Where have all the Griffs gone ? Only 11 ads and 6 are 'sold via pistonheads', so only 5 actually for sale.
Surely Fernies etc can't have sold all their stock over the holidays !!

Very unlikely at their prices! Does seem strange though as the general listing for Griffs says 22 but that isn't what's there. I wouldn't be surprised if some people take them off sale at this time of year and then re-list in a few weeks when things are more likely to move.

I think it is a Jan 1st 2010 problem. It's not just the Griff classifieds that are affected.

i think "something" happen in the ads.
caus the Elise went to usually 5 pages of ads to just 3, and all removed in 1 day.
a change in the ads rules maybe?

Have they increased since the site problems then? They look to be the same prices, no?

Just look at the Fernhurst adverts, they seem 'confident' enough at the moment.

No increases there. Fernies and a few other dealers have been advertising (and seemingly selling) cars at those prices for at least 2 years. I think Fernies are noticable in the classifieds due to the number of cars they have.

From what I found when I was looking for one was that Fernies had a good selection of very nice low mileage cars (including yours 'ncs' * which very nearly came home with me wink until Drew found the exact car I was looking for).
