Hello, are you interested in my acrua?
Yes are there any problems with it?
Nope, only high mileage but I've changed the oil and kept up with maintenance throughout the last 17 years. 
Ok great. Do you still have the all the maintence records? Whats the lowest you can go? I'm on a bit of a budget.
I do not...I have all the maintence records from the past 5 years, the previous 12 were lost in a flood. ( The car was not present during the flood) - I do have 4 brand new tires on it as well...If you could come pick it up from me, instead of meeting in the middle I can knock off $300 from the price.
Ok that is quite fair and acceptable. Please make me an offer.
