Only 1 previous owner (not counting a couple of unsuccessful test drives)
Mid-age model, with some signs of wear and neglect, but with plenty of miles left.
Unique details, just needs some TLC to restore him into a real keeper.

Fwiw, that's better than most of the one's I've ever read. I can't say as to whether or not I would respond to it (not being in that mindframe these days), but it did and would make me smile to read it, and that is a value of it's own. -H...

ROFL!

By the way, do you want to change "used" to "pre-owned"? ;)

Prospective buyers may also want to know if you come with an extended warranty.

Oh no, I've been Used. That is what made me think of this in the first place.

Also, I am well beyond my warranty.

However I have been updated with a supercharged-fuel-injector (My A.D.D. meds) Which is one of those "Unique Details".

This is a cute ad.

I am an analyst by personality and profession and I don't want to come down too negatively, but I think you can spin this to sound a lot better. You're a really nice guy with much worth and value - too much to be comparing yourself to a used car.
