I agree - they should rather sell their jewellery such as engagement and wedding rings before the car has to go.

adverts for cars are full of stock phrases. Baby forces sale is just a convenience. It beats "I'm flogging it before it finally blows
up". It makes the sale seem more legitimate. Remember, not everything you read is true.
Or perhaps they genuinely need the money and all the mother's stuff added together isn't worth as much as the spare car.

An ideal "kids car" I would have thought.
Half a yard of sand in the back; bucket & spade; they'd play for hours.
Obviously there are some safety issues, but a wire netting roof should sort that.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

That is no excuse. I told my missus shed have to sell stuff before my car went as I am the only driver of the house. If i had no money to finish it
id let it sit there til i did (which has kinda happened but back on it now). Not sell it cos i had a baby.

"cant you see you fool"
"hope your prepared to throw some money at it"
"so lots of parking dents" sorry
"or else bits will fall off"
"just want the money pit off my driveway"
"boss has given me a reliable car as he was sick of me beieng late for work"

"no test pilots"
when translated, The owner/driver is a cock.
