Usually refers to f&$@ers who come see your car and have no intention of buying it or offering you anywhere near your asking price.

someone that has no real interest or intent to buy. They just turn up walk around the car & "kick the tyres" be a general pan in the arse & waste the sellers time. Also known as a "test pilot".

Also go be these aliases : dimwits, drongos (see flaming drongos), oxygen thieves, nongs, halfwits, clowns (see arse clowns) neverdowells, riff raff, nutbags, time magnets, empty vessels, bevans/bogans, flanno's, i-diots, dipsh*ts, braindead, prawns & hopeless jokes, last car was usually a 10yr old commodore or excel and was faster than a GTHO 👍 👍 😂

Or it could refere to the wankers that feel the need to post comments in the listing about cost/condition/engine size/who built the engine and have absolutly no intentions of purchasing or making a genuine offer on the item.

not to upset people but what is wrong with offering you alot less then the asking price...especially if the price has been reduced a few times over the period of the post. 99% of the time it will be no but the 1% it is yes then you get a bargin. Or it can be used to start the barginning process.. give a counter offer.
In the long run a car is only worth what you can get for it not how much money you spent on it, what the motor cost you or the paint job etc.

Nothing wrong with offering less, but said persons usually make insulting offers.

All of the above but another way to put it is to say they are people who know nothing about cars so they kick the tyres whilst walking around the vehicle and think to themselve " well the tyres didn't fall off with a light tap of my foot so it must be a good car"
