And following up with a complaint about the statement that the car is
sold "as is" - which I assume is the USian equivalent of the UK "as
seen", and, if so, only applies if the vehicle is being sold to someone
who has seen it in the flesh. Otherwise, this is sale by description,
and the seller is liable for any inaccuracies in that description. (Mind
you, given all the "appears to be" statements, the seller may well have
covered himself there...) This is supposed to be an auction, not an
advertisement.
