Default Car Advertising - Pet Hates

Been doing the usual trawling of the internet for 'cars I like the idea of buying but probably never will' tonight and it's highlighted something I've noticed before but which is increasing almost weekly. I wonder if any of you have come across it too?

The buyer advertises the car for sale/swap, but elsewhere in the advert mentions the reason for selling said car is because a) Have bought another car and can't afford to keep 2 b) Mrs is having a baby or c) It's too powerful for her. Fair enough.

But then they go on to say 'swap for WRX, RS, Turbo, WHY something fast!'

Isn't that just putting them back at square one?

If they can't even type 10 lines on a screen without contradicting themselves then there is no chance I'm buying a car from them! They'd be as well saying;

'I've ragged the shit out of this one and can't afford to fix everything I've broken, but maybe one of you tossers will give me a swap for your pride and joy so I can rag that too?'

I also hate people who can't spell the name of the car they're trying to sell and especially people who can't even be arsed washing it or removing rubbish before they take pictures!!!

Anyone else?
