Hi,,
Was looking st a contemporary on ebay..just ended and was up at £5495 or there abouts...check this out... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...=STRK:MEWAX:IT. It was a bit too steep for me and then i saw this today. http://www.uk-cars-for-sale.com/5889...ER/75.car4sale.
Looks like the same car to me. Well same mileage and registration kinda clinches it. SO.....something not write right somewhere or theres a bargain to be had???
What do you think???

Different location, my guess is that the Gumtree listing is a scam....

Just what i thought...go figure, even using the same photos...

I would never buy a car from London anyway, so it MUST be a scam!

Why would you say that? Not all Londoners are mafia dons or Arthur Daley.

I think GT meant that London cars may have spent their lives as stop and go and never had a descent run..
