I think the only dimwit is someone who's got themselves so worked up over a little mistake in an advert.
80% of your posts are total tripe, as they are mostly replies to sh1te posts created by the morons that, unfortunately this forum attracts.

I thought the 16.4 stood for 16 cylinders, 4 turbos.

Does anyone really care?

If you are in the market for a car like that, I suspect you don't really care about the description...you go view the car.
Or more likely, get your 'man' to go view it on your behalf.
It's not like and likely owners don't know what they are spending £1.2M on, now is it?

Might be just me but lets say I was spending the same on a house I'd like to know how many rooms I'm get including bedrooms and how many acres of land and number of garages, size of driveway with parking for what number of parking spaces etc, etc... so a full description of the property is a must.

If you spending that amount on a car you'd expect a description and the details to be correct which this advert fails on all levels.
