Buying a used car on AUTO.RIA? Get new ads in Telegram

Search on AUTO.RIA, sort by newest
Turn a budget into a specific car
On AUTO.RIA, open the used passenger cars and pick the make and model, then the generation if the site offers one for that model. Add a year range, a mileage ceiling, fuel type, gearbox, the region you will travel to and your top price. Sort by date so the newest ads come first, then copy the page address from the browser bar.

Paste the address into MXSender, choose Telegram
Telegram is the first option because it needs nothing installed beyond the chat you already use. Viber and email are there too, and the same search can go to more than one of them.

New listings land in your Telegram
Look at the card, then call
Every newly listed car from your search arrives as a card: a photo, the title, the price and a button that opens the ad on AUTO.RIA. A per-search hashtag sits under it, so a Golf search and a Superb search can share one chat without getting mixed up.

Make, model, generation: narrowing AUTO.RIA to one car
AUTO.RIA lets you say exactly which car you mean, and that matters once alerts start. If you only want a manual diesel estate, a search that also lets in petrol saloons with an automatic will fill your chat with cards you skip.
Two filters are worth a second thought. Set the mileage limit a little above your ideal number, because sellers round figures and a car just over the line can be the better buy. Do the same with price: Ukrainian private sales usually leave room for a conversation.
Imported from the EU or the US: questions for the seller
Some of the cars on AUTO.RIA were brought in from abroad. Ask whether the car is already cleared and registered in Ukraine, which country it was driven in before, and what was repaired after it arrived.
For an imported car, check the VIN against history services that cover its country of origin as well as the Ukrainian registers. A checked-VIN mark on an ad is useful context, not a replacement for your own look.
What a Telegram card lets you decide on the spot
The photo and the price tell you in a glance whether this is the car or not. If it is, the button opens the full ad with mileage, equipment and the seller's number. If you are buying with a partner or a mechanic friend, forward the card: it keeps its photo and button. The same chat is on Telegram Desktop too.
How often your search is looked at depends on the plan. Free covers one search, checked every 30 minutes. Starter, at $5.99, covers five searches checked every 10 minutes, and Pro, at $14.99, covers twenty with the fastest checks. Telegram is on all three.
A deposit request is where you stop
Ask for the VIN before you drive anywhere and look up the registration history, the number of owners and any restrictions. At the viewing, match the VIN on the body to the registration certificate and the owner's name to the seller's passport. Take the car to an independent garage you chose, not one the seller suggests.
Never send money to hold a car you have not seen. The calmest way to pay is at re-registration in an MVS service centre, once the papers are checked and the contract is signed.
βFrequently asked questions
Can I follow two different models at once?
Yes, add each as its own search. Each card carries its search's hashtag, and Starter or Pro give you room for more than one.
Will I get the cars already on the page?
No. The first check records what is there now, and only cars listed after that are sent to you.
Do dealer cars show up as well?
Whatever your AUTO.RIA search shows is what you get. If you limited the seller type on the site, the cards follow that limit.
Can one search stay quiet?
Yes. Mute it, and its cards still arrive in the chat without a sound, which suits a backup model you only want to keep an eye on.
Does MXSender vouch for the car or the seller?
No. We only tell you a new ad appeared. The history, the papers and the condition are yours to check.
