Motors.co.uk Data Scraping

The same dealer's car can appear on Cazoo, Motors and partner sites at once. Counted three times, it would look like three cars.

Motors.co.uk data scraping covers dealer used-car listings from the Motors network. Motors owns the Cazoo brand, now its lead marketplace, and places dealer adverts on partner sites as well. So one vehicle can appear on several sites, and listings are de-duplicated across the network before anything is counted, with every site it appeared on kept. Private sellers' personal details are never collected, number plates are not collected from private listings, and a listing that disappears is not recorded as a sale.

Syndication is good for dealers and bad for naive stock counts. De-duplication is the first job.

Motors.co.uk at a glance

How we handle Motors.co.uk specifically

Platform-specific handling, not a generic retail template pointed at a different domain.

Network: Motors.co.uk — private equity-backed
Lead brand: Cazoo marketplace, since Apr 2025
Syndication: Dealer ads on partner sites too
So: De-duplicated across the network
Kept: Every site a vehicle appeared on
Listers: Dealers
Comparison: Within mileage and age bands
Refresh: Daily

Platform specifics

One car, several adverts

These are the reasons a Motors.co.uk dataset needs its own handling rather than a shared retail schema.

De-duplication across the network

Motors distributes dealer stock across its own brands and partner sites. The same vehicle, same dealer and same price can therefore appear several times.

vehicle_key built from dealer, make, model, derivative, year, mileage and price — never from a plate or VIN.
appearances lists each site and listing ID the vehicle appeared on.
match_confidence recorded; uncertain matches are kept apart, not merged.
Stock counts are made on vehicles, with site counts beside them.

Cazoo, and what we do not do

Cazoo

Motors relaunched Cazoo as a dealer marketplace in April 2025, after Cazoo's own retail business failed in 2024. The history is on our Cazoo page.

Compared properly

Within mileage and age bands, as on our mobile.de page.

What we do not do

Count the same car several times, merge uncertain matches, use plates or VINs as keys, or record disappearance as a sale.

Scope

What we collect on Motors.co.uk, and what we do not

The right column matters more than the left. Anyone can list fields; the limits are what tell you whether the dataset will hold up.

✅ What we collect

vehicle_key without plate or VIN
appearances across every site
match_confidence on every merge
Uncertain matches kept apart
Stock counts on vehicles, site counts beside
Dealer identity where displayed
Mileage, age and derived bands
Days on market from first observation
Price revisions dated

❌ What we do not, and why

The same car counted several times
Uncertain matches merged
Plates or VINs used as keys
Disappeared listings recorded as sales
Personal data of any kind

How we engage

Three ways to engage us

Same collection pipeline and QA underneath. The difference is who holds the schedule and how the data reaches you.

Managed service (most common)

We own the collection, the QA and the delivery. You receive clean data on a schedule and never touch a scraper.

Dedicated engineer assigned to your account
Site changes fixed by us, not reported to you
Scheduled delivery to your warehouse or S3
Named contact on Slack or email

Best fit: Teams who need the data, not the infrastructure.

API access

The same collection pipeline exposed as an authenticated REST endpoint your systems query directly.

On-demand and scheduled endpoints
Rate limits agreed to your load profile
Sandbox keys for integration testing
Versioned schema with deprecation notice

Best fit: Product and engineering teams building on live data.

One-time or project extraction

A defined pull for a specific question — market sizing, diligence, a pitch, a one-off audit.

Fixed scope agreed in writing upfront
Single delivery with full QA report
Methodology documented for your records
Converts to managed if you want continuity

Best fit: Research, strategy and diligence work with a deadline.

Pricing

Every engagement is quoted individually, because the honest answer depends on your scope: how many sources, how many records, how often, and how the data reaches you. We scope it with you, run a free pilot on your own sources, and then quote a fixed monthly figure — no per-request metering and no overage billing when volumes move. Request a quote and you will have a number after one call.

Motors.co.uk is usually collected alongside its competitors

Almost nobody buys a single platform in isolation. Motors.co.uk data becomes useful when it sits next to the competitor set on one schema, refreshed on one schedule, so a price index or availability comparison is genuinely like-for-like.

That is what automotive data covers, and a Motors.co.uk-only engagement can be expanded into it without rebuilding. If you already know you need several platforms, start there instead — it is the same pipeline and usually the better scoping conversation.

FAQ

Motors.co.uk data scraping: frequently asked questions

Platform-specific questions, including what cannot be collected here.

Because Motors places the same dealer ad on several sites. Counting adverts would count cars more than once.

From dealer, vehicle attributes, mileage and price, with a confidence score. Uncertain matches stay apart.

Yes. Motors bought the Cazoo brand in 2024 and relaunched it as its lead marketplace in April 2025.

Motors is a dealer network.

No. A disappeared listing is not a sale.

It depends on regions and frequency.
