i think you will find that some people opt to put all the things in the title so when someone searches any other above tags in ebay it will pull the ad up and display it. It in "some" cases is to get maximum exposure for your ad

I think it's all tongue in cheek. I can almost see the seller chuckling at all the fuss.

Nope! Having just spoken to the seller I can confirm he is under the impression it's a four door 22b! His justification is that that's what the hpi will show and what the log book shows. When I tried to enlighten him he got a little annoyed and said he was sick of people taking the p!ss. I told him my log book shows a WR1 but my car is a JDM STI, he wasn't having any of it so I gave up and wished him good luck with the sale.
he's a grade a muppet so fill your boots lads.

Guy's not worth the trouble.

But if his logbook for some reason DOES say 22B, then someone else will buy it thinking that's what they have.

Logbooks not to be trusted, they are printed by muppets.

He told me to go and do some research and I would find out what he did! The cheeky scallywag! The funny thing was his conviction and annoyance at everyone telling him he was wrong.

No, no threat. He meant do the hpi check and it would show up as a 22b. I told him I didn't need to do a hpi check and he got a little emotional.

He couldn't even put the graphics on straight. I think he is fully aware that his car is not a 22B. Why else would he state that the 2 door sells for over 22k but his 4 door is even rarer then start the bidding at £99. Con man and not to bright either.
