Hi Jim £100 cash is on it's way.

As im having a loan through work they need info, can you provide:-
Name and address
Car details e.g make and model, first registration, chasis number, cubic capacity, reg number and agreed sale price!!

They will provide a cheque in your name, obv I will have to wait untill this clears in your account before pickng the car up, sorry but they are not able to provide cash!! Should be able to send a cheque by thurs providing I have the details from you.
Hope this is ok with you?
Tom.

Can people who ring cars etc..... do anything with the info of the V5 that he's asked for??

Am i right in thinking that once the cheques cleared the moneys safe??

Call me suspicious but my policy is TNF Trust no fucker. He has decent feedback on ebay but only one transaction in the last year.

Does it sound ok or dodgy?? Think I'll ask to speak to his work before I go ahead.

Opinions thanks.
