    joined up two days ago, what looks like a very good deal...... can only mean one thing! somebody is going to end up 3k out of pocket and without a car when the plod take it off them
  • preddy much what I thought.

    Or you get there nd find there is no engine under the bonet...
  • classified listing, so no ebay purchase have to contact seller. another odd thing its location is stated london only, if it were a trader/dealer would give more accurate details, even a private seller would describe it better rather than v5 books mots new tax new mot. and for a 56 plate motor like that it only has ONE SET OF KEYS?

    Not that unusual if the previous owner was a lease or rental co.

    still looks too good to be true though, a car like this anyone would be boasting how good it is to try and sell it and state reasons for the low mark up

    I's a scam, see them on Autotrader and Gumtree all the time, the clue is email the 'seller' not ask a question through ebay.
    They will have used someone else's photo.

    .


    it's a classified ad. They all say 'email the seller' and the ask a question bit is down at the bottom.
