£100 says they live moved to Italy due to work and with the car being RHD they find it difficult to drive it over there.
They ship it over,u pay when u get the car,have a week to check it over and if u dont want it,they take it back and give a full refund.
The catch is tho,they will want ur bank details 1st.

Good point, John. http://english-66643715030.spampoison.com/
If it's been repsrayed and had those seats re-trimmed etc then it's not going to be that cheap. Even if it is one of the old ones. (For anyone that doesn't know, they changed the interior once or twice before now)

Do people not realise there is such thing as a spam filter?
And do people not realise you can have more than one email account especially for such instances?
FOr instance..... fail@gmail.com

Seriously, you'd think that they would realize it's fake by all the rubbish in it and the terrible grammar and spelling. If anyone seriously falls for that then they deserve to get conned imo.

I think they would have more success if instead of saying we will pay an extra £2000, just say they will pay the asking price, dont mention kazaksthaan, dont fill the email with bollocks, spend a bit of time reading the advert they are trying to scam & dont ask what condition it is in when the advert clearly states this.
Even then, everyone should be able to spot a scam a mile off.
I would never give anyone my bank details for anything they want to buy off me.
They can GTF, waste of oxygen.

Meh, the hold their value well, perhaps the same funky chemicals that made him spray it pink is messign with his mind when it came to a valuation 
Or maybe he meant 10,400; 10,440 etc. etc. :/
