DA purchase car ‘valeting service’. Imagine that! Whatever next

[NOACROSS 414]

Just looking through Dealer Auction, and I notice this comment at the bottom of one listing.  How nice of them! I’m thinking a £25 valet for £99 or am I being cynical? (Moi?) And it’s bound to get dirty on the way home :

 

‘We do offer a full valeting service on our cars before collection at an optional cost of £99. Please let me know if you would like to have this done as we will need to book it in with our valeting team. Cars need to be collected within 3 working days, anything after this will incur a storage fee of £60 + VAT a day. Unless otherwise agreed’

Ha yes. 

Reminds me of an auctioneer who used to say ‘what do you want me to do? Sell it for you and post the profit through your letterbox gentleman?’

  Brill. In the style of Monty Python’s Life of Brian? Are there any women here? No...no.  

Any one else got any auctioneer classic lines?
