You can't - it's not an "offer" in law but an "invitation to treat" such that he can reject your offer:
From a law website...
A simple statement of the price of goods or land will not constitute an offer.
This can be shown from the facts in HARVEY v FACEY [1893] AC 552 PC.
Harvey telegraphs Facey: 'Will you sell me Bumper Hall Pen? Telegraph
lowest cash price.' Facey replies by telegram: 'Lowest cash price
for Bumper Hall Pen, £900.' Harvey sent a second telegram: 'We
agree to buy Bumper Hall Pen at £900 asked by you.' It was held that
Facey's telegram was not an offer but merely a statement of the
price.

It's a scam I e-mailed him see reply below.
Hello there,
The 2006 ASTON MARTIN VANTAGE is still available for 38.500 Gbp. It's in
excellent overall condition, accident free, no scratches. It's also free of
any bank liabilities. I moved to Canada recently and the car is here with me
as well, but the transport back is already set. The car is still registered
in the UK. I signed with a local transport company to use their services.
They will also offer us third party protection. How it works: they secure
your money in their trustee bank account held in the UK until you receive
and inspect the merchandise. I signed for a 5-day inspection period. In this
period you can test the car and if you are not pleased with it, your money
will be returned to your account and they will deliver it back to me, free
of charge for you, but I am 100% confident that you will be pleased with the
car. They are also specialized in vehicle transactions and will provide full
needed logistic and legal support upon our deal. The car is on their
warehouse already. I know that the scenario may seem strange but I can
assure that this is a genuine sale. I hope you understand and I am waiting
for your reply if you decide to go forward.
Thank you,
Graham
