I know this was asked a few weeks back, and iirc i replied saying it was still free.
But ive just tried to submit an ad and its not giving me the option of a free ad.
Just has Private Advert (£9.99) or Trade Advert options.
Can some1 have a look please.

Its £9.99 for 30 days unless you registered on PH forum before a certain date(2008 I think).
Just stick it on auto trader (which is also an absolute joke in terms of price). We sold ours pretty quickly on there a few days ago for more than we wanted.

When did you put them up though Eck??
According to that link that Nathy has put up, its no lnger free to non PH forum members.Must have just changed pretty recently.
That will be the down fall of the classifieds now.

£9.99 for 30days.
Was going to put Golf on but wont bother better off with AutoTrader now.
PH was always great for free adverts, never used the forum so not signed up.

No, i was under the impression that it will only be accepted if it had been around the Nurburgring.

One of the best sites for cars for sale, within a year it will be back to free as it will just die off if the majority have to pay.

I've just put a free ad up and everything was normal for me. I agree that it is the best site around for selling/buying car, espeically modified ones. Hopefully this change won't make it quieter.
