Why do people put "excellent" condition, when it so clearly isn't.

This is a nice car, local to me and looked after by the people who maintain my spec c
I've seen it a few times, if i didn't have my spec c I'd be having this.

Couldn't agree more.... that's why my
STANDARD 2ltr JDM engine produces 475ftlb of it without any grumbling.
It also hasn't got an oil thirst problem. I don't want to rub salt in the wounds, but it does **** me off that I don't have to touch the oil between services.
