User reviews

This is going to be very useful. It doesn't seem to work for motorbikes though. it just doesn't come up on the Autotrader bikes page. Are there plans to include it in the future?

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Most of the time I have to type in the car registration as well.

So far so good. I've used it on a number of cars where I thought would be potential buys, but after using this neat little Chrome extension, it comes up with hidden facts about the cars I've shortlisted.
