Why don't some vehicles state mileage?

There are practical and logistical reasons as to why some of our advertisers are unable to supply information such as mileage. Firstly, these advertisers tend to be major dealerships that cross-feed details on their stock directly to our database. As this stock may comprise many thousand vehicles spread throughout SA, it may be logistically difficult to retrieve all information without causing an extended delay in sending the stock to the live site.

In the interest of supplying our users with as much choice as possible, we therefore believe it's more important to get this stock to market rather than miss the opportunity for it not to be included on the site because the mileage is not available. In the meantime, we continue to advise our Trade partners and dealerships to include details on mileage whenever possible.

We know from user feedback that most potential buyers like to have as much information as possible about a vehicle before they make a purchase enquiry. Our advice to Private advertisers wishing to boost the volume and quality purchase enquiries is to always include mileage details whenever they submit an advertisement.
