Male car owners can cut costs with cheap car insurance once they buy a car but simply shaving could increase how much they get for their car when they sell it on, according to one auction site.A survey conducted by eBay revealed that certain features will turn off buyers, knocking valuable pounds of the second hand car's price.The least desirable feature in a seller was discovered to be a moustache, with 92 per cent of people reporting that it was off-putting.Nearly two thirds of potential buyers said if the seller was wearing gold jewellery they would be deterred from buying a car and 54 per cent said visible tattoos would put them off.On the other hand, certain phrases could help convince a buyer about the car.Potential buyers look out for phrases such as "non-smoking owner, no pets", "used as a second car", and "one lady owner".
