Search used cars listed on Carwow UK: for each car the listing id, public url, title, variant, price in GBP, location, year, mileage in miles, fuel, transmission, engine size, Carwow deal score, image and whether the card is a sponsored ad. Carwow returns 8 cars per page; page up to 100. When a brand or model has few cars, Carwow may add similar cars to the page, so check the title. A valid empty result is a successful response.
