Received an email from What Car, subject line asking if I was thinking of selling my TVR this year?

It was addressed directly to me, they knew my name and a couple of other details.

"As a PistonHeads member, we know you enjoy your cars. We thought you'd like to hear about our new car buying portal on our sister site, What Car?"

Who else is Haymarket selling/sharing my details with?

Haymarket aren’t sharing info with anyone. What Car? is owned by Haymarket.

Yep. If you've got an adblocker, turn it off and you'll find PH is currently swamped with a bloody annoying "What Car Karma" banner & boxed advert nearly every time you open a thread / forum page.

Even better when it serves itself up 4 times on the same page - twice in the top 2 header slots, one at the footer slot and the boxed advert halfway down the page mixed in with the posts.

I've received one exactly the same.
