One owner 1.2L Nova for a bag
Discussion
A mate of mine once bought an original one-owner one in better condition than this (albeit higher miles) from an old lady on the Isle of Wight for £275. It was a saloon and metallic hearing aid beige with Werther's Original interior.
What he didn't trash driving like an idiot managed to self-immolate over the 3 or so years he owned it, including most of the ignition wiring melting. The car was last seen heading towards a scrapyard after increasingly desperate and bodgetastic fixes failed to stave off the onset of unroadworthiness.

Also, why do people put "no timewasters" in car ads? Do they think that people will say to themselves "hell, I was going to send the guy lots of emails, and maybe even go and suck my teeth a bit and kick the tyres, and afterwards go completely silent, but as it says that, I won't"? Do ads lacking this mantra imply "timewasters especially welcome"?

I really, really like this. Not sure if I have rose-tinted glasses on, but for £1000 this could be the ultimate city runaround...no mods, no add-ons just as Vauxhall intended.

Who needs an ADAM when you can zoom around in this? You've (probably not) been Novataken.

It needs to be a nice shade of brown
I suggest that you seek a further opinion from the experts:-

I was thinking the exact same thing the other day."No dreamers/tirekickers/test pilots/timewasters"
"relisted due to timewaster"
"No money, no test drive"
Honestly, those sorts of things put me off looking at a car. Do these people believe that unless they put these down on the ad that they'll forever be pestered by buyers who simply want to rake their car about? Truth is, they just sounds like knobs. Time to crossreference threads methinks.

In a similar vein, why do people put "car is advertised elsewhere and I reserve the right to remove the auction at any time" ? I mean, who the f"No dreamers/tirekickers/test pilots/timewasters"
"relisted due to timewaster"
"No money, no test drive"

k cares? If it sells it sells, if it doesn't it doesn't. What is all this "rights reserving" BS?Breadvan72 said:
The language is needlessly formal, but there is no harm in telling people that an auction might end early, as that might encourage people to bid early rather than wait for the last minutes.
My considered opinion is that it will make fk all difference.
