bleeding crook!



Someone bought a car on ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4651166464

Now he's selling it on ebay using the same photos description etc but with a tiny difference – check the mileage – he must have been reversing a lot !!!

Strange but he must have been caught out because…

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine

I believe the stats are that 1 in 4 cars is clocked. Alas, for us, is that Omegas are one of the worse - the cars easily eat big miles without showing the strain, coupled to how easy it is to do on Omega, make it an easy target.

He reversed the clock far too much by mistake that he actually had the car un-built!
