It is about 1/3 market value, so that should raise suspicions.

It asks you not to use the "e-mail dealer" link on the classified page, which is also suspicious.

They provide a link which makes it looks like a Pistonheads page, but seems to go to something on "350.com", which is suspicious.

It is very cheap because they need a fast sale, which is suspicious.

There is very little detail provided on the car.

Link to dubious advert

But then again it is a Tuscan...

Would try going through the business "salopvans" - if they aren't willing to sell it through the business they are meant to be with then I'd want a decent reason why.

Go into it eyes wide open imo and thorough inspection - who knows might get a nice fixer upper project.

It's Cat D for a start.

Advert gone. Worth reporting these scams in the hope people don't part with any money.
