The ad was on here for many months, same name, same area and the car was £2K-£3K less than all others when I bought mine.

It was on vx220 that that one was a damaged repairable as well.

I guess it puts into perspective the bandwidth PH uses, if that when a link to another forum gets posted, we kill it!

I remember that advert, was a guy called Imran. I was looking to buy a VXT at the time and was surprised that the VXT in question hadn't sold, apparently had done 7kmiles on a 2003 03 plate and was up for £13.5k, at least £1.5k below the general market price at the time which was back in mid April this year.
I never looked at the car as I was suspicious from the start that it had been for sale for a long time prior to mid April.

yes

No luck here either...I bookmarked this at lunch as I figured I'd get sh't if I read through the whole thread, and now nothing... frown

Edit: Looks like the whole forum's gone for a swift half...

The guy says he's sold it and that the chap didn't have the internet. If that is true isn't Imran guilty of deception?

I seem to recal one of the VX guys getting nicked for speeding after posting the video, is an admission of guilt on the web enought to get the BiB involved?

I'd think someone should tip off the local plod/trading standards about the garage in question. If they are doing this kind of stuff I doubt they are far away from being a chop shop...

I suspect the bib would be more intrested if it was a speeding offence rather than fraud

Well, it's looking like vx22.org.uk might have used all this months bandwith on good old Imran!

That guy is never going to sell a car again on the net ever. Did he actually sell the vx in the end to someone without the net or was he just making it up?
