    Very rough in places, but only $CDN 3,500. I don't know if, by "registered", the seller means that it is licensed and currently on the road, or what. His last sentence in the ad is a bit confusing, as if he'd had a few too many drinks of an alcoholic nature when writing the ad.

    As usual, pasting an image's URL doesn't work for me anymore. Don't know why.

    Thanks, Professor! For some reason the steps I always used in the past to post photos never works for me anymore:

    1) Copy image address from source (Kijiji in this case)
    2) Use picture icon above to paste image address
    3) Photo shows up in the thread I just created
    4) But when I post it, the image doesn't show up

    In the past, if I opened the photo in a new tab and then copied the image address, then pasted into the thread, this worked. But no more.

    I'm wondering if it's some weird side-effect from using Chrome as my browser.

    I always just right click on the photo that I want, click COPY, then PASTE it directly into my message. Much easier for me.

    More likely Kijiji started blocking direct linking to images. The code behind your attempted image post indicates it's on there end. Glad Professor got you going!

    If you look at all of the crap on the front seat floor…it appears that this is not part of a “collection” but simply someone’s daily driver…or they are living in it…

    Someone must have tipped them off that they would get large dollars if they strapped a surfboard on the top! Surprisingly, no Griswold references
