poor ebay adverts....

...for example...

It's not hard is it, age? engine? half decent photos?

I really wonder why people bother sometimes. Not that i'm looking for a shed but an advert like that just puts me off straight away, wouldn't even bother enquiring further.

Well, from the photos its a G plate.. 1989 / 90, its a 3.6 and its done 121k miles. And its probably a basket case - thats enough info really on a scrapyard car

I'd say '89-'90.

Bit of a crap ad, but I guess he doesn't really care if it does go to the scrap yard.

they always use a massive font with their ads too.

I WOULD SAY IT NEEDS QUITE A BIT OF TLC

I'd agree with that statement, in fact it's a little understated.
