Hello,

purchasing it, but first i'd like to know the following things, if its diesel orpetrol,and the
mileage, and also if it has beeninvolved inany accidents in the
past, and other features notmentioned in the ad. In your mail, please letme also know the LEASTPRICE you'll sell for.

I emailed him this back,

I had the same response to my add for my registration (on retention cert) 'TSCANR' advertised on pistonheads! he wanted to know what condition it was in and what the mileage was ::-)))

i think the scam is that they send you too much, it appears in your account, they ask you send the difference back then the funds they sent you are reclaimed by your bank as they are rejected!

(thats what i've read anyway!)
