Classified Advert Page Moving Around
Discussion
Reported this few months back and ended up using a browser that blocks adverts.
Ironic that the adverts cause the problems, so you end up blocking them.
Just tried this back on iPad main browser (safari) and yep as stated , on the main classified page it loads ok, then half a second later a huge white block at top pushed rest of page down, then around a second or two later the advert loads, which is smaller than white block and the whole page moves back up again. Makes it a pain to try and navigate to relevant car section.

PH, do you have access to tablets such as iPads, to check impact of any changes you implement ? Using the desktop site for classifieds not only shows the problem above, but you'll find adverts half overwrite pistonheads logo etc. Looks somewhat amateurish, especially for classified section where punters pay to place Ads

For me, it's Safari on a Mac...Ironic that the adverts cause the problems, so you end up blocking them.

Once we release the new classifieds home page we won't have that issue. Since we've been focused on the new homepage we've stopped developing the homepage you're seeing.
Nah - you'll just have the issues with the new classifieds 
For example - the images under the main image on the advert page
