A scam on Gumtree ? Surely some mistake

I usually go on the rule of "if it is too good to be true, then it is too good to be true".

€5000 for that is either a scam or a misprint. Folks, what makes you think scam other than the silly price ?

I cannot believe that some people are still duped by these ultra cheap prices. Do a bit of research and see the average price of similar cars, anything that is miles cheaper should ring alarm bells. These cars are not genuinely being given away for half nothing.

The other give away is that the only way to contact these bogus sellers is by email. Everyone has a mobile phone these days and genuine sellers will always be contactable by phone.Scammers will always communicate via email.

too good to be true??
