First off apologies to the person that listed this on ebay if it is a genuine ad................its way too cheap !

Sounds a bit too good to be true. 8k for a 450 chim, with 36,000 miles. Going off the pics it looks in really good condition.

If it is genuine, and i say A BIG IF, then that is a bargain for someone.

Looks fishy too me.
If you can’t spell it correctly I don’t think you should be selling it!
If I was the owner wanting it sold I think I’d choose another vender as this one seems rather weak with his or her English!

Sounds a bit suspect to me as they have a 4200 that looks decent enough for only £7k as well.

Has to be a scam, it looks immaculate and worth twice that.

That’s about half what it’s worth even in today’s depressed market.

If it seems too good to be true, then.....

Listing has been withdrawn. So, probably a scam.

The way to really suss out if its a scam, is to click on 'Sellers other items' which will probably reveal tens of other cars the vendor is supposedly selling all in different locations.

Think it was either a beginner or someone being very clever with their scam....only about 5 listings
