Vehicle Listing


Vehicle Data

Most vehicles have 2 prices in the supplied data, the Drive Away price and the Base price

  • Drive Away Price = The selling price of the car including any transfer fee, government taxes or dealer delivery
  • Base Price = The base price of the car before any additional drive-away fees are added

As per ACC guidelines, it is recommended you always use the Drive Away price. This setting allows you to set the price displayed based on rules to suit your business which can be configured in the Admin Site Settings.

  • You can also set the text to display if there is no price available, the default is TBC (To Be Confirmed)
  • At times, you may not have both prices set for a Vehicle in your Dealer Management System (DMS)
  • The data displayed on your listing will be the same as the data you have entered in your DMS

Drive Away vs Base Price

  • Use Drive Away Price - always use the Drive Away Price. If the drive-away price is not available, then TBC (to be confirmed) will be displayed
  • Use Base Price - always use the Base Price. If the drive-away price is not available, then TBC (to be confirmed) will be displayed
  • Use Drive Away Price if available else use Base Price - Use the Drive Away Price.
    • If the drive-away price is not available, then Base Price will be displayed.
    • If neither price is available, then TBC (to be confirmed) will be displayed
  • Use Base Price if available else use Drive Away Price - Use the Base Price.
    • If the Base price is not available, then the Drive Away Price will be displayed.
    • If neither price is available, then TBC (to be confirmed) will be displayed
  • No Price Text
    • If the rules are set that no price can be displayed (for example, you may set Use Drive Away Price but there is no value entered in your DMS for Drive Away Price)
    • The text to display instead of the price is used
    • The default text is TBC but this can be changed to any value you wish
    • Just be careful of the text length and test to ensure it matches the space available on your listing page

Follow the step-by-step guide to configure your listing price.
