Scary stuff.

This is a bit like walking down a street and ignoring a mugging rather than getting involved.

Someone needs to do something. Please.

I guess it is down to Gee-Dub-Ya to do the reporting as the directly influenced party, AFAIK, he is the only one with contact details, address etc.
I don't think there is any more we can do  :-/

Erm, I think it is illegal to turn a blind eye if you know a crime has been committed...

I do feel for the guy... He may have been unaware in the first instance but he's not being honest now.

TBH, the only thing I fully trust when looking at a car is my knowledge, experience and gut.

With one clear exception.... Josh! His descriptions are A1 and he has already proven that any car he has sold will be as he describes, even going out of his way (and out of pocket) when he had a car go wrong :y

I'm sure there are plenty of other good sellers, Roger Budden is highly respected (but then he should be at those prices! :o ;D), but Josh has proven himself to me. I'm sure Del is very honest when he sells his cars but I've never looked at any of his proper ads ;) ;)

Eh? I don't feel for him, he's trying to rip someone gullible off! How would you feel if you bought the car and then found out it had done a quarter of a million miles?

To finish on a lighter note, I am honest. But then again I don't sell cars so you can trust me ::) ;D

IMHO, as he is now totally aware of the car in all its respects of mileage, condition, engine, etc etc he is KNOWINGLY trying to sell the car again in several different places, with differing descriptions of it. In my mind then, he is also KNOWINGLY trying to decieve a potential buyer.

That makes him a fraudulent seller at the very least, a crook maybe, and not an honest person definately.
