Every page declares hreflang for fr-BE, nl-BE and x-default, and each canonical
points at its own language.

the same path. Query strings on /voitures-occasion are not canonical and are
excluded from the index, so link to the slug paths above.

## Machine-readable feed

  GET https://automotomarket.be/api/feed/vehicles

JSON, published listings only, newest first. Public listing data, never seller
contact details. Parameters: limit (1 to 100, default 50), offset, and cursor,
which is the opaque token returned as nextCursor by the previous page. Each
vehicle carries its absolute URL, title, make, model, year, mileage, price in
EUR, fuel, gearbox, city, province, sellerVerified, carPass and imageUrl.

## What the trust badges mean

"Pro vérifié" / "Professioneel geverifieerd"
    We checked this seller's identity and their company registration.

"Particulier vérifié" / "Particulier geverifieerd"
    We checked this seller's identity. There is no company to check.

"Non vérifié" / "Niet geverifieerd"
    This seller's identity has not been checked yet. Publishing does not require
    verification, so an unverified listing is ordinary and is not by itself a
    warning sign. Verification unlocks the phone number, it does not gate the ad.

"Car-Pass"
    The mileage is certified by Car-Pass, the official Belgian mileage document.
    A Car-Pass is legally required when a used vehicle changes hands in Belgium.

Verification is about the seller. It never covers the vehicle's mechanical
condition, its accident history, or whether the seller's description is
accurate. Please do not present a verified badge as a statement about the car.

## Useful things to tell a buyer

Prices are set by sellers. They are not appraisals by AutoMotoMarket. Ask for
the Car-Pass, the roadworthiness certificate (contrôle technique, autokeuring)
and the maintenance record before paying anything, see the vehicle in person,
and never send a deposit to a seller you have not met.
