That's fantastic. The first had me in fits, but this bit, being slightly car related, sealed it for me:

FFS, yeah, sounds great, the car has a couple of minor flaws which
I should point out before we continue with the transaction. Firstly,
there is a slight dent above the passenger door handle. Also, the
right rear indicator has a hairline crack. Finally, the engine has a
fist sized hole where piston number three exited the block at 14,000rpm.

Is any of this a problem or can we still go ahead with the
transaction?

gee.
