Misleading car adverts

A very annoying trend is developing with some advertisers on the Gumtree cars for sale section of the site. <br> <br> When searching for a particular make of vehicle, e.g. Citroen, many other makes often appear as well. This ad number is an example of what is happening: *** - A VW ad appears when searching for Citroen, just one of many such ads.This is because advertisers are commonly listing 'tags' of dozens of vehicle makes to the end of an advert. The Gumtree search facility then picks up on these key words and the irrelevant ad appears in the search results. <br> <br> This practise should be stopped by Gumtree as it defeats the object of using the search facility on the site.
