## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

Car & Classic Scraper collects public vehicle listings from Car & Classic, one of Europe's largest classic and collector car marketplaces. Its edge is **ended-auction history**: every completed auction comes back with the hammer price, how many bids it drew, the reserve status, and an `isSold` flag, which is the evidence you need to value a car rather than guess at it. You can also pull live and upcoming listings, or paste specific listing links straight from your browser, and get price, full specification, location, seller detail, and photo galleries as clean structured data.

### 🔍 What does Car & Classic Scraper do?

It turns Car & Classic listings into a spreadsheet or a data feed. Point it at a search, or at individual cars, and it returns one clean row per vehicle.

It covers three things competing tools leave out:

- **Ended-auction history.** Filter to ended listings and each completed auction carries the final hammer price, how many bids it drew, whether the reserve was met, and an `isSold` flag. This is the comparable-sales evidence that asking prices cannot give you.
- **Real photo galleries.** You get the actual image links, so you can review condition or pull images into your own listing, valuation pack, or CRM.
- **The full listing description.** Service history, restoration notes, ownership history, and declared faults, in the seller's own words.

Run it once for a snapshot, or put it on a schedule to track a model's market week by week.

### 💡 Why use it?

**"I need to price a car for my forecourt this week."**
You are pricing a 1973 911 and the live listings all sit at hopeful money. Pull the completed auctions, filter to that model in your spreadsheet, and you can see what buyers actually paid, with bid counts showing how much real competition there was.

**"I track four models and I don't want to miss a lot."**
Filter to live and upcoming auctions and you get end times and current bid counts on every car. Schedule it daily and you know which lots are running hot before they close, not after.

**"My valuation has to survive a challenge."**
You write agreed-value policies or investment notes. Sold prices, mileage, condition text, and photographs land in one row per car, so your number comes with its evidence attached rather than a screenshot and a memory.

### 💰 Pricing

This Actor runs on pay per result. You are charged for the vehicle records you actually receive, plus a small fee each time a browsing session is opened to reach the site. A run that returns nothing costs you almost nothing, and there is no subscription or monthly minimum.

Keep costs down by setting **Max items** to what you need, and leaving **Fetch full detail per listing** off unless you want the description and seller contact detail.

### 🎯 Tips

- **Build a price index.** Pull ended auctions on a schedule, keep the rows where `isSold` is true, and you have a running record of what cars fetch over time. Filter by make and year in your own sheet.
- **Keep the auctions, drop the adverts.** Ended results also include adverts that closed without an auction. Filter on `isAuction` to keep only completed auctions.
- **Check the currency and the mileage unit.** Car & Classic is pan-European, so GBP and EUR both appear, and mileage arrives in miles or kilometres. Both are labelled on every row.
- **Search first, enrich second.** Run a broad search to find the cars you care about, then re-run in listing mode with detail on for just those, rather than paying for detail on everything.
- **Watch reserve status, not just price.** A high bid on a lot where the reserve was never met tells you the market disagreed with the seller. The `isSold` field separates cars that actually changed hands from lots that ended unsold.

### ❓ FAQ

**Can I get the price a car actually sold for?**
Yes. Set **Auction state** to **Ended**, and every auction that sold carries its final hammer price, bid count, and reserve status. The ended set also contains adverts that closed without an auction, flagged by `isSold` and `isAuction` (both false), so you can keep them or filter them out.

**Can I filter by make, model, price, or year?**
Not in the input form. Car & Classic asks automated tools not to use those search filters, so this Actor leaves them out. Every row carries make, year, and price, so you can filter the export in a spreadsheet or your own tool.

**How many cars can one search return?**
Car & Classic serves up to 150 result pages per search, which is about 9,000 cars, even though its catalogue is larger. To reach more, run separate searches split by auction state, vehicle type, gearbox, steering side, or seller type.

**Do I need a Car & Classic account or login?**
No. It only reads pages that are public to any visitor.

**Does it cover motorcycles and commercial vehicles?**
Yes. Set **Vehicle type** to motorcycles or commercial vehicles. Cars are the default.

**Why is the model or variant field sometimes empty?**
Many sellers only fill in a make and a free-text title. Where the site has no model, this Actor leaves the field out rather than guessing, so your data stays trustworthy.

**Can I run it on a schedule?**
Yes. Use Apify's scheduler to run it daily, weekly, or monthly, and connect the output to Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, or your own tools.

### ⚖️ Disclaimers

This Actor collects only publicly available listing information. It does not access private data, accounts, or anything behind a login. You are responsible for using the data in line with Car & Classic's terms and applicable law, including data protection rules where seller contact details are involved.

Found a problem or want a field added? Open an issue on the **Issues** tab and it will be looked at.

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {
    "mode": "search",
    "listingUrls": ["https://www.carandclassic.com/auctions/2002-mercedes-benz-clk-320-avantgarde-a208-nYWkK8"],
    "auctionState": [],
    "mileageMax": 0,
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": True,
        "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
    },
    "maxItems": 25,
}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("getascraper/carandclassic-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "mode": "search",
  "listingUrls": [
    "https://www.carandclassic.com/auctions/2002-mercedes-benz-clk-320-avantgarde-a208-nYWkK8"
  ],
  "auctionState": [],
  "mileageMax": 0,

    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [

apify call getascraper/carandclassic-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,getascraper/carandclassic-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
