StevepGT3 Posted 6July, 2017 Report Share Posted 6July, 2017 I must admit I wouldn't list a car for sale until I cleaned it to showroom looking condition. Photos of an unkempt car says to me the car is neglected, and makes me wonder what else has been overlooked. If he was too busy with something else, he's too busy to sell the car so should wait until he has the time. (my 2c)You are so right, I would much rather buy a car from someone handy with a vac and dish cloth, than someone capable of servicing said car, or infact building a car from the ground up. As soon as I see this I hit the [X] on my screen. Seriously how hard is it to operate a vacuum for some people. Turns out, that it is discolouration of 27 year old carpet, and that it has in fact been cleaned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy selling the S2 in Sydney is struggling to sell his because the car looks crap in the photos. He's a Porsche mechanic, so surely that's the one to buy!?!
