E55 sensible miles

[buccal]

A lot of oomph for almost 10 grand:

I agree, lovely looking E55, a lot of car for the money. Ad is cr4p though. It is probably missing a few of the toys and it says absolutely nothing about the tyres, service history, previous owners etc.

Possibly a scam being that cheap?

 

[e55]

Sounds far too good to be true

+1.

Only genuine case I can think of would be if they're trying to get just a few ££ more than they've been offered from a dealer for cash as a trade sale or something?

At least there's a phone number in this one! (unusual for a scam ad)

The wear on the driver's seat bolster looks bad for the miles advertised too.

Theres a fairly large Army Camp near Hadleigh, I'm wondering if this has been bought in Germany by a squaddie. Might explain the cheap price.

It sold on e-bay for 18K so I'm guessing it's a scam.

Well spotted!

I gotta say your detective skills are brilliant..

 

[e55]

Isnt that the "Smillions" brought just recently?

Yes I bought it for £18k.

Its lovely and this ad is a scam.................. seat bolster treated; new mats; gorgeous

Well spotted.

I looked for some time and genuine high spec cars with good miles (its actually done 48,000) are hard to find for much less. £10k is W210 money or perhaps a very early W211 with 100k and lots of owners.

Carlians had a 2003 75k miles car at about £16 which they sold - just no pano roof which I wanted

Does look nice, seat wear iffy given the stated millage?
