Oops! Quite sad really as it reminds me of how we started to notice that there was something wrong with my Dad. He drove everything in his lifetime and had an excellent driving record. The only accident that he had before the "little touches" was someone coming out of a side road, straight into him! I was living 200+ miles away and he rang me to ask where he could buy some touch up paint. Mum had to grab the wheel on one occasion. I'm not saying that is the case here but it could be. The "valuation" also reminds me of his interpretation of what his car was worth.

Maybe the seller will buy a hoover with the money he gets for it?
I know most people look at their own cars with Rose tinted glasses but with the damage and my guess some computer enhanced pictures it will be for sale a long time. |

The mot history does not really match "Carefully serviced and maintained"

It looks like the usual 'one careful owner', but how many uncareful ones?
Does seem a shame though what otherwise looks a very good spec car and you don't get many nowadays with leather seats in such good condition as that, but way overpriced when you're probably looking a good couple of grand to sort the paintwork and wheels out. |

I know you're supposed to park it in the garage but I think the driver has taken this literally on more than one occasion!
The seller has a sense of humour at least "One careful owner".....& even the price is a joke |

One careful owner & 10 careless additional drivers lol, fantasy numbers in the price too.
Some adverts just make me feel Mick

I initially thought “ not too bad a price” - then I saw the body damage which has got to be in the £1K to £1.5K area to put right.
