Cheap X-Type?

[Swoxy]

What do you think of this?

Awful red interior. I think that would lower the price.

[Swoxy]

It's hit or miss.
I love red leather but it needs the black wood to compliment it.
If I could afford the insurance I'd be really tempted to buy that car.

Does look a bargain. I love red leather. Had it in my first (white) XJS.

Looks like a real bargain, almost too good to be true at that age and mileage.

Personally the red leather and baby-poo coloured wood isn't really me 'tho

[Shnozz]

feck me, if that is genuine, no wonder I haven't had a sniff on mine!

I am not convinced that is kosher at that price but if it is (even with the gopping interior) then theres got to be a market in buying these up, sticking an LPG conversion on and selling it those happy to pay twice the price for a car that costs them £200 less a year to run on fuel.

looks very suspicious to me

Just realised there's no phone number.
419?

It's in Merseyside... Things are getting darker by the minute

[Swoxy]

It's a scam. I emailed asking for more information and got this in return ...

Hi,
First of all i want to thank you for your interest in buying my car. The car is in perfect condition, never been involved in any accidents so it has no damages. Mostly garage kept. As i am the first owner i never put the car in a race and never drive it mad. It has a clean title and it comes with all the original keys and manuals. If you are still interested and if you want to buy the car please let me know and i will be glad to offer you more information.

Yacob,

Thank you for your reply. I am confused as the car is for sale by Connor Sigmon. Are you his lover?

Regards,

John

I received from Zachary Hildebrand ...

Connor Sigmon is my uncle and he posted the car for me. Currently my car is at one of the TNT stores, one of the best shipping/escrow services. They will confirm you by sending you an invoice with a tracking # that the car was inspected by their staff and it's as described. You will have to send the payment to them in a protected account and you will benefit of 7 days inspection period. If you won't be satisfied you will have the chance to return it and you will receive the money back. I would need your full name, address and phone number so i can put you in touch with TNT.
I'm expecting your answer shortly.
Regards,

Zachary,

Thank you for your email. I am confused. Firstly, I emailed Conner and got a reply from Yacob. I replied to Yacob and got a reply from you! Tell me the truth. Are the three of you lovers? I don't mind.

Regards,

John

Aren't there laws against bear bating these days?

Fun though isn't it.
I had great fun bating an eBay scammer about a rare Jag a few years ago. He ended up telling me the car was in Sydney, about 1 block from were my oldest mate happens to work. Small world sometimes.

Have fun.
