Believe it or not I've never had a bad experience with a car salesman so I may be a little more trusting than others. That said, while we can pick apart the car with the vast knowledge present on this board, I for one have never seen a more thorough and picture rich presentation of an Opel on eBay. That is what led me to post the link here.
I think use of the term "unmolested" is at the root of the debate since most posts here have been focused on showing the car is in fact not "unmolested" (does that make it molested
)? So, while a better choice of words could have been used, the seller went to great lengths to document the car in pictures IMHO which an unscrupulous salesmen would not do.
Finally, I think only a reputable company with a reputation worth preserving would come to the board and try to defend that ad. What other motivation is there? Since "69adamopel" joined this forum back in November, according to his profile, it would appear he was on the forum before this issue erupted.
