    Just for laugh ....

    - It has never seen a drop of rain. (Don't know if it leaks.)

    - Well maintained, same as day one out of dealership. (I never change oil on it.)

    - Come drive it away. (I live on a hill.)

    Add more if you know of some.

    add more of what?

    you have this car?

    I'd say it's not in driving condition if it is literally what you are saying

    No, I am not selling a car. I was trying to be humorous.

    I did a bad job.

    Funny that this topic came up as I recently looked at a 308GTSQV with 30000kms on it that has been parked in a garage for 7 years....the car was in pristine condition...inside and out it was imaculate....but mechanically it didnt have any water in the radiator and there were mouse droppings in the engine bay and god knows what else...the seller was trying to point out how beautiful the condition of his car was..but didnt seem to understand that he was looking at a $7-10k service bill to get it back to tip shape..

    Rizzo he was asking 80-85K....a bit more and we're in 328 money...it was just a waste to see a car so beautiful not being driven for that length of time...

    Good one. I have actually seen this in several ads:

    "Ran well when parked."

    Ran well when parked, eh? It's not like my car. Mine has a lot of miles on it. Trouble is, it has more miles vertically than horizontally. It's always on a lift. My dad used to own it before me. I had a bad relationship with my dad. We used to play tag and he'd drive. Those games never ended up well.

    Who's next. . .

    a little off topic. But what I have seen a lot in my search for a car is "pristine" or "immaculate" except this, and this, and that.

    Some guy on eBay *swore* than a Bentley ran well 4 years ago when he last started it. I asked him to start it up "today"... never heard from him again.
