Unless you have a very long barge pole, don't touch it, the fact you cannot view the car is reason enough to avoid it.

Is it me, or does the plate not look right? Something about that number 5...?

How cheap is very cheap out of interest?

Seriously, walk away from this one. I know you want to believe that it's real, but it's not. You will somehow lose your money. It's really, really not worth it.

Best thing to do is forward all the info onto the police.

Also darker wheeled one has standard mirrors and silver wheeled one has stubby ones? Could be different car..
