Hi Ekona, See below: 1) eBay classified ad. Few short sentences stating quality etc. low miles, FSH...ETC. 2) Rebbeca Brennan82 on eBay as it was her classified. emailed her x2. 3) advert disappeared and heard nothing. 4) then had text a few days latter stating car still for sale and to email her ... Charwat45@gmail.com 5) replied to that and had the now famous reply about she was in Italy and the car was at Harvey's Auto Transport in Scotland. They would deal with the sale and to email them. 6) emailed them. They invoiced me for the money stating that only bank transfer. So I called my bank and they confirmed that we were covered. ( but money was moved from another bank but now told NO bank covers transfers so have raised a complaint via my bank). 7) was a bit apprehensive but as the bank said was covered thought nothing to loose......so moved money. 8) had confirmation and told to wait 3 days before delivery... Even had live chat with someone via Harvey's site... 9) did ask if I could collect but surprise a no. 10) and the rest is history.. Car didn't arrive.... Their bank details... 77/66/68. 00522560. Mr B Budeanu. TSB account. Hope that ok..?

Thanks for the replies... Feel like a prize **** now. Only went ahead as my bank told me I would be covered for the loss.. And surprise surprise ...now they tell me I'm not..... And may have lost 3800£..... Have reported it but police aren't bothered either... Thought of going to BBC OR ITV to see if any program's deal with fraud.... *******....

Hi guys, think I've just been done over by a quiet elaborate scam. The above car was on eBay again but given an e mail account to sort out a sale via a company in Scotland . Harvey's Auto Transport. Paid 3800£ for it but it's not shown up and unable to get in touch with anyone. Also website is down for maintenance...? Appears a lady call Charlotte Watson was selling the car under an alias of Rebbeca Brehan on eBay. But think all a big scam. Will be chasing the bank in the morning and Police to.

Hi many thanks for all your input. Just what i wanted.... esp GM.

Hi, just getting an 05 plate 350. Based in Sunderland . Was wondering what options do I have to perk up the performance....to a budget... What best options and brands for air intake, exhausts...etc.... Thanks. Richard.
