Seriously?
I know it's for sale in Scunthorpe, but even the local drug dealers have more class, surely?

This is what happens when you spend to much time on Ebay.

Very disappointing.
After all that effort that went into the exterior, the interior is absolutely bog standard and untouched.Not an eBay MPerformance sticker or Halfords mobile holder to be seen.
Amateurs. Must try harder.

Absurd. Its either sporty of comfortable.
It reminded me of a Ford Ecosport in an attempt to catch two rabbits at once.

We all have our quirks and varying degrees of sh*t taste so I can almost forgive the badges and stickers, but I'm amazed that's for sale through a dealer. Seriously what dealer would list that for sale looking how it does?!?

I saw a model Y yesterday, it had extended wide wheel arch kit and some Carlos fandango wheels on, and unless they do a sort of Nardo grey now it must have been wrapped. It was a 22 plate. That shape and what had been done looked so wrong. I very nearly threw up.

Some cars should not be wrapped/bodykitted etc. Teslas are definitely amongst that group.

The thing that strikes me with this, is how bone idle dealers are these days.
Half an hour with a hairdryer and an hour in a paint shop would get that looking like a decent 'executive' 7 series again which would surely be much more saleable?

Or does absolutely no-one give a shit anymore?

This, x1000, and it's not just with cars. I was picking up pizza for a Friday treat and got there well before my stuff was ready. The phone was ringing off the hook, but nobody working there made any attempt to pick it up. Apparently, the phone is broken, and has been for a few days. Um, really?

Getting back on topic, did anyone else notice how none of the pictures in the ad show the condition of the wheels and the sides of the body? Hmmm.

^^This
You've only got to take a look at the amount of Autotrader ads where the seller couldn't even be bothered to vacuum the floor mats.

Well the ad description for this "5" series seems to suggest what it would be like buying a car from them....

Parking sensors for a smooth arrival almost sold it me mind.

This is one of those adverts that make me really want to call the dealer and show them the error of their ways.
I have done it before, just for fun. It has NEVER ended well. I know, I should get a life!

Now that double glazing sales people never call anymore, it's the only fun I have.
