What does the market think my car is worth?

Original work can be found in the skoda_fabia. The peugeot_5008 is a incomplete example for a friend with a limited number of cars.

Requirements

Beside all the usual stuff as scikit-learn, pandas, seaborn etc. there are some extra dependencies. Selenium is needed to scrape the danish car sales website, where I intended to sell my car.

$ pip install selenium

Download the firefox headleass driver from:

Issues

If you get the error Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible. you need to uninstall firefox installed through snap (default on modern Ubuntu) and install through apt:

sudo snap remove firefox
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/ppa

To ensure that PPA/deb/apt version of Firefox is preferred edit /etc/apt/preferences.d/mozilla-firefox to contain
