Makes you wonder dont it, i wonder if they were the pictures from when the car was brand new? he does provide a mobile number which is a good sign as these scammers only usually put up an email.

ive seen one for sale at £19.995, but it was an early one, with over 30K miles on it. if that sells with those miles, for that price, its very cheap.

Deffo sounds like a scam

Even though he types like a complete retardation, I'm not sure its a scam to be honest. But, I reckon there are two different reasons he's selling it... firstly, he's a chav with cash (possibly made from dodgy business..) and he genuinely has the folding to go and buy an M3 once this sells. Secondly, he bought it with a huge loan and his bank account is absolutely screaming every month when the payment leaves and he's had enough of it after a year of owning the car.

Either way, if the car is genuine and the final bid price stands, I reckon it was at least 2,500-3000 under priced.


Cheers,
Grant
