this is the reply I had when I enquired about the vehicle

 

Hi there,

the 2005 Nissan 350Z is still available for the price of £6,700 GBP. The car is in excellent overall condition. I have just moved back to my home country Hungary because I got a very good job offer here. The Nissan is here with me as well, but I can arrange shipping. It is still UK registered.

Because of my loacation I suggest that we close this deal using the security provided by eBay's Vehicle Purchase Protection Program on such transactions.

Please email me back soon and let me know if you are interested.

All the best!

Chris

 

I then had a response from the ebay
