[Talkingcars]

not being funny, but why take pics of the engine bay when its in such a state?? the car looks (from the pics and your description) very very unloved.

The picture of the engine bay tells me

1) Nice clean coolant
2) Resonable PAS fluid
3) No Sheddist
4) The owner isn't trying to hide the fact that it is a working car

Personally I would rather see a dirty engine bay pictured rather than no engine bay.

And I think the ad is a good one, no rubbish, clear and to the point.
