-98 S4 in London , anyone has change to go and take a look?

Post by **Pekka** » Fri May 25, 2007 2:44 pm

Yes i believe so too.

In replys for e-mails he states that:

- is the first owner of car
- car has never had any accident
- Non smoker car
- Great condition
- etc.

And making a basic question of typical faults like if exhaust manifold's or turbo's have been changed or repaired he didn't know anything about...

And shipping for free (to Finland??)!

But he did send more pictures than there is in anouncement...

Wonder who's car he has used for that.

Still 2 questions....

1. Does the company he informs have anything to do with this?

2. Should this be reported somewhere?

And 3. what happens with my beer drinking trip to London...

I'm with MarkB on this one.

You send them the money and then say bye bye to the lot.

I had a close look at the photos to see if there were any clues ... it doesn't look like London to me? No tax disc in the window. Perhaps I am just very suspicious!

Ask the vendor for the Registration Number and when the MoT and road tax expires.

Im with me on this one

Asked in one of my e-mails if he could take a photo of registration documents.

- The reply was that VIN- and the papers come with the car when shipped...

But still i am intrested in the company / website: http://www.world-w-cargo-delivery.com/i ... ntact.html

- At contact information the e-mail address is different if you click the link than what there reads, the address gotten by clicking the link is not functional

Anyway, just send an e-mail to that adress if they have the car... (Who knows where the mail goes and who replys) and can it be seen. Does anyone know if there is anything in London at that address given?

I'd guess that if there is anything at that address in london then it's only an office,

London Office
165 SOUTH LAMBETH RD
Zip code: SW8 1XW, London
United Kingdom

It's apparently two doors up from Robatos Wine and Tapas Bar. 165 South Lambeth Road is a Pharmacy.

You may find this interesting...

Yeah defo drop this like a lead balloon as it is total bolloc*s. If he has already paid for the shipment then it's a sunk cost so it doesn't matter whether it goes by the company or you pick it up.

Transport and money protection website registrants are individuals in the US. Two separate domains - one for the website and one for contacting should your 'shipment go missing or you wonder where your money has disappeared to'

Unusually the website has no phone number to contact and consignment tracking is free. It all adds up to a bargain.

"Speak with us now 24h / 7days"

And what happens if you try to give any tracking number you could think off...

Perhaps you can track your money disappearing offshore into these scum bags Bank account?

Post by **yorkie** » Fri May 25, 2007 7:51 pm

My guess is you'll lose the money and not gain the car.

Its 100% a scam, sorry no 4k S4, walk away and, keep on looking.

they play the same scam in the UK all the time, giving some talk about the cars abroad, need a quick sale as registering, insuring a UK cars to expensive, hence the quick, cheap sale

same spelling mistakes as in the emails from the seller; "brake" for example and "contact" instead of "contract", The grammer is also incredibly poor for an official communication. it'd be a very brave man that'd give this one a go

Forgive my language but in my opinion you will be an utter <beep> if you even consider this for a second longer.
