Hi Sara,

Yes, the car is still for sale. Would you like more information or would you like to come and see it?

Thanks

The scam....

Hi James,

Thanks for your mail,I will not be coming to view it because of my
Job,i am an Oceania and i am buying this for my dad. I am at sea right
now, i accept your offer and i will be happy if you can assure me that
the vehicle will mine too. I can only pay through PayPal at the moment
as i don't have access to my bank account online, but i have it
attached to my PayPal account, and this is why i insisted on using
PayPal to pay, i will be responsible for all the pay pal fee/charges
on this transaction and i will like you to get back to me with more
pics if available, all i will need is your PayPal email address to
make the payments, and if you don't have a PayPal account yet, its
pretty easy to set one up at www.paypal.com i will be expecting your
email. my mover will come for arrange to pick up after payment clear.
Thanks and nice doing business with you.

Cheers.

Sad news Olly. Sign of the times (again).
How about a link to the pistonheads ad, and putting it up in the for sale section of the forum?
The forum must attract 'silent' browsers who are just looking at Golfs and other info on them prior to purchase (and thus may be in the market for one), yet don't want to actually post on the forum, hard though that must be not succumbing to the lure of having to interact with us (and the others  :smug: )
