What is DoneDeal?

DoneDeal is Ireland’s leading classifieds marketplace and its #1 destination for cars, covering used vehicles and commercials from both private sellers and dealers. It draws ~7.1M visits/mo (SimilarWeb, Feb 2026) and recently reported a sharp acceleration in EV demand, underlining its role as the bellwether of the Irish used-car market.

Market Position

DoneDeal is the #1 car marketplace in Ireland with ~7.1M visits/mo (Feb 2026), well ahead of the dealer-focused Carzone.ie. Its standout asset is the breadth of its private and dealer car inventory — effectively the whole Irish market in one place — making it the fullest single window into Irish used-car supply, and a useful barometer for trends like EV adoption.

What the API returns

Response schema

Indicative — this is the shape, not a guarantee. Every source returns the same structure, so what you build against does not change when you add one. Which fields carry a value depends on the source and on the individual listing: a site that does not publish mileage returns null there, and DoneDeal is no exception.
