That's just Facebook auto filling on a listing. Same with kilometres and the like. FB engineers must give zero shits about localisation customisations.

Nor do I, but it is where a lot of cars get advertised now and so why I'm on it. A lot of decent/realistically priced stuff to (as well as the silly priced). Free to list and a wide audience. Also much easier to communicate with sellers over real time chat than eBay.

Guess if you are intent on a Mini you have to cover everywhere. Not much point looking in newsagent's windows these days, I know.

I find facebook market place worse than ebay and ebay is now not worth a shit. I am giving classic car weekly a try as a lot of older people don't do the internet and they do tend to be the ones with money.

Ebay is largely populated by dreamers who have no intention of buying anything other than new socks, pants and Chinese trainers and thought they might waste some more of their (and other people's time) asking stupid questions about shit they have no intention of buying.

It isn't just cars, it applies to rare old records, mint Dinky toys and valuable books if my own experience is anything to go by.

I've sacked the whole thing off - it is just a parade of cunts.

They aren't exactly the prettiest of looking conversions as they look like they are bending in the middle but the rear end is quite nice

Tart it up, make it run & road legal then sell it at a loss.
