As per the title the advert is just to *think large dark skinned fella with phone* but I truly wish this was a genuine..

There is a part of my character what would love that, the part that ignores potential costs and other normal sanity related items.

Erm, in what way is this dodgy?

An old fast Jag nearly 80k miles for £3.5k? You think it should be a lot more expensive?

Odd car to scam, rare and difficult to get a true value. Looks o.k to me, would be easy enough to find out, have you tried contact them?

Maybe my radar is off then, it just seemed like a piss poor advert for a very unique car, only has the one picture which is not that good and if truth be told I would have thought it would be more.

Hey folks I am happy to be wrong here and I am in Cambridge tomorrow - if anyone has any insight into this conversion etc I would be happy to hear it as I am in the market for something akin to this.

Cheers

Well I have emailed the seller and asked if they have any more information, history and pictures etc and said I will be in the area tomorrow so can/will go and take a look.

Just the very poor English and amateurish advert rings warning bells.

We shall see!
