Website Revamp Suggestions?

[markmullen]

Our current website has served us well for the past few years but is looking a bit dated.

We're working on a new site to be launched shortly and wondered what you would like to see.

My main thing is more detail of the cars and photos that can be viewed larger, both of which are incorporated in the new site.

Any more views would be appreciated.

Larger photos and more of them are definitely needed. Also I think it needs to be as simple. A bit like this one... http://www.tomhartley.com/

Don't really need to use flash as much as Hartleys site though as it can be a bit slow sometimes

Get someone to design it.

KISS, something like the PH classifieds.

More info, better photos clickable thumbnails.

Don't go overboard with flash and shit.

and get the web designer to knock up a mobile/PDA friendly version as well with a simple script, so if it detects a phone browser it displays that page.

I agree with KISS. Flash is to be avoided since the search engines would have issues indexing your cars....

In fact, Keep It Simple was the brief from the last two car dealers I did sites for... [was that subtle enough?]

Not really, can you put that in bold

Well since you asked....

Heres one. Its fully functioned but a basic design. Obviously Marks website would have a much classier branding...

This is our new web site, it's not gone live yet but we are in the final stages of testing. I would appreciate any feed back:

Now that's exactly what i'm talking about, clickable photos and a good description.
Just needs a simple title on the car index page and it'd be perfect.

And full screen width too, but that's more of a fetish of mine, i'm not a massive fan of centre boxes.

My issue with the descriptions is that it very hard to read the narrow width 'newspaper' style column.

I like the gallery view option.

The only problem is the formatting, for instance here the prices cut into the title:

That's using Opera 9.51

Indeed, if it had a title and a 1 line description then when you click the photo it loads up the full lot it would be perfect
