Where better?

Are you talking about the changes which were quite a while ago? I think they're better now.

I prefer it how it was. I'm not sure if it's an Adblock issue but I wasn't showing images for me a few weeks ago.

If I can't see the cars in the PH Classifieds as easily as I can on eBay, Autotrader and carandclassicsfreeads I'll browse there instead.

I can't see the pictures. I'm not prepared to turn adblock off because PH can't control their advert publishers...

Yes have to say I was trying to browse the classifieds yesterday and I gave up in the end, too much like hard work.

New style classified are absolute rubbish.
Designed by a committee that never met.

I don't like it at all either, the old set-up was much better.

Have to agree, I keep getting a blank screen when I go back from viewing an ad. Using Chrome and ad blocker. Much prefer the old simple classifieds.

That shows just how bad the new PH classified are.

When accessed on an iPad, it's unusable.

I just find is easy to navigate and find actual stuff on, unlike ph.

Previously I used to spend hours just flicking through cars on here, it's just not as easy anymore.

....and still they won't listen. Most of the time now I cannot even view the adverts. You try to click on a model of car and it just says that there are no adverts to view, despite there being 50/60/100/200 or whatever. Apart from all the other issues this is bloody shocking for people paying good money to sell on Pistonheads. Much as I dislike Autotrader and it's format, at least you can get to view the cars listed. Very, very poor

I agree with this too, much more useable and isn't constantly broken

Last couple of days I've not been able to view any ads either. Real shame because they were always worth a look.
Why would anyone bother advertising a car on the site now when people can't even see their add?
Just means we'll all look elsewhere.
