The autotrader web site now defaults to within 40 miles of your postcode, if you change it to national you will get a lot more, also many people can't spell, so you usually get a few with Impezza as the model.

I emailed Autotrader regarding not being able to find cars on autotrader, including one my friend had advertised. The answer was to include a make and model but no spec details, ie Search for Subaru Impreza and not Subaru Impreza Turbo. They have changed the way the 'variant' field searches, which is a real pain and means you have to trawl past 1.6GL's to find STi's...

There are over 200 scooby's for sale nationally on Autotrader and most of the impreza's are turbos!
