Not sure if there is a section for this kind of thing, but how the hell can people expect to get interest in their car if they write the ad like this?

It is a cat D, but it has been 'provisional repaired' so all good on that front, then.

I'm guessing that English is not his first language, just read it with an Eastern European accent & it almost makes sense. Far more so than ads I've seen written in chav speke innit bruv!

I always find it extraordinary the way people use massive fonts and capitals in ebay adverts.
