Am I missing something here, had a browse on Saturday looking for cars and I don't get it, I got very very pissed off with it.

I wanted cars within 50 miles and I was getting cars in Devon that supposedly were within 50 miles of me :confused:

How the hell do people use it to find cars???

I think people pay a premium to bump to the top of search criteria regardless of distance etc.

Kinda like the featured items on Forza 2 auction house.

Ah I see, makes a bit more sense.

Thing is if I do a search within 25 miles of me postcode and limit the price to 400 squids I get loads of cars, no problem as some are not what I'm after some will go for loads more money.

But I've got to physically click on each one to find out if it's got an MOT etc is there a way round that?? At least with Ad-Trader/Trade It you just look at the details of the car.
