buying car abroad
been looking at buying a car from germany (private sale)
the owner is using a firm to deal with it, basically.....
i pay in full,
they ship it to my door,
i get 48 hours to accept or decline (if i accept its mine there and then, if not they will refund me full amount and they take car back)
the company is TRANS-AUTO EUROPE, how can i find out how legit they are
all is what i have found out is a address for them
anyone used them? or know how i could go about finding more out about them? or how i could pay but have a bit of security (they want a bank transfer)
thanks

scam?
had a similar deal but was a different company. i pay them and then they ship the car ,
but i insisted on coming to view the said car at there premises , which they wouldnt let me do . kept fobbing me off with different excuses .
personally if you cant view it and take it from there premises you need to ask ya self how legit they are

That sounds well ropey! I can't see how they would ship the car all the way over to you, for you to say 'no thanks' they then have to ship it back and give you a full refund? 
Struggling to see how that isn't a scam tbh.
