Odd, isn’t it, it’s there but it’s not there!

This works for me.

The link works but anybody generally browsing or searching will miss it though.

EBay says it can take a while for a listing to be incorporated at busy times. I’ll try again tomorrow, see if it sorts itself out.

I’d say it’s been a while already Alan!

It’ll work when it works, I guess.

Nice to know I’m not crackers!😵*💫

Good morn Andrew,

I have changed the model type in the listing from '244' to '240' because eBay didn't seem to like the former. I think that may have solved the problem - would you try doing a search and see if it works at your end?

Chaps,

I've just tried searching for 'Volvo 240' in the classic cars section and the RB's ad did appear this time. It does not seem to be possible to search for 'Volvo 244' in the same section - so I'm guessing that was the problem.

I'm not sure it matters much from a selling point of view in that most prospective buyers would probably search for '240' rather than '244', but it is a little irritating that the database didn't allow me to list it by its proper model name.

If you have a minute perhaps you would see if you can find the ad from a search (rather than from the link) - that would be really helpful.

There it is!!!!!!

I reckon it could easily be the 244 it didn’t like.🤷

All good now.😀👍

Let’s hope there’s an orderly queue!

Wonderful.

I think it must have been the '244' bit that didn't work.

I've just tried opening ebay in general and typing volvo 245 in the search box. https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_f...5&_sacat=29751 came up = 2 cars.
Changing the 5 to a 4 (volvo 244) got me thousands of parts.
Curiouser and curiouser.
