Main screen classifieds don't show race cars

[TOM500]

I have a bit of an axe to grind on this as I am selling a race car, however from the PH home screen there is no indicator that allows a casual browser to find the Motorsport cars for sale section. In addition if you search by make in the drop down menu on the PH home screen, in my case for an MG Midget (no plug intended), it only lists cars in the general sales rather than including cars which match the search criteria but are tagged as race cars. Any chance of an improvement?

No particular reason other than "that's the way it's always been".

But one wouldn't expect a buyer for a road car to casually browse for a racing car. Those interested in a racing car would actively seek that out.

You mean the bit that says Motorsport isn't obvious enough?

Moose, the bit that says Motorsport within the classified section is clearly displayed. I am not referring to that though. On the home page, on the right hand side, there is now a "Cars For Sale" quick search type drop down menu box into the classified vehicles for sale. This does not tell the casual searcher or person new to PH that they are not searching the whole database of vehicles, but only those that people have tagged as road cars. In addition, within this box, Motorsport vehicles are not an available option. Were you to look at Pistonheads as a new visitor, looking for vehicles for sale, you would be quite justified in assuming that this was all of the vehicles for sale. In fact, to access the full database you have to select Classifieds from the ribbon on the top line, next to features and before forums. My point is that anyone not knowing that the Classifieds had a different selection of vehicles than under cars for sale would not know more cars are listed. Hope that rather long winded explanation makes my point, as I say I do have an axe on this as I am selling a car but I think it would be a useful improvement to add a race car tab to the home screen selection menu. Off soapbox.
