Big savings on a small car!
LePetit 007sx, 2-seater
Now only €2 995!
Michel was considering buying a second-hand car, but when he saw this ad in the Sunday paper he went to the car dealer that very afternoon.
But when he got there he was disappointed. The salesman said that all the 007sx's were "sold out" and that it could be "months" before any were available again. Instead the car salesman tried to pressure Michel into buying a "Grossiz", a little bit bigger car with a higher price: €3 995.
