If nothing else it’s a fraudulent description for the next owner which is a real shame.
Hi all, I've submitted a Police report on the basis of his behaviour and attempted alleged extortion or misrepresentation.
I genuinely appreciate all the help and support here, but I would also that everyone refrains from contacting the seller or marketplace further on this subject just 'in case' as I am also a believer in karma in the end.
I think it has been important to give the vehicle details as it is being misrepresented in the sale at present in the hope that a future 'buyer beware' or owner is aware.

To all those questioning why the buyer would bother - here it is.
Buys at £4200, tries to get a further £1000 back, selling at over 6 grand with dodgy info in the ad.
Potential profit - nearly 3 grand, if the OP had caved on him.
Scumbag........complete and utter scumbag.

I was happy to let it go to a genuine buyer, badly burnt on this but when you just want it moved on because its surplus to requirements.

Dealing with people like that is like the old saying about playing chess against a pigeon - it doesn’t matter what you do, they’ll knock all the pieces over, crap on the board and then fly off.

This is the problem with selling a car, too many people trying to buy cars cheap and sell on for a profit. A lot of these people have zero morals, and as we have seen try and intimidate the owner to believe there is something wrong with the car they have just sold and to give them some money to make them go away.What a complete and utter cocksocket.

This is why you get so many "Best offer boss", "Best Price" and offer of half the asking price "in hand cash today" when selling a car. They want to persuade you to virtually give the car away which they then sell on for a profit.
Just had a look at his photos on Facebook, what an absolute throbber.
