This is how to advertise a car on DoneDeal.

Marlow

I have no affiliation, nor know the car or the owner, but fair dues to him.

At shows, I've seen them used once or twice. It's so you can keep the window partially open, but nobody can stick their hand in. It sort ended up as a trend/gimmick.

But planting creepers in the door pockets is a nice touch, too.

Dunno about the breadvan reference- we always referred to it as the mini-hearse.

LOL! I thought it was a cheap stab at a window net like they use in NASCAR!

Plastic guards that mean you can leave windows open and a flow of air into the vehicle - most commonly used to keep cars ventilated for dogs in the back without the dog being able to escape

Such a good advert, love it. watched it several times. I'm pretty sure he was/is a boardie

Marlow

16 hours and we're nearly at 20k hits on the DD ad. Impressive.

Marlow

He's added a bit to the ad:

*** Please Note: There is a 1990 Chanel handbag on ebay for €800. Why I hear you ask? Because it's hard to come by these days... A little like this super class Polo i hear you say.

*** Please note again: This car'll hold a lot more groceries than a Chanel handbag and that is reflected in the price.

It's not, he's a good mate of mine. Although donedeal contacted him and offered 5 free ad placements and some goodies like donedeal tshirts etc.
