Did have a look but couldn't see a thread on this already.

If you look at the Classifieds section all the adverts have exactly the same text, something about Quicksilver exhausts, and none of the original text.

What happened there?

Ahh

I'm glad it's not just me that is seeing this then!

"QuickSilver produce exhaust systems for the world's finest cars.

QuickSilver/'s /'Titanium SuperSports/' system is ideal. At low rpm this system has a deeper tone than stock, allowing conversation and the radio.
At higher rpm the volume and pitch increase considerably, rising and falling with revs, a robust
sound that is appropriate to Lamborghini. Less weight, more power, fabulous sound and

  • Huge reduction in weight of 21.4kgs or (~47lbs), from the rear of the car even lighter -
benefiting all areas of performance!
  • Wonderful sound
  • All original exhaust Sensors and Probes are retained in their original positions
  • Accelerated gas-flow draws heat away to reduce under-bonnet temperatures
  • We recommend that the factory catalytic converters remain in place
  • 100% aircraft grade Titanium silencer and type 304 austenitic Stainless steel tube
View our website below for more information and to discover your local dealer.

Part Exchange: SORRY"

Yep, and far more mundane than being hacked i'm afraid.

The moral of this story is never make manual changes to a database before you've had your coffee paperbag
