How to: put up a classified advert

[Tactical]

Please use this guide when selling vehicles / parts in the classified section

The classified section is becoming increasingly clogged with duplicate threads and "bumped" old posts. With this in mind, a new set of guidelines have been put in place to make the adverts easier to read and moderate. Please read the following carefully to prevent your thread being deleted.


Must haves:
- What are you selling?
- Exact price or sensible price range
- An accurate description
- The condition of the item
- Good quality photos (posting "see my project thread" is not acceptable)
- Contact: how should people get in touch? (PM, e-mail, phone?)
- Payment method

If any of the above points are missed out, the thread will be deleted without warning.


An example:

For Sale: 1995 Vauxhall Corsa 1.6 GSi 16v in Caribic Blue
Condition: Used
Price: £1500
Payment: Cash on collection or Paypal
Contact method: PM or e-mail tactical@allcorsa.co.uk

Description:
Here I have for sale my beautiful Corsa GSi in Caribic Blue. The car has 83,000 miles on the clock and is in near-mint condition. Service history is extensive as the previous owner (my step-brother) was a Vauxhall mechanic for many years and still carries out work on it when needs-be.

The bodywork is sound, but has a few minor bad points: the bonnet (near the grille) is very rusty and the laquer is coming away on the front bumper. However, these are easilly fixed for a small sum.

The engine is in perfect working order, as are the electrics and other workings. All fixtures and fittings are sound for a vehicle of this age.

Modification wise, the stereo is from a 2001 Vauxhall Zafira, new angel headlights have recently been fitted, the bootlock surround has been colour-coded, new Richbrook gear gaitor & gear knob fitted and there are several other bits that aren't yet fitted on.

For an extra £500, I will throw in 4 x Cesaro wheels with tyres, new FK coilovers, colour-coded door handles, new Richbrook handbrake gaitor & lever, Caribic Blue spray paint & primer, clear rear-lights & bulbs, 2 x GSi badges, an old-style Vauxhall badge and much, much more.

Price is non-negotiable. First to see will buy.

If it's active and going well, it can stay open longer. If a thread is dead but keeps getting bumped, it'll be closed
