Hi, I can’t seem to find the dropdown to enter ‘keywords’ eg model variant such as E55 or GT4 when using advanced search in classifieds on mobile phone (iphone or samsung).

Can anyone advise?

Thanks

I was just about to post this. Been meaning to since the 'view desktop version' disappeared.

Morning!

Thanks for taking the time out to report this.

As you may or may not know, CarGurus has just completed the acquisition of PistonHeads! This means the future is looking bright and we'll be investigating all reported issues in the near future.

We'll keep you posted.

Investigating but not doing anything about it? Its an easy fix and since most people now search on mobile devices, really annoying. Surely you can just get it switched back on by now?

Jack seriously this is such a simple problem to fix. We just want the keywords search input back on the mobile / tablet versions of the site. It is not a big ask, small fix. Rather than fob us off with this sales type chat why not just get it fixed. Its been months now. And its in your interest. The ads must be a key revenue stream for PH. People want to be able to search by car variant, GTI, RS, GT3, M1 etc. Its literally one of the most used features on any car/home search website. Especially since your own cataloging of certain variants is often suspect. Come on please just get this small but significant bug fixed....

For example. Looking for Mercedes A45s on mobile. Please show me how I can weed out all the other variants under your current search without the use of keywords? Its just unnecessarily annoying and no idea why you won’t just fix this bug....
