Members Fleet. Could cars be grouped?

[dick dastardly]

Just a thought...

When searching to see what cars other PH members have the cars seem to be all over the place, designated be what ever people type them in as, rather than in groups.

e.g. Looking for other Z3M Coupe owners I have to go through the Z M Coupe, Z3M Coupe, ZM Coupe, M Coupe, ZMCoupe, etc.

It would be much better if these all fell under one Z3M Coupe category.

Yep, I do plan to do that as it's a right mess currently!

I'll probably use the same hierarchy as in the classifieds section.

I think there is definitely scope for improving this system but it would require a lot of maintainence on Ted's part. I can't think of any easy way for Ted to sort all the data into the correct categories, but would certainly be of benefit if it could be done

It wouldn't be too difficult to clean up about 90% of it using pattern matching.

I don't know what pattern matching is but its pretty damn cool if it can sort all that out! :hehe;
