hmmm suspicious.

If it looks too good to be true. Mobile number cars way underpriced. Anyone heard of these guys??

Must be a catch surely.

[frosted]

No catch , why dont you go there with cash ?

[Jakg]

Email only ads, and if you look at the Passat its outside a "Bilsbarrow Car Sales", which is in Lancashire!

Pictures are really low res though. But they do give an address. Maybe somebody local could have a look.
Prices are a bit too low

I'll bet there is!

[chrisxr2]

On autotrader as well, not that that counts for much nowadays.

I'd geuss there all stolen from AutoTrader or similar - several of them are blatently private sellers cars (i.e. the red BMW)

Whois says the owner of the site is "Nerijus Mazintas", registered on the 25-October-2010... suspicious? No...

Does seem slightly odd that they have a showroom - yet all the photos are showing cars in different locations (at very good prices!)

Anyone looked on 'street view' yet?

There in an industrial unit there, but doesn't look like the sort of place you'd try to sell cars from.

Streetview doesn't index that street, though...

"Four years in prison for gang who defrauded the public by wiping 6½ million miles from 83 cars


Brent & Harrow Trading Standards Service have smashed a large scale car clocking operation in North West London.

On Monday 17th December 2007 at Harrow Crown Court, Aidas Auksutis (29) of Crest Road NW2, Nerijus Mazintas (26) of Hillcrest Garden, NW2 and Edgaras Aukstuis (23) of Dollis Hill Avenue, NW2, all pleaded guilty to conspiracy to defraud."

I wonder...

Ummm just tried myself - convenient that street view doesnt cover it - something about an auto salvage yard noted though.

Street view doesn't cover that road. Isn't that handy?

[sh010272]

No street view and I agree with all the other comments, I would look elsewhere

Was just browsing on autotrader, and the coopper s 2k cheaper than anything else with close to similar mileage did arouse suspicion.

[Jakg]

Try calling the company opposite to see if they've ever heard of them - or if they actually have any of these cars...

Yep, it's probably less than half the actual value.

[sn00per]

a 57 plate Focus with 28k for £1400....

[Rollcage]

Cant think these are clocked motors, there really isn't the margin in them at these prices, so must be some sort of other scam . The cars exist as the plates check out, but almost certainly not owned by our chum Mr Mazintas!
