I sold my S1 Elise 111S within one week of listing, and to the first (and onyl) person to view. Incidentally, I also had enquiries from France and Germany.

Well done for improving opon an already successful format, but most of all for keeping the service FREE!

As a general observation, I could not find my advert using the search tool and inputting "111S", however, the advert did appear when browsing all "S1 Elise" adverts. Strange!

I agree about Impreza listings which could perhaps be divided in the following categories:

Classic,
Blobeye
Hawkeye
New Age

Or, simply divided between UK cars and Imports.

Trying to edit live ads and it says there is a problem
I will have a look into this in the morning though I expect it is due to the old live ad having smileys or HTML in it that is affecting the parser.
Ahh buggeration!

So Im going to have to do the ad again?
This should work now, let me know if you are still having problems.

I am putting through some new code now which will fix your editing problems. Expect it to make it to all the servers within the next hour. If still problems this evening then let us know.

I've edited my advert and upgraded to premium but it hasn't moved to the first page as they did before, why is this?

I've got a concern that the classifieds are fronted with the car catagories and not a search feature, therefore people just look at the first 2 - 3 pages they see when looking through a section (similar to when you do a google search) and don't look much further (as I do)

Took me some time to work out what I'd done wrong (length of ad and size of one of the pics), but that new system looks great. I just hope it fully uploads now!
