Questionable bargain?..

A mate said to me many moons ago, never use a company that can't spell its name correctly, (Kwik-Fit, Kwik Save etc) . Mazaratti? FFS it's spelt out for you on the boot! Scrap it.

I think that was pretty good advice, pre-internet, but now loads of businesses have gone down the path of misspelling a word to generate a unique but relevant-sounding name: Lyft, Flickr, Kustomer, etc

Love these e-bay adverts.

"Here is my car that I can't afford to fix or maintain. I have some dodgy second hand and/or Chinese rip off parts to fix it, but I have no idea if they will fit and anyhow, I do not have a penny left to pay a backstreet oil monkey to change them as the car cost more to fuel than my old Astra.

I have however, put what little money I had left into buying some daft accessories/wheels/wrap/spoilers etc* (*take your pick) and it makes me look far more wealthy than I really am when I go to the fried chicken/Mc Donalds/Subway shop etc to get my dinner in the evenings.

So take a punt, you have nothing to loos except your money and credibility".

I have just noticed that the dodgy wrap appears to have been placed over the parking sensors !

You can wrap them. The same as when you paint them it shouldnt affect the operation. Although peeling or bubbling might.
