What it does
Every trade-in priced with real numbers
Wholesale valuations
Live market-referenced pricing at the desk
AutoPlay connects to Motorweb and market data sources so your team sees wholesale quotes alongside real market-referenced price points on the same screen. Offers are grounded in actual numbers, not gut feel, and every quote is recorded against the appraisal.
- Multiple wholesale buyer quotes against the same vehicle record
- Market-referenced valuation data alongside wholesale figures
- Vehicle history and PPSR checks via Motorweb, pulled by plate or VIN
Trade-in appraisals
Accurate part-exchange offers, full condition capture
Walk around the vehicle and log condition notes, photos, damage markers, and itemised reconditioning costs in a consistent, structured format. The condition record travels with the appraisal from the yard through to DMS export, so nothing gets lost between stages.
- Structured condition capture: notes, photos, and damage markers
- Itemised reconditioning costs recorded against the vehicle
- Can be started on the phone and syncs to the desktop, no re-entry
Appraisal reporting
Offer acceptance rates and trade-in margin by month
Reports show which consultants are pricing trades consistently, where offers are being declined, and how wholesale quotes compare to final accepted values. Part of AutoPlay's wider set of 15+ reports, so trade performance sits alongside the rest of your pipeline reporting.
- Offer acceptance rates across the dealership and by consultant
- Trade margin tracked month by month
- Consultant pricing consistency against market-referenced data
How it works
From walk-around to written offer
Initiate the appraisal
Enter the plate or VIN and AutoPlay retrieves vehicle history via Motorweb. The consultant logs mileage, condition notes, photos, and any damage against the vehicle record, then adds itemised reconditioning costs.
Wholesale quotes and valuation
Wholesale buyer quotes are entered against the same appraisal and shown alongside market-referenced price data. The consultant sees every figure on one screen before proposing an offer.
Offer made and recorded
The offer is presented to the customer. The outcome, whether accepted, declined, or countered, is recorded against the appraisal. The completed record is available for DMS export and feeds into offer acceptance and trade margin reporting.

FAQ
Before you book a demo
The questions dealers ask us most. Need more detail? Visit support or talk to our team.
Does AutoPlay Appraisal connect to Motorweb and my DMS?
Yes. AutoPlay Appraisal connects directly to Motorweb to pull vehicle history and PPSR checks into the appraisal record. Confirmed DMS integrations include CDK, Titan, Magix, DealerPRO, Auto IT, and Comsol. Appraisal records can also be exported to Salesforce (used by Mazda and Volvo OEM CRM workflows) and to Revolution and iAppraise for dealers who use those valuation tools.
Can I capture wholesale buyer quotes against the same vehicle?
Yes. Multiple wholesale buyer quotes can be entered against a single appraisal record. Your team sees all quotes side by side alongside the market-referenced valuation data, so the offer is grounded in real numbers rather than a single buyer's figure.
What does the condition capture cover?
Each trade-in gets a structured condition record: notes, photos, damage markers, and itemised reconditioning costs, captured against the vehicle's plate or VIN. The record travels with the appraisal through to DMS export, so nothing is lost between the yard and the desk.
What reporting does Appraisal provide?
Appraisal reporting covers offer acceptance rates and trade margin by month, part of AutoPlay's wider set of 15+ reports. Reports show where offers are being declined, how wholesale quotes compare to final accepted values, and which consultants are pricing trades in line with market data.
Is Appraisal available on mobile?
Yes. An appraisal can be started on the phone in the yard, capturing condition notes, photos, and wholesale quotes, then syncs through to the desktop for the finished offer and DMS export.
How is Appraisal priced?
Appraisal is available as part of the AutoPlay platform. Pricing is shaped around the size and setup of your dealership. The best next step is a short demo so we can scope your appraisal volume and DMS requirements, then give you a plan that fits.
