Andrew: Don't be so silly! Of course, I am totally in tune with the spirit of Punaweb, whatever the hell that is. I'm like totally down with the Punagroove, my boy.
As for the car, the rule is this: Let the buyer beware. John's Land Rover just needs a part and getting this part is more trouble to John than he would like to deal with. So, he can sell his vehicle to a willing buyer, who can ask as many questions as they would like. Since it is an upscale car, he can market it in an upscale area. John can disclose his reasons for selling, if asked (a part is subject to recall). In fact, he has, in full view of the entire world!
In the meantime, he has performed an important public service by reminding us not to buy cars that cannot easily be serviced on island.
And I have performed an important public service by reminding people of how easy it is to presume a meaning that was never intended.
