This DoneDeal ad from Cork is one of the funniest we’ve ever seen

Are you looking to buy a VW transit van in the South of the country, or just looking for a laugh? Then look no further...

Are you looking to buy a VW transit van in the South of the country, or just looking for a laugh? Then look no further…

We’ve featured quite a few DoneDeal adverts in the past and recently some lad in Mayo used his bathroom to sell some car parts, but this time around we’ve got an epic ad from a seller in Cork called Padraic.

Padraic is currently trying to flog his ’96 Volkswagen Transporter for around €650 and while he wants you to make an offer he doesn’t want anyone “taking the piss”.

Here’s what add says over on DoneDeal: “She’s in great running order but ‘The Man’ says I need some paperwork to put her on the road. She needs a bit of love to get her through the DOE but I may as well be looking at a cow’s arse as trying to fix her myself and I haven’t a notion of paying a mechanic to do it.

“The last owner stuck four alloys off a Landrover on it for some mad reason, suppose he though it would make her go faster or something. I don’t get it myself, each to their own I suppose. The inside in the back is painted with anti-bacterial paint (whatever that is). Handy if you want to convert it to an ambulance or transport organs.

“Anyway give me a shout. Make some kind of offer but don’t take the piss. I’m saving up for an iPad with all the bells and whistles so could do with a few quid. The nephew had one, they’re some job in fairness.

“Offers accepted but Jaysus lads ye better be standing in front of me with a big wad of cash when ye do it.”

Brilliant… Here’s to hoping Padraic gets his iPad.
