I emailed a seller that was selling a MK4 Golf GTI for a stupidly low price just to see what would happen and the reply I got was.
"I'm a nurse who has just moved to Germany and as a result I no longer need the car so it will be sold at that price as I need a quick sale, the car is here with me and when the payment has cleared the car will be shipped according to the details you provide"
I sent a email back saying that through work I visited Germany several times a month so I would be more than happy to go to visit her and view the car and if I bought it drive it to the coast and get the ferry home.
Funnily enough that was the last I ever hear'd
