MG MGA - How To Sell A Car On Ebay

Great thread over on the midget BBS on how to sell a mint green Ford Focus on Ebay.

This is the advert:

Great advert. Fun reading. The seller is very imaginative and writes the copy well. It is reminiscent of the ubiquitous "Three Wolf Moon" Tee Shirt on Amazon.com, a real classic. Unfortunately, the e-Bay ad will fall into cyber never-never land some time after the aution.

Fun read and it is great to see someone having fun with words. I remember selling a grill on ebay a few years ago and I wrote a bit of a story to go along with it but I was chastised for not spending the same amount of time on a better description of the grill. Ha-ha. Subsequently, I wrote a very detailed description and it sold to someone in Spain.

Wow! That car has the same wheels as my 2005 Focus. I guess there ARE a few similarities between the US and European versions after all.

Actually, I take that back. I've been in a German Focus and the headlight switch is the same.
