In reply to my qestion.
Item: AUDI A3 1.6 SPORT SILVER - 1 Years MOT (200015867231)
This message was sent while the listing was active.
mr_shotter is the seller.
Hi, i can assure nothing illegal has been done to the car, i had the endgine changed as the previous one had a problem. The new engine was taken from a used a3 and has covered only 72,000 milesn therefore i had a audi specialist update the milage meter. Thanks

The most he's done to it is wash it and re-MOT it.
Oh, and clock it, of course

Well done SC008Y. Cant belive he actually bought it off Ebay, then readvertised it with the lower mileage. What a scumbag. Hes got some neck.
Proby.

Remember this, well he is back. He has just won item number 280023533585, which is a high mileage car. Will be interesting to see if it appears on ebay with lower miles soon.

Keep us informed.
We'll bombard him with emails again
Wonder if he'll have a new engine fitted like the last one ?
