And, yes, please DO list all the "extras" your car has, such as fog lights, windscreen or antenna. I am deeply impressed, Mr Car Dealer on Autotrader. Oh, and dont forget "Internal Combustion Engine".

3/10 Serious lack of effort. Good point though, but that'll never change.

Autotrader does that automatically on trade adverts.
You must have very little going on in your life if such things bother you so much! Have you thought of taking up a hobby?

"Options" are "optional", so dear dealer, please list them.

A windscreen is not optional, a heated one is.

And an internal combustion engine isnt.

Options are fine, standard spec is tiresome to wade through to see if any options are listed within.

Oh.
