Has anyone come across this company - logisticfreight.co.uk

They act as agents and in this particular circumstance they are holding and selling a car for someone who's gone to the USA. The owner (in the USA) seems to have given the right vibes by email including a US land-line phone number, although I have not as yet phoned them. My gut feeling that they are on the level, but a second opinion would be appreciated.

I tried the website but doesn't load for me (Safari)

I guess they want full payment up front?, can you view the car?, is it cheap?

Unless it's mega rare I'd probably be very nervous.

Bugger, deleted my reply. But Google has 3 results, and Companies House has them as Dormant. Duedil has them as Non-Trading. Doesn't look right to me.
