    This is ludicrous,no one flies in to buy a £1200 car.

    iIt is probabably dodgy but when I was over in Ireland I was told several times how expensive cars were over there compared to hear. One of the taxi drivers had just imported a BMW. So its not completely far fetched that they want to take a car back to Ireland.

    I have (twice - both cars were less than £1000) . Although I didnt fly in I got the overnight bus from Belfast to the south of England .
    Car in NI are more expensive than mainland UK and cars in ROI are even more expensive .

    Still think this ones a scam though .

    I have too. Mine was under a £800. Flight was £24 and the car was exactly what I wanted and had been looking for. It cost me £55 to drive back. Only car similar near me was nearly twice the price and had twice the mileage.

    That's what happens when you live somewhere remote
