"the wish to live forses sale"

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1986-LAND-ROVER-110-defe...

"I live on A38 just outside lichfield, a gate straight onto road, NO slip road. Must say gate

!00yds from slip road off to Lichfield, so nobody(car drivers) will move over for me, the truck drivers try but bloody car drivers won't let them, so every morning I dice with certain DEATH?

So in stead of tempting fate< i've decided to sell.,"

Don't know but I recently read an advert for a car with 3 previous owners. In the description was "current lady owner". Who cares with 2 more prev owners?

I am holding out for an unabused 1 prev owner example.

Very good, never seen anything like that before hehe

I did see someone selling an E39 Touring saying "first child forces sale".. Why?! Are you SURE it's not because the car looks shot to pieces?

There was that classic bike one which said:

Reason for sale - apparently my wife saying "you do whatever the hell you want" doesn't mean what I thought it did.

love the bike comment.

In regards to his wish to live, I give him this:


unless he has to leave that house everyday, no excuses.

I saw an Audi RS5 for sale the other day with the reason for selling being: "Unexpected twins on the way". Wouldn't put me off - I'd have baby seats in the back.

Yeah this. It has a little road that goes under the motorway to the nearby B road.

A lot of people say the house is there because the owner refused to move but in actual fact it's because it was easier to just build round him anyway. I think the house also sits on marsh land so even if they did knock it down the ground where the house is located still isn't strong enough to support a road.

I'd love a house with it's own tunnel. I'd never get anywhere, just blast up and down it all day!
