One odd one I see is "one owner," when the current owner bought it from the original owner.

For some reason, many second owners don't count themselves as an owner when selling the car. It's weird. There's currently a 914 in pelican classifieds like that.

My favorite is when sellers of any vehicle think dealer service records make it good.

I'm pretty sure that this is a joke poking fun at all of the silly crap that you may see in for sale ads.

You forgot "Doctor owned"

When looking to buy my 911, nearly every one I looked at from dealerships were "owned by a doctor"

Driven by elderly gentleman on weekends.
There are a lot of 60 plus guys in my club and we have not had an autocross or DE during the week that I can remember!
