Sorry for the hijack but the story reminds me of a RWD Regal I bought off a fat lady one time years ago for a few hundred bucks...great shape, good runner and I knew I could flip it for way more.. The fat lady waved at me as I drove away feeling great about how good a deal it was, then I began to smell a strangely familiar odour...it didn't take long before I realized what it was!. A couple days later a buddy asked me if I had anything he could buy for a cheap winter beater so I sold him the car way less than I was planning on and told him the truth that he'd need to sanitize and air-freshen it well because it smelled like female private parts.. Next time I ran into him he told me the car was great also he'd never cleaned it and kept the smell on purpose!
.
True story, seriously and the complete opposite from that new car smell!.
