This isn't an auction - it's a classified ad with that as the price!
It's obviously a scam but good point about it being someone's car from the Forums .... thread title updated to include car rego

I'd say someone's Ebay account has been hijacked too with that feedback.

you can check with FPV to match the rego number against the build number. Also the description says it has a cassett player & no way & not in pics either.

In most cases they don't even ask for your money.
Most people will email the person, which will generate a huge email list and it'll be sold off to people all over the world which is why you get spam. eBay is to blame, they should validate listings before they're published. eBay make so much money it ain't funny. |

Well I sent my $10K cash, this is a real bargain. I hope I dont have to wait too long for my car though. The seller said he is shipping it from Nigeria as he cannot drive it there anymore after the King declared some type of ban on high performance cars - does anyone know how long the shipping time from Nigeria usually takes?
