Last week we brought you what is possibly the funniest and manliest car advert that we've ever seen. Now, a bloke in Galway is trying his luck in the same way.
“Put your legs up. Loosen your tie. Pour yourself a cool refreshing glass of whiskey and light up that favourite cigar. Your in a for a real treat…”
That’s how a new advert for an old Volvo V70 starts and its the type of banter that makes you want to read on further. The ad is currently up on Adverts.ie and the seller ‘Therobfromireland’ is looking for just €500 for his 1997 petrol estate car.
The advert reads as follows: “The first thing you will notice as you step inside the Volvo V70 is the richness of character that only comes from a car with unknown numerous owners and over 135,000 of possibly genuine miles.
“Its saturated in history that lets you know instantly that this car has seen it all and lives to tell the tale. Seats and carpets boldly state alike that they too have seen 15 years of frontline action.
“Words can not describe the many surprises that awaits the new proud owner.”
Judging by the photos, words really cannot describe what awaits you.

There's even some dead bugs thrown in for free
It’s a hilarious read and well worth five minutes of your time. The car was only put up on the site at the weekend, so we’re sure ‘Therobfromireland’ has already been inundated with perspective buyers, or just people who found the ad as funny as we did.
Check the ad out for yourself over here.
