Contact me for a quote if you want to buy custom selection of columns, makes, years, or body type. Custom subsets won’t let you download updates unless you ask me to send you updates, but are good for one-time use, for example to decide what used car to buy, or academic project.

Description

I created this UK car database in January 2019 after multiple people requested me to do this job. For long time I avoided spending additional effort to make additional databases for Europe because I already had the AutoKatalog-based Car Models & Engines Database for whole Europe that has been purchased by many people in UK without problems, and the more detailed German Car Database was not selling well.

But… a small number of people wanted a more detailed database than European one (which have 1 row per body / engine / drivetrain combination, ignoring trims / equipment versions). Some did purchased German one but the ones from UK wanted an UK-specific one. I made a scraper for the most famous UK car website and it was easier than originally expected, easier than German and American websites I also extracted data for their databases. I feel sorry for not creating this UK car database earlier!
