A few dings (used car ad)

I got a kick out of this car for sale on Autotrader....



AT Car ID: AT-11063866

Seller's Description and Comments

We have determined that the mileage represented on this vehicle is accurate. There are no reported manufacturer defects on this vehicle. Not only is the outside clean, the inside is smoke-free. Like many used vehicles, this one has a few door dings, giving this quality vehicle its own character. The vehicle's transmission is smooth with no pings or worrisome noises. Starts fast and runs flawlessly with smooth acceleration. Very responsive and a joy to drive with great styling and the high tech gadgets for a low cost of ownership. Comfortable, great gas mileage, great in the rain with a clean and functional interior. If you are tired of the back and forth games most dealers play, then pick up the phone and let us show you how we do things differently......

A few door dings and one big ding in the front.
Great gas mileage? Like 12 maybe?
