I know the owner of the car in the pictures and the plate.
The photos are taken at Aberdeen harbour.
I'll make him aware of things.

This one is not a scam! I know the seller, and have been to see it with a mate who is thinking of buying it.

I know! I don't know what that's all about, his price also changed to £8000 without out his knowledge, as if his add was being hacked. But I can assure you it's genuine. I have been to a couple of meets with him and like I said have been to look at it. Maybe he should take it off and start again. I will let him know about this thread.

Does sound like his advert was hacked. Not sure how that could happen - serious AT security problem if it has.

He needs to get that pic removed asap, it's giving all the wrong impressions.

Still silly cheap if the car is straight and an 04.

Wouldn't an 04 be a Mk2?

I have just text him, he says that autotrader have been in touch about it. Does look like something dodgy has happened. It is a mk one and an 04 as far im aware. Must be one of the last of them. It's a lovely example nowt wrong with it.

I wasn't calling into question your mate or his car, more that some scumbag was using it as the basis of a scam.

Looks a peach smile

My mistake.
I had a 54 plate, september 2004 Mk2 Tuscan.

And that WAS one of the first Mk2's.
