Reasonable price for the car is question so I started to do my background research into the seller. A simple google of the phone number supplied in the ad suggests something amiss. This private seller has sold at least 5 cars within a month or two. All high spec for reasonable prices. I was able to deduce the sellers house is up for sale aswell along with a german shepard and some waterford crystal bowls... all from this phone number.
I am wondering if anybody thinks this sounds like a little off?

Looking at the sold cars below:

Why the different contact names/ yet same number.

Why is the ownership being changed and then immediately advertised once the new VRC book is recieved.

Has anybody out there purchased any of cars listed? I would very much appreciate if you could put my mind at ease. I am very interested in the car for sale above but something is tell me to stay well clear.

Any thoughts would be much appreciated! Sound Dodgy or not?

Thanks!]]>
