Why we have a mileage indicator
We introduced the mileage indicator as a response to customer feedback. The average mileage marker is displayed on all adverts available on our platform, and this cannot be removed. The mileage displayed does not discourage customers from your advert. It gives useful information in their buying decision.
How it works
To work out the average mileage, we compare your vehicle's mileage against other vehicles advertised on Auto Trader. This means that we will only make a comparison based on vehicles of the same make, model and fuel type on our website. We do not compare against vehicles on other platforms or databases. New adverts are always added to the website. These will added to the calculation so you may see the number on your advert change.
