morgey Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Dvla issues apparently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Socks Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 It has the same reg as richdogs White mk1. Which is a bit scary if it is a dvla issue! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 So is the car cloned or is this a scam using pictures of a car he doesn't own? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Socks Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 The car is defo not the same. So ringed or cloned plates. I would be amazed if it was a dvla error. This community is too small to get away with cloning plates tho! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 The guy messaged me back last night on gumtree saying the car is 100% and 850 is the price I've asked for more pictures of the interior etc and he says he will get them for me today Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Apparently 170,000 KM is about 85,000 miles as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Socks Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Well this gets more interesting... Be VERY Careful with this folks... Richdog's car is EP82-0105200.. As seen here: which is the same chassis number as the one advertised above!: So the cars have the same chassis number? WTF is going on... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Well that's strange either one could be dodgy really but if one is for sale for 850 I know what one i think is the ringer how would they have got richdogs chassis number? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Socks Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Well that's strange either one could be dodgy really but if one is for sale for 850 I know what one i think is the ringer how would they have got richdogs chassis number? Chassis Numbers are stamped in a large font. Pictures or even at shows. Wouldn't be hard to be honest! Even on modern cars, the chassis number is usually below tax disc visible to the public!
