Is it me or is this a very cheap 6.0 VXR in the classifieds?

[After_Shock]

Just spotted this and also on the trader:

Seems very cheap for what it is and makes the CV8's around it look very expensive!

If it is that car those shots were taken before he put the exhaust on!!!!
Say`s at the top it`s a 5.7 engine.

Strange, I've been keeping an eye on the trader etc recently and I'm sure that same car was advertised for a lot more than 14k up until today...

Looks too good to be true almost..

Ad is a bit misleading. It says it's a 2005 so must be a VZ and therefore 6.0L. Looking at the pics it looks like a VZ.

Same car would be asking $55-60K here (£25-30K)

Scam advert.

[le sarthe]

Its got the profile of a scam - but easy check - the ad says recently fitted wortec stuff by MOnkfish.

Call Roger and ask - he at least (if they have) worked on this car and can contact the owner and let them know it is being used in a scam advert as the reg is on display.

He will claim he is out of the country and ask for a deposit to secure the car,(or if he is really taking the mick he asks for full payment and will arrange delivery) thats the last you will hear from him.
