    A lot of regular cars claim in adds to be rare or special editions and certainly are not. “Individual” claims with certain dealers. I am a sucker for a rare car or one with a special or unique history.

    Rare.... but most with a reason.. As nobody wanted to have actual model. Such as recent few ads on DD, mr2 mk 1 as auto?? X5 E70 4.8 petrol. Who would like to have them or drive today in ireland. This doesnt make them rare, as its more rare to get new owner for them...
    And, not as your usual rubish... Jeeesus...this pisses me off and dont want even to finish rear the ad... it sounds like, i have the best d.ck ....

    When I see it, its generally on an advert where the owner is pretty clueless - the lads who genuinely have rare machinery for sale don't usually have to mention that their car is actually rare.

    “The values of these are only going one way”

    Another irritation is the ads where they give the history of the model or manufacturer. Ten paragraphs before you even get into the actual car details.

    "spec to big to list" - either there is no spec or its full of garbage that adds no value.

    Or even worse - 'All Mod Cons' or 'All the Extras'

    I suppose the fact is so many people see a car in the same vein as a disposable appliance and have little to no interest in them (maybe other than the perceived impression it may give them from others) - PCP for 3 years, replace, PCP for 3 years, replace and so on....
