Look at the previous transactions - a butlins brochure and fishing equipment...

Sounds totally legit to me!

it would be great if you could get it for £15,000 but there must be something fishy as he could give it back to a dealer for at least £16,000

Look at the 3 bid retractions at:
http://offer.ebay.co.uk/ws3/eBayISAP...tem=2488882501

Also their other items being sold are all cars from Carlton Cars. Look at the bid list & Carlton Cars was the first bidder. Looks like fraud. Bidder bidding on his own items. Also no-one will buy a car from someone with a -2 feedback score.

Could be legit. Current highest bidder contacts seller and offers a good price. Seller accepts and ends the auction. Seller poss pays less selling fees due to "lower" sale price.

Prolly not tho!

I wish I had your confidence and trust in people Carlos. I wouldn't go near that one. Too much BS IMHO.

Chris, your right to be cautious!! A garage near me advertised brand new WR1's for sale at £22k. I went there and took a look. What they had was the standard STi parallel import (265 bhp) in ICE blue. still a Ltd edition, just not a WR1!!! You should have seen the guy's face when I told him, he was gutted as he had ordered 10 of them !! lol.

These guy's just don't know their Scoobs!!!

Steve.

This auction has ended
quote "The seller ended this listing early to sell to the high bidder(s) at current bid price"

yeah right I'd be rushing to sell my WR1 at £15k
