Minimum Requirements For Advertising A Car * PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING FS THREADS *

With immediate effect, the following information is required to advertise a car for sale.

The title of the thread must show:

YEAR, MAKE, MODEL, LOCATION (e.g. 1999 Mitsubishi Galant VR4 London)

The advert itself must then follow this format (please copy and paste this into your advert):

YEAR:
COLOUR:
MILEAGE:
R.F.L.* EXPIRY DATE:
M.O.T. EXPIRY DATE:
PRICE:
CONTACT DETAILS:
DESCRIPTION:

The above information must be fully completed otherwise the advert will be deleted and you will have to readvertise with the correct info. A moderator will PM you if your advert is removed.

We recommend you leave contact details as "private message", however should you choose to put a phone number/email address etc in there then this is at your own risk.

We would also recommend posting some pictures of the car with the advert, and blanking out the number plate, but again this is your decision.

Regards

CVR4 Committee

* R.F.L. = Road Fund Licence, i.e. Vehicle Excise Duty, i.e. Car Tax

I feel compelled to bring this matter to the fore again:

Please comply EXACTLY with the minimum requirements when selling a vehicle in the UK Cars For Sale forum, otherwise your thread will be deleted.

This thread is a sticky within the forum, and is viewable at the top of the forum listings, mere millimetres (depending on your screen size, of course) from the 'New Thread' button.

It is there for a reason. It is difficult to bring it much more to your attention when you go to the UK Cars For Sale forum. It also has the words * PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING FS THREADS * emblazoned across it in CAPITAL letters, so that even Mr Magoo is able to read it.

The Moderators have been very fair since the Requirements were introduced, and often tidied up FS threads to comply, or given sellers a bit of time to edit the threads, but it's not fair that their time should be used in this way.

So, in summary, read the Minimum Requirements For Advertising A Car, before posting your FS thread. :rulez:

That is all.
