		Link to ad
I have done a screen grab in case the advert gets edited / deleted later.
 
It won't take long to read.

		This is sexist but it's got to be a girl that has listed that.

If you look at the category they even got that wrong - so they haven't even paid for a classified ad.
 
The price just went from £300 to £600 since I posted the thread too.

I'd put money on it being a foreigner that's written it tbh, though it could be a female one of course.  
 
Looks like the gumtree ad's with unpronounceable contact names.

True, hadn't noticed that.  Judging by the tow eye on the front, I'd guess it's supposed to be listed for parts or spares/repair.  A little more info may've helped though.

I'd hope that there's a whole child attached to that leg, and that there isn't just an infants limb on the passenger seat. That would make it a bit disturbing...

Yea I guess if you're going to try and fob someone off with your obviously f*cked car you should probably removing the towing eye before taking the pictures.
 
FWIW it's tax ran out at the end of April and the owner 'should' have received a fine in the post by now. 
It's got MOT till next June which is nice.
 
DVLA website says it's a 2 litre petrol, 188 g/km CO2
 
At 101,000 miles whats the chance they never bothered to change the cam belt and it finally snapped

Why?  My cars are never sold insured, the insurance is swapped onto the new car.
 
Anyone else noticed the ad's been updated with more info now.....but its still listed as a 306.

		Is it acceptable to bid it up to stupid money, and then refuse to pay because it's not a 306??
