how so? looks fine to me. do you know the car or something?

[350Wedge]

Yeh definite scam, asking for £4000 and asking to contact via a separate e mail. See them all the time.

Get it reported

[FactoryPilot]

If you have any experience of ebay accounts being hijacked, you know what to look for. 'Don't email me through ebay, email direct...blah blah blah'

But of course, feel free to have a bid if you like.

Buy it now for £4k, it has to be worth at least double that if not triple.....

[GadgeS3C]

Does seem an odd advert - no location in the UK for example. Is it an auction or is it £4,000? If it's £4k then it's a very, very cheap Vixen from that pic.

[spitfire4v8]

ah I see, good points. I didn't realise vixens were fetching 8-12k though! crikey.

Having bought this car and brought it home last wednesday I was surprised to see it back on e bay last night. I reported it and this morning it was gone. Now it's back with a different seller and £500.00 cheaper. They have lifted the photo and text directly from the original insertion. Does make you wonder if they ever get a "bite".
