Websites that fit mobile screens
Our Showcase websites are fully responsive websites that will fit the screen of any device.
Our websites will adapt to fit any device without having to transfer to a mobile site or app. Instead, the full site with all its features, will be viewable on PC, tablet and mobile.
This makes your website completely future-proof and allows you to avoid work duplication and the expense of a mobile site or app.
The amount of people visiting websites from mobile devices is increasing. Avoid frustrating these potential customers by having content and functionality that renders just as well as a PC.

raoul Wedge-Thomas, marketing manager of Carbase.biz
“The main aim for our new website was to ensure that our online visitors experienced the same professional and flexible approach to car buying that customers receive when visiting one of our showrooms.
The site had to be capable of demonstrating the quality of our vehicles and then providing customers with a range of flexible search options that allow them to find the vehicle they desired from the 450 vehicles we hold in stock.”

richard Blenheim, Sales Manager at Wolverhampton Mazda
“We were aware that increasing numbers of our web visitors were looking at our site via mobile devices and that they were not getting a good experience.
Our site was not optimised for mobile, so visitors could not access some of the site and it was very difficult to navigate the pages.
So we decided to call in some specialists - AutoExposure, who built us a new responsive site. Now our web visitors have a good experience on our site - whether they are accessing it from their iPad or smartphones. It’s still early days but we have seen an uplift in traffic from mobile devices and we are delighted with the results.”

Go the extra mile
By partnering with Codeweavers, we have made it possible for your customers to base searches of your stock on financial payments.
Adding this functionality to your website allows you to offer a one-stop shop for any would-be car buyer. It gives your customers the extra ability to search based on their monthly budget.
We can also integrate real-time calculations within your vehicle stock, which makes cars as affordable as possible from the customer’s perspective. This sits beside insurance quotes that are integrated directly into your stock pages, which enhances the customer experience.
Additional features
My GarageAllow your customers to browse and compare your stock. Customers can pick the vehicles they like from their search results, and add them to the My Garage section. Here they can compare vehicle details and specifications. Information from CAP will give them further details about the vehicle. They can even compare different makes and models of car to help them decide.
Car CompareCustomers can quickly and easily select stock from search results and create a shortlist of vehicles to compare. This creates a clear table of images and information, such as the number of doors and body style, or colour and mileage. The clear call to action conveniently enables customers to view each car.

Show off your stock
PhotographyOur photography service is professional and cost effective. It can be used with the Autoedit upload tool if required, as well as for your own or one supplied by a manufacturer.
Advanced Vehicle Imaging (AVI)AVI allows you to showcase your stock with images of the very best quality. We superimpose an attractive background for each vehicle – without moving it from the forecourt. We can also add your dealership name and branding to the background and even remove price boards and number plates.
Choose from a range of backgrounds and decide if you would like to treat all images of your vehicles, or just one. It is a quick and easy way to make your stock stand out and look professional in results pages.
Managing your stock feed
AutoEdit is a sophisticated and industry-recognised vehicle stock-management system that is used by thousands of car dealers. We offer it free with every site we create.
AutoEdit is a quick and easy way to get all your vehicles online – complete with vehicle specifications, descriptions and photos. You can add and remove stock or edit vehicle details, images and prices at the touch of a button.
AutoEdit can also pull vehicle records through to your website, by using DVLA and CAP data.
Vehicles can be uploaded via data feeds from aggregators or dealer groups and can even be uploaded and managed for other classified websites by using a stock-exporter functionality with publishing options. The tool also gives you the ability to print point-of-sale material.
