Genuinely honest and funny ebay ad (205GTi) - not mine!
Discussion
...and I've got no connection with the seller, just think it's worth posting.

"Despite all the offers we've had ( usually by the bin men - "do ya wannus to take it?" ), we've resisted the temptation and kept it for all you lucky ebay bidders."
"Set your sights low as we'd rather the lucky winning bidder was pleasantly surprised at the condition rather than being disappointed. If this was an episode of Wheeler Dealers, it would be the 'before' version."
"Not looking for any swaps or part exchanges, not even if it's a Starlet."
Etc, etc.

Liked the additional note he made after apparently having a few timewasters:

On 16-Apr-11 at 15:15:45 BST, seller added the following information:
Ok, I know I asked tyre kickers to come and view before bidding, but there is a statement that also goes: A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
I have listed all the faults that I am aware of so if you are coming to view a car that is older than you are, please be aware that I have been a mechanic since before you were born so please don't manufacture mysterious problems just to p155 me off.
I may be grumpy today and tomorrow I may be happier but sometimes I'd sooner send the little pug off to the great crusher in the sky than let annoying people have it.
Time for my medicine I think.
