Re: Creative Cambridge

Hilarious! I almost busted a gut laughing! As someone who worked in advertising over my career as a DP, I have to say this is pretty creative. "demise of the wealthy Spaniard" is pretty good. Interesting that they came up with "102mph". I think that someone probably thought that mph looked better than kph. I would love to see a truthful advert on this car. Phrases such as, "based on a more pedestrian Austin Seven, a company founded by Herbert Austin. Austin drove some of his cars, and attended races at Brooklands..." I guess I'll have to make up some brass plaques. Where can I get a copy of Sir Herbert's signature, or maybe Gunnar Poppe's? :-)

Re: Creative Cambridge

That's an interesting story which has been developed somewhat from an earlier Stevenage dealer's prose in August this year, when the car was up for £15,500. So more bull gives a higher price. Amazing what creative writing can produce! As for the modern Spanish plaques . . La Mans, really?

I re write: Car Dealer should had been Typical Car Salesman BULLS.......
Tony you are neither a car dealer or a car salesman?
You may have the odd car to sell from time to time like anyone of us on this forum.
You are part of the A7 fraternity and you provide a first class service to everyone.
Just look at the other salesman trying to sell the Grasshoper BOA 60.

Re: Creative Cambridge

Sounds like a case for the local Trading Standards officer!

Re: Creative Cambridge

The spelling mistake for Grasshopper was remarkably serendipitous.

I wonder what spelling mistakes might suit other variants?
