And they seem to think that a SWB 912 is identical to a LWB 911. Oh and they can't spell infinitely either.

At least they did not write the whole advert in capital letters as so many do.

"May be one of the best cars movie science ever made"

It may be a cryptic crossword clue for " one of the best car movie scenes ever made"

Or the whole ad is a computer translation of a voice message.....

That car looks very nice stuart, seems to have been for sale for a little while, quite surprised it hasn't been snapped up. Maybe the curse of ebay has put people off?
