Martin doesn't endorse any indivual website except his own. It would seriously affect his integrity if he did.

The website does say 'featured on' rather than 'endorsed by' but I will put a link to your post into the site questions section of the forums.

This thread explains the arrangement to some extent.

Hi thanks for the answers and the link to original thread, i was surprised, because i had checked the site using search engine on moneysaving and nothing came up.

i did think martin didnt endorse any company/organisation.

i will let you know how i get on with my mot at one of the garages on the list.

thanks

It doesn't say Martin endorses the garage, just that it is featured by him on this site.

Maybe it's just a way Martin has of overcoming the credit squeeze by offering to sell this "featured on MSE" logo with his image on it to any company's that get a mention on the site.
