Post subject:  Taking photos

I'm guilty of this myself and if it wasn't for my wife constantly reminding me to pay attention to
everything in the view finder I probably would have done the same.

I spotted this car on PistonHeads today and whilst I don't have an opinion of the car I did smile
when I saw all the leaves under the bonnet.

I wonder if the seller ever noticed them.

hehe classic 944 'feature'; I thought something had built a nest in mine when I bought it. Cleaned em out and a few months later its full of leaves again... and this was before autumn kicked off.

It amazes me some of the poor pics I see on Pistonheads or ebay of things being sold. If someone can't be bothered to clean up their car prior to photos for adverts, then what couldn't they be bothered to do during ownership. No excuse.

I think the worst eBay ad I saw for a 944 was pictures of the car taken in the dark with the car lights on. They also put they weren't going to write an essay about the cars history and let the pictures do the 'talking'.

I PM'd the seller saying that potential buyers do want to read about the cars history and see decent pictures, preferably in daylight. I won't repeat the reply I got! :?

Here's a good one.

Don't forget to view his youtube video showing his car doing 120mph+ on the M1, his number plate can be viewed in the windscreen and his email and mobile in the advert. Local constabulary might be interested?

He claims he's spent £800 on a water based re paint but in his history he has bought 12 cans and 2.5l of cellulose paint! He's also bought a VW Passat salvage to put his 'two little angels' into!!

Also well written!!!

God help us!

Would also be very sceptical about the mileage.
