is it any good? is it worth paying the money to put it on there?

if anyone has used it did you sell your car through it?

for example, they ring you up saying

"i can sell your car within an hour, just pay us £50 registration fee, we have 1000's on our client list - u wont be disappointed"

but you will be, as they really have no clients

if its a standard car, think of all the other standard cars for sale, some cheaper, lower miles etc

if its a 2.0 corsa or modified, then it should stand out, but reashing the right person is a nightmare

advertise it on the car etc also, modded car mags, websites
