Indeed it a 'Hell of a Write up'. I'm more of a Dickens man myself, at least his books are shorter.

Id never buy a car off anyone who advertised using "L@@K" out of principle!

Adverts like that put me off, far too long winded. Short and to the point not lots of waffle. If anything I'd think they were trying to hide something.

I'd have more confidence in her if she registered her eBay account properly and lost the waffle about deposits and contact times.

My passengers could not cope with the leg room in the back. Been in my mates today and I had to move my passenger seat quite a long way forward so my wife could get in the back. ( Don't say that's where she should be) less room in the back than our cars.

Old marketing factoid: the longer the copy the more responses you will get.

Thankfully the X350/X358 models are aluminium so you can put the angle grinder away.
