    Does anyone know how much it costs to post an advert for a car for sale on Carzone?

    Unless I am blatantly missing it, they seem to keep this a secret. Is that a bad sign about Carzone? A bit dodgy these days?

    Not the same as before, use to be 15 euro indefintaly till the car sold but since autotrader took over the basic pack (online only) is 30 for two months. Donedeal is only 3 euro and handy for selling cars.

    It's on the front page, you are blatantly missing it:

    ^ That ad rotates and isn't always there. Eg

    The rotation seems to take around 8 seconds.

    I'm not meaning to be a smartarse, but hypothosising that Carzone have gone dodgy because you can't find the price of the ad seems a little OTT to me.

    For me it's every 3rd refresh, and in fairness to the OP you don't normally refresh a page to see if the ads change and reveal the price.

    If you're luck enough to sell you car in say 4 days then it's €10 a day!

    For me it's a banner ad that changes every 2 seconds (or so) and shows the price every 4th image.

    Maybe they have different banner ads for different browsers or something, that could explain the confusion.

    Anyhoo, mystery solved OP, happy selling!
