.uk Scraper loads Cazoo's search pages in a headless browser through UK residential proxies, 24 listings per page. It charges $0.005 per run (start fee, based on its 1 GB memory allocation) plus $0.002 per result. 100 results costs about $0.21; 1,000 about $2.01; 5,000 (maximum per run) about $10.01. A run's usage cost only settles after it reports SUCCEEDED.

Tips and advanced options

• Use make/model for precision — Free text search is fine for a specific model name, but make + model gives the most reliable filtering.
• National by default — Leave distanceMiles at 1000 to search the whole UK; only set a smaller radius if you specifically want listings near one postcode.
• Combine filters — Narrow results with price, mileage, and year filters for focused datasets.
• Schedule runs — Set up daily or weekly scraping to track price changes over time.

FAQ and support

Is it legal to scrape Motors.co.uk? Motors.co.uk Scraper accesses only publicly available search data that any visitor can see, the same search pages any visitor sees. It does not require login, bypass authentication, or access private data, and it does not touch any URL disallowed in the site's robots.txt. Always review and comply with the target website's Terms of Service before use.

What are the limitations? Cazoo returns 24 listings per search page and the actor pages through them automatically. A make or model Cazoo does not list returns no rows and a status message naming it, and the run still succeeds. The postcode only applies when distanceMiles is below 1000. imageUrls holds up to 20 photos per listing.
