Default Scam??

Thinking of buying the missus a mk4 glf, looking to spend around 1500, might then by meslef a gt tdi!!

Anyway, see this for sale;



















Looks a nice clean car, was on autotrader for £750

Tried ringing but no answer, but in the add it said if out of office hours then email, so i did and got this response;

Hello,

I still got the VW GOLF 1.9 TDi MATCH 2003 MOT BLACK IMMACULATE WMD for sale. The car is in excellent condition, garage kept and accident
free. The mileage is real and I never had any problems with the engine. The car looks and works just perfect. I
bought it from UK and it is still registered here. We live in the Northern part of United Kingdom, in a beautiful
sea-side city called Thurso.
We are a nice couple of pensioners (I have 64 and my beloved wife is 63 years old) and don't use the car so
often. We love to spend our time on the road but now we use to travel by plane, so a car is no more useful for
us. Also we sold our house and bought a big farm here in Thurso. If you are really interested we are ready to
make a trip to England and meet you personally. You can take the car for a test-drive and any kind of inspection.
Please tell us where do you live? I am sure that we will find a nice city in England to arrange a meeting, a
region acceptable for us and for you in the same time. We have the faith that this can be a good deal!

The last price it is : 750GBP

P.S. I appreciate if we can continue our conversation by e-mail. The mobile signal is poor here, we have to walk
over 2 miles for a good phone call.

Thank you

Surely it has to be a scam???
