I pretty much agre with what you wrote.  I was thinking of Iranian-English
but not certain of this - what's your interpretation? The car is rust-free
and v. clean but when you factor in the "little things" involved in making
it mechanically perfect and cosmetically "concours" I figure a fair price
would be somewhere in the range of $15 to $20 K.  Biggest wildcard holding
back the bidding might be the lack of a sunroof, although having PW makes
that less of a necessity.

Yeah, sounds like an honest seller.  When was the last time you saw
someone selling an old car admit that the A/C is just plain broken,
instead of "needs a charge"?

I like that the stereo, though not original, is a newer Becker rather
than a Sony or some such with lots of cheesy light-up graphics and
fiddly little buttons.  Classy.

The spelling and grammar errors are consistent with a particular group
of non-native speakers of English.  I wouldn't be too hard on him.
