Saw a great looking deal on Autotrader. 2007 Merc C180 for £5,160. Too cheap I know. So I emailed the seller and this is the reply I got. I think it's a scam...
Does anyone else think it's a scam???
"The 2007 Mercedes C180 SE KOMPRESSOR is still for sale. A great car, never involved in any accident, in excellent condition with full service history. My job put me on the way to England and I purchased this car there. Now I have to sell it as I've got back home in Switzerland. The car is here as well. The final price is £5,160 + shipping to your door. For an accurate shipping cost please include your shipping address in your next email.
As you probably noticed, the price is rather low. But since it's a right hand drive car, not even a dealer will offer me a better price here. The fact that it's still UK registered did not help either.
I am the registered keeper and there is no outstanding finance on the vehicle. The car is in excellent condition, the bodywork is immaculate, no scratches, dents or hidden defects as well as the interior in excellent non-smoking condition.
Due to amount involved and due the fact I am not located in United Kingdom, I only accept third party transaction mediator. All documents, including V5 log book on your name will be provided along with the car.
Please email me soon if you want to move forward and let me know if you need anything else."
