    Ebay item number 320381807408

    The seller gets a laugh for trying to shift an absolute dog of a Fiat
    Punto - minus wheel, steering wheel, V5, working clutch and major engine
    components - for a £500 starting price, but I don't think I've ever seen a
    worse spelled eBay ad ... and that's saying something.

    I did chuckle to see that the very first question cut straight to the issue
    at hand.

  2. I think "Privet number palte worth over 1500" deserves some sort of
    award.

    And

    "have 14 days to have the car removed or thay will take it and crush it"
    just encourages people to stand back and say: "Bring it on!"

    The space where there should be a battery also amuses. I'd expect puffs
    of smoke to emanate from every corner of the loom, the moment one's
    connected.

    "Hello, we have a new Pope...."

    Eloquent response from the seller there as well.

    I'd guess he's bought it and been stitched up with all the "little
    tlc" jobs that needs doing and is now Nigeing it out.

  4. That's my take on it, although I'd have thought the absence of a turbo
    and battery, would have been obvious.

    The alloys are nice, mind.

    To hedge my bets I'd still leaf it well alone.
    I'm also not convinced that the clutch will be that easy to sort - even if
    it is a hydrolis one.

    Actually, I've now seen his other auctions. I'm not surprised his
    landlord is threatening to have it crushed. He's got a whole carpark
    full of shite.

    Jesus H Christ. What a fucking abortion of an auction. The car's shite
    too.

    He was quite forthright with his answer to the second question, wasn't
    he? I'm not sure eBay approve of language like that.
