    The old site didn't allow you to search multiple makes and models or counties in one go (without manually manipulating the URL), so it was far from perfect.

    yea its crap... had a car on it a while ago and i said id leave my email on it too... never again... all the response got back was from scammers. Have another car on it at the mo at the cheapest price on there so hopefully a bit more luck this time. Never heard of www.driving.ie ... is it any good??

    I would not pay much attention to carzone prices as a judge of the true value of your car. Carzone is full of dreamers and doesn't list the actually selling price of cars just optimystic asking prices.

    Heres another site thats slowly eating into Carzones customer base....

    http://www.carsireland.ie/


    Carzone used to be the default choice for selling a car but then A) They screwed up the site and B) they became to greedy and charged too much ;)

    I always thought they were the same but the carzone layout is a disaster.
