On other Forums they dont allow Whats it worth posts
I think this would be a nice policy to run here,
Also a what to by with £**** and a Whats faster post ban would be nice but 1 step at a time,

why? it allows people to think about buying cars they never thought of before.
if you don't like them, don't read them not that hard.

I dont mind them, you'd end up with a dead forum aswell if you start disallowing everything.

yeah but edition38 is full of proper nazi stylee moderators, dont mention vw in a thread and its locked and deleted before you know it. and they definitely have an "in crowd" on there, certain members can do anything no matter how small and everyone else is wanking over it.

Thats true, But they also have a Non Vag section, The same is true of Passion ford, You dont have a cossie then nobody talks to you, But both sites are better because of the no silly posts rule,
I like looking in general chat on here but there is allways at least 1 silly post on the first page alone, Take time to look and you may understand what i mean, All the good posts get pushed to the 2nd page, But the really good ones like this 1 dont haha

thats pathetic badge snobbery at its best...
the reason this site is so good is because of the banter and the wide range on knowledge on here about many marques of vehicles.
it's more than just a car site

I enjoy the "What Car" threads. As it gives me a chance to hunt for cars that I wish I owned

The thing is though if you look on piston heads and stuff its not that accurate, you get some people massivly over valueing cars because they are not really that arsed about selling and people with really low prices as they want to get rid quick. Its fine if they say this in the ad but they dont always.....what you need is people who have reacently bought or sold or know someone who has, you only get that from a whats it worth or how much should i be looking to pay post. Obviously you get people saying i think its worth so much, but In my opinion thats still better than looking at the for sale sites.

I know adam but you can still work out where you should be aiming, It really isnt hard, you can see what cars are selling and what cars are there week after week, i did it when i sold my MK3 golf, I did it when i Bought my MK4 golf, And i bet if you think about it you dont need to ask eather.
