Saw this on the auction site. Looks far too cheap, and if you look at the other items for sale, they are all way underpriced. what's going on here?

Looks like a scam to me ...requesting you only contact him on a certain e-mail address. These do crop up occasionally and should be avoided at all costs.

If you look at his other items for sale, they all seem to be high end motors but way to cheap.

I think its probably a scam too........

Indeed. It seems all the cars for sale by the trader are too cheap by Half. What's the scam then?

I think he's looking for a 'Holding Deposit' then disappears?

That car has been advertised on 'autotrader' before at around the normal price range, so definitely a scam.

Check out the post code on google maps street view FY8 1QE.
Looks somewhat different to the location in the advert.
