Default WARNING: Dodgy Sprint for sale in NSW

There is a wholesaler in NSW currently selling an ED XR8 SPRINT on ebay that is a 'repairable writeoff'

No Problem- apart from the fact he will not disclose to you that it is in fact a repaiable writeoff and hasn't had a VIV also doesnt disclose the VIN.

In other words this vehicle may end up costing a few grand more than just the buy price - Please be careful!! I don't want to see someone get ripped off.

It's not by accident that these important details are being left off as i have emailed and spoken to this guy a few times and he is just out to scam someone.

It is a Poly Green 1994 model, Auto

I will post the VIN of the vehicle and specifics of the seller if mods want me to

If anyone wants the details please PM Simon.

Thanks for the heads up Simon. Its diligence like this that keeps these scammers without a sale.

BTW the dodgy dealer rang me today (gloating) telling me that he now has sold the car for $6500 and that he would sell it on the net to someone in the ford clubs for $8k easy..... we'll see.

Why would he do that??

because he's probably right.. There are still plenty of idiots in car clubs that think they're buying a good deal
