Sorry but this really annoys me. You come on yesterday to purely advertise your car. If it were my choice the listing would be removed.

There were requirements about listing "For Sale" items but they're not applied anymore because it's another thing Gaz has to monitor himself. Mike used to do this but the last time he and I talked about this is about a year ago and as you know he's not here now.
Personally I don't have an issue with this solely because someone in the USA might see this and buy the car and, in turn become a regular member and contributor on here.
We don't know what the OP is intending replacing his Z3 with either, he may come back with another Z, maybe a Z4. Oh, and it is the season of goodwill you grumpy old git;):)

Tony.

Erm he has bothered coming on here whilst owning his Z3 though Tony so for me he's on here for free advertising which I think is wrong and unfair to Gaz. He doesn't run the forum for people to jump on and advertise on a whim. In my book you earn a few stripes first, you get involved, mingle a bit or even contribute a little.

That's how it used to be Dave, but, like I said it's just one more thing that Gaz has to do himself now Mike isn't here anymore. I don't agree with people joining just to sell either but what is the alternative?

What the guys are saying is in their view, and mine to be fair, is that people simply use the forum as a means to an end, ie selling their car which likely means they won’t be a contributing member, and never have been.

Just an observation. How is he to know that? The guide for Sales post, while sticky, doesn’t appear anywhere near the top any more. You have to go searching for it. If you’re on a mobile it is buried way down the posts and out of view.

Only regulars know that there are expectations for our community. Most forums are not like us.
We all make honest mistakes. Just saying.

Fair point Ian but you are a lot more reserved than I ;). Just think it's a bit off that's all I'm saying. You pay £50 to advertise your car on AT now days.

True Tony. There probably is no answer, I sure it will continue from time to time.......preferably via Autotrader, Gumtree etc etc.........

Only on the outside Dave :whistle:
Learnt quickly from bitter experience in the very first early days of email to not press send when angry/annoyed/upset etc ;)
Inside I may be boiling and very close to an eruption of Krakatoan proportions :eek: =))
