Pistonheads what the hells happened?
It looks like pistonheads has changed and they are now trying to make money rather that just advertising cars before.
Before you would just do the ad and the car would be the most recent one but now if you do the ad they put to ones which have been paid for 1st then the other ones come so if you dont pay for it no one will really see your car which your selling.
I put a car on and could not find it then after a couple of days i thought i would put it on again to see if i made a mistake but no same thing emailed them and didnt really get a proper answer.
Whats happening to it???

They sold out to Haymarket publishing, so they are now a commercial enterprise rather than an enthusiast ran site..
