I would agree - why blank out the reg ? As a buyer I want to be able to do some checks myself .....would skip straight past that one.

See post above, trying to protect from cloning nothing else.

There's no real reason to blank out the reg as others said and it could put people off.

If you are going to cover it up at least do it neatly! It looks like a toddler has scribbled on the photo with a white marker

Personally I find the word 'genuine' always makes me start thinking about the opposite.

I just don't get this general fear though, if someone wants to clone a relatively common car, they'll see plenty on the road to take a number off.

I think the whole cloning from pictures thing is just paranoia based on propagated 'mate of a mate spoke to a bloke in the pub whose wife once cut the hair of someone who knew a guy whose car was cloned from a picture on Facebook' type stories.

Oh s*|t. :rotfl: thanks. Going back in to change that.
It is though as it has always been serviced and bits changed as and when. Example is new water pump, new rear brakes and split air on pipe all done in the last six month.

Any suggestions as to what I should title it with?
Cheers

Funnily enough though, the vast majority of those 'my cars been cloned' stories are raised because someone has had a ticket they don't want to pay, and rarely do the posters come back to finish the story...

I'll be back to say how I managed to sell it.

Honest.

Cheers very much all.
The suggested changes have all been made. I think it takes up to a day for them to show.
Very much appreciate the time taken to respond.
