Ad says highest bid over 110k, no reason to beleive its a fraud, its what 15% below market, may just be a motivated seller to whom 20k isn't a lot of money.

And its not like you'll buy it unseen and pay through PayPal.

No, it says "£110,000 or highest offer will secure this SLS" so it's clearly scam territory.

It's a st scam too as there's barely anyway to contact the "seller".

I'm not so sure it's a scam - unless they ask for a massive deposit sight unseen, what's the angle?

[curlie467]

Would you really need to advertise an SLS on PH, no offence to PH but surely you would just ring the dealer you got it from and see if anyone wants one, not exactly commonplace and could be sought after.

Maybe Sierra Mike is SM - Sam Michael which ties in with his Williams F1 jargon.
