Just received this (email removed for privacy): can you please remove the engine picture of your audi as this is not your car and you haven't asked me to use image of my car engine bay!!!!
If it doesnt get removed i will speak to piston heads My Email Address

I can assure the mods the pictures of the car are all mine, indeed if the gentleman has a copy of the engine bay picture shown in my advert it also is mine. The car is sat outside at the moment and I'm at a loss as to why anyone would be so lazy as to copy and paste a picture from another ad rather than just pop the bonnet when taking pics of the cars.

I'm sure a copy of the email exists on PH servers, could a mod take a look for me please.

Since there is no custard, how do we know it is yours?

Indeed just got back and got it, thanks for the speedy response and sorry to have wasted your time.

In fairness a reasonable point is raised by the custard comment, say the chap hadn't made a mistake and was convinced it was his engine bay (still think it's a bit weird) and complained, how the hell can you prove it is!
