Autotrader launches smartphone app

Those on the lookout for classic cars may want to download a new app available on the iPhone and other smartphones which will give them access to hundreds of used motors.

Autotrader has launched a new programme which allows users to search through the company's full list of cars and bikes.

After identifying a nice car, the shopper can call the owner directly from the app or store the number to speak to them later on.

There is also a special garage feature that allows users to store lists of motors they are interested in so they can come back to them at a later date.

In addition, an advanced search setting means shoppers can browse through criteria including mileage, fuel and transmission type.

Autotrader announced earlier today (April 19th) that its website has been subject "to a malicious third-party attack which has prevented normal operational services from being delivered".
