This car just sold for £17k. This must be a scam as that car was for sale for a good while but recently went.

The car was originally being sold by a bloke from Wales. The photos are in Porthcawl.
Definetly a scam.

The car has been bought by a member on P1WOC and he has notified pistonheads who had this false advert in their cars for sale.
