No timewasters, no tyre kickers, no test pilots, no offers

Johnboner

You want me to buy a car and I can't test it? Are you joking me? Good luck with the sale.
Just venting out my anger at the stupid ads that always seem to be selling the item that I want ughh I guess it's better to spend more and get the thing that I want without this ridiculousness. Oh you want to ask questions about the item? You are a timewaster! stop wasting my time! do you want the item or not? The thing is they are always selling the item that appears good but get offended when you ask questions. What are you supposed to just rush to them and give them all your money no questions asked? Give me a break.

What would kicking a tyre potentially test? The mileage, head gasket? Or is that just a general checkup to make sure the vehicle won't fall apart?

Not a lot but don't worry it's only classed as foreplay.
You won't lose your cherry till you start talking money.

It means they don't want you to buy it as you have a brain, the ad is looking for idiots without a brain to buy the car because the car is a piece of sh*t, the fact you went as far as following up on it with that proviso (because it looks too good to be true..) only just puts you above the idiot line, you're in the middle section that isn't quite sure and goes along far enough to waste your time, but before you lose anything significant, be thankful for that. This group also checks with someone else to verify they got a scam email (it's always a scam email) and probably thought about going down the direct marketing route for a bit of easy money, but hasn't actually done it.

Immaculate out of a box and near showroom condition.

There is that much farm excrement stuck to it and growth its hard to know where car begins and filth ends.

One very careful owners bags were OK and mint pre little tip.

One very careful owner equals to a ragged gearbox and clutch replaced many times including the 50k miles service interval.

Good tires all round no its tyres and they are as old as the car so well shot.

Service history equals one stamp out of what should be 10.

From the bike world: "Tyres 80%".

Yeah. Maybe if you measure by area instead of depth.

If you want to see how stupid people are though when you are trying to sell a car then check out Adverts.
Sometimes it's comedy but other times when a genuinely good car is asking i.e. 5k you will have people offer 1k CASH TODAY and expect to have a sale.
I saw an ad once where a lad offered his ps3...

Shure the sides are fine. .....For cornering

Most infuriating thing ever is some lad ringing you up, saying he'd be up later that day for a look and then doesn't show up. I don't mind if you change your mind about coming, just drop a text. I know I'm a bigger fool for letting it piss me off.

Cosworth, gti, m3, m5, civic, gsi, turbo - all added to the end of the add for the search, usually when selling a clapped out 99 Focus. The rise in internet usage over the years really shows how bad spelling, grammar and comprehension are in the country.

Cantona's Collars

Selling for de mother.

Translated as "de clutch is fooked"


Or the numptys that park the cars in water for the photos. I want to buy a car,not a boat.

Hate those ads. Invariably seems to be angry pricks who think they are doing YOU a favour answering the phone to them. They're usually grumpy as fúck, never volunteer any information and generally give off the air that everyone calling them is a timewaster until proven otherwise.

I gave up on those ads, if I see all catchphrases in an ad, I just move along.
