Their poorly run forum which is a magnet for cranks probably puts people off posting a classified ad.

I was pressured to release a car before the finance could confirm they had received payment and hit with terms and conditions the moment the auction ended. I won’t be using this company ever again.

I’ve been advertising my car on…
I’ve been advertising my car on PistonHeads for over a week now, but it doesn’t appear in my saved searches. I suspect others with saved searches have the same issue, meaning my car is only visible to those who conduct new searches, which many account holders might not do. Additionally, the phone number tab requires pressing twice to connect, as it initially displays an error message. This could deter some users from trying again. I emailed PistonHeads' support over four days ago, but aside from the automated response, I’ve heard nothing. The service is disappointing and feels like a waste of money since my ad has limited visibility and contacting me seems problematic. So far, the only interactions I’ve received are from scammers attempting to lure me to fake sites. In hindsight, I should have chosen another platform like Autotrader, where the software is more reliable.
This was a brilliant service to sell my car
This was a brilliant service to sell my car. At the outset I was given thorough advice on the process and how the car would be sold. The outcome came to a satisfactory result and I would recommend the company to sell a car.

Rubbish service, waste of money.
Over 1 week into advertising on PistonHeads. My car doesn’t come up on my saved search, and I think it very likely that it is the same for anyone else with a saved search - ie my car won’t come up unless a person searches newly, which a lot of people with an account won’t do. Also, the telephone number tab doesn’t go through to my phone unless it is pressed a second time. - initially just comes up with an error message. Presumably some people won’t bother to press it again as the error message will put them off.
Sent PistonHeads admin an email over 4 days ago - no reply other than the automated ‘we’ll get back to you’.
Truly terrible service and at this rate a total waste of money because less people will see the advert and then they won’t be able to reach me anyway.
The only contact I have had is from scammers via email trying to get me to visit bogus links.
Should have gone to autotrader or quite frankly anywhere else with software that actually works.

Excellent service, smooth as silk! Friendly attentive staff, plenty of timely information and advice. Have sold through PH before, so knew them well.

Sadly this site is no longer viable for selling a car as the scammers are relentless; phone and email, fake check sites and more are everywhere but is 10x on PH. As you know I've been sending them to you.

I highly recommend using PistonHeads if you have a vehicle to sell. From the initial enquiry through to sale and collection, Dave Marsden has been a fantastic support and a pleasure to deal with. He made the process really easy for me, went through finer details very clearly and made sure I fully understood every step. Once again, thank you very much for all your help Dave, couldn’t of done it without you 🙌🏻
