General Car Chat / seems daft that I cant advertise my car to people who may need it

« on: 23 November 2011, 16:54:17 »

My car has been classed as a write off for a crash and is at the end of its years as a taxi so Ive got it advertised else where as I wasnt allowed to put it on here as I havent posted enough posts. I would rather it go to some on this forum. I have had loads of help from this forum and saved myself a fortune so surely if someone needed a car spares or repair this should be the place for it to go seems a daft rule to me.
