Our verdict on Motavo

Motavo is a UK marketplace for people researching used cars and contacting sellers, rather than buying a vehicle on the site. Shoppers can filter listings by make, fuel, transmission, body type, price, year and mileage. Motavo Match ranks cars into a shortlist based on buyer preferences, and a comparison view places up to four cars side by side. Those tools make Motavo most relevant to shoppers who want help narrowing options and estimating ownership costs before speaking with a seller.

Cost-estimation features give the marketplace a research focus beyond browsing adverts. Motavo provides guide pricing and a Motavo score, plus a finance calculator where shoppers can adjust the deposit, term and APR to estimate monthly payments. It also offers running-cost estimates. These are useful inputs for comparing shortlisted cars, but the site does not complete purchases: enquiries go directly to sellers. Buyers who want an online checkout or a transaction handled within one service should look elsewhere.

Motavo is free for shoppers and is available on the web. Sellers can create and manage vehicle adverts through a dashboard and receive enquiries; the site advertises unlimited free seller listings during its launch period through 31 December 2026. Listings include external adverts, so availability and full advert details come from the original seller. That makes direct seller follow-up important, and the web-only format will not suit shoppers looking for a dedicated mobile app. Choose Motavo for guided comparisons and cost estimates; consider another option if completing a purchase online or a mobile app is essential.
