Outrageous, sexism alive and kicking in Marseille !

What's worse, the metal jacket studs may have damaged the "exceptional" bodywork ...

No pictures of the interior or the engine? The young lady is obstructing your view of the car? She can't possibly drive safely in those shoes? Girls aren't supposed to get in on the male dominated passion for old cars with competition history? The vendor isn't supposed to appear in their own advert? It's all disgraceful on so many levels....

Missed the marque(sic) by quite a bit guys....

 ;D

1. Misuse of a wide angle lenses
2. Failure to understand concept of depth of field
3. Badly positioned for available lighting, misuse of a light card
4. Injudicious use of a French Tarte to aid selling appeal.

Perhaps she'd walked up the mountain and she was just tired? It says the car is ex-Fiorio Cesare. Really? Be a nice bit of history to it.

Theres a bonnet ornament that is going to upset that perfect balance and cornering will be impossible with no view of the apex  ;D

This is how Google translates-

'Exceptional, Cesare Fiorio former car , driver and manager in the year 70 of the Lancia team .
Fully dismounted , sanded , no punching , no chewing , truly outstanding car in a state, as well bodywork, wiring harness , brakes , hose , ready to roll into history or store pending sunny days'.

Doesn't make sense as it's a '75 Series 3 Car- Safari or Monte Carlo lookalike? unless it means that Cesare Fiorio has at some point owned it since his rallying escapades.

Not a very safety concious advert as the road pictured has no restraint barriers (armco) installed.

Does the young lady come with it and it would be interesting to know what the rules are?

I think it means Fiorio was the team manager in the 70's. Wonder if he actually owned it or just borrowed it one day to nip out and buy some fags?

There's a car in the advert...? I'm sorry I didn't notice it.
