edd_t Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 My dad is selling his RV8 (free plug woop http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?255507) A guy keeps wanting to come down from Bristol to see the car but cancels a lot, weird thing is that he hasnt even asked for my dads address yet, but wants dad to send more pictures to him because he has other people intrested in it (which i doubt). He says hes from fine & classic in Bristol but I cant find such a company, he even gives out a fineandclassic.co.uk e-mail address (that fails, also no website). Sound dodgy to you? It does to me, I'm thinking of telling my dad to fob the guy off, am hoping he hasnt given him the address yet. Edd... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Dont give him the address where the car is, if he wants to meet pic a pub or similar a few miles away. Thats what i do, better safe than sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobUK Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Just because he has no website does not make him dodgy... The domain is registered... Details attached! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No because £14K isn't enough, or no because you don't like the idea of a BACS transfer? Presumably you would have waited for the funds to clear before allowing pick-up? What am I missing here? Edit: I see your dad was after £18k. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraAyf Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Edit: I see your dad was after £18k. Sorry. The missus and I looked at buying a green one last month and the six cars we checked out were between £9,500 to £13,995 and the guy selling the 14k car was willing to do it for 12k. That RV8 register seems a very expensive place to shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edd_t Posted November 23, 2011 Author Share Posted November 23, 2011 oh god yeah the ones on the V8 register arer always expensive, although I think dad should have his more at the 15k mark rather than 18k! I guess you were looking at Woodcote Green jap imports for £9.5k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
