Another fake Defender listing on Ebay
Still not sure why they do it. What do they hope will happen, somebody dump £4500 into their bank account sight unseen?

When I was looking for mine I saw so many of these.

The normal line was the owner was overseas/too busy to meet/selling off after a divorce etc.

A freight company has the vehicle and they would ship to you to inspect. You had 5 days to inspect and if unhappy can return, the kicker is that you have to pay a % of the vehicle value to the freight company that is refundable. Forst time I asked for the V5 and they sent a fake one that the REC vehicle check picked up on, that's when the penny dropped as hats off they did it really well.

As soon as I told them no monies are leaving my account until I have the vehicle and authentic V5 they disappeared.

The daft thing is , if it was more realistically priced it would be more believable, but less than half price!
