    Hi All,
    We have a site which we suspect has been hacked as when we use: http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/scanner/ it reports:

    status: Site blacklisted, malware not identified
    web trust: Site blacklisted.

    WordPress version outdated: Upgrade required.
    Can’t upgrade? Subscribe to Sucuri Website Firewall to stop attackers in their tracks!

    Under blacklist Status It says:
    Domain blacklisted by SiteAdvisor (McAfee): domain.com - reference
    This link might be dangerous. We tested it and found security risks. Beware.

    We have now updated Wordpress
    If you can immediately help, please PM me.
    Regards,
    DS

    we can help only if you show us the url

    usually its the v i a g r a selling links, which are hidden in the div, so users can't see it, but search engines do.

    Really ?? lol
    mate ,sucuri will work up to one extend and have many limitations .In this digital world ,you must have proper updated patches and routine manual scan/code audit in every 2-3 months to avoid new attacks .I have also worked on sucuri like project ,used it personally and i know all tactics about them .

    op, I only took a quick look and nothing obvious jumped out at me. Id recommend you starting off with using wordfence to scan your wordpress (its a free plugin) but no doubt the other experts in the thread will find fault(s) with this suggestion.

    At any rate, while I am here, in your widget area, under "Contact us for all you tuning needs" you have two closing link tags that are out of order. They are currently
    <a/>
    Code (markup):
    they should be
    </a>
    Code (markup):
    Also where your phone number says "call for a free quote" if you split the phone number from the tagline "or visit our vehicle list for vehicle gains" you can make the phone number dial automatically on a smart phone. something like this will work:
    <ahref="tel:01473 760047"><imgsrc="phone_number.jpg"/></a>
    Code (markup):
    but this comes down to if you are pushing for calls or pushing for people to visit your vehicle list.

    Goodluck.
