just got an email from the scammer with the samba......






Hello,

Yes, the bus is still for sale. I attached all the pictures with it. My name is James CLARCK, I’m a 44 years old, professional building inspector. I must tell you that righr now I`m located at my father's farm in Great Britain (Kent). He has some health problems and we are forced to sell the VW. My last price is £ 5.000. The bus still has irish registration (documents). I haven`t proposed to make a fortune from selling the VW.
I listed the bus on several websites for more publicity and believing that I can sell it faster. Due the fact that I received several e-mails from potential buyers with various offers for it, I decided to sell it on the principle "first come-first served"! If you can`t come here to pick up the van, I can arrange an delivery at your location & you will have 5 days inspection period untill you decide to buy it or not.
If you still want to buy it please let me know, and I will explain you we can make the transaction quickly and safe!

Best Regards from GB!

don't fool yerself. I have yet to see a good UK import 1303...
hey Trev,i was kind of tempted to ring about this car-was thinking about a cheap daily driver that dosn't need an NCT and has cheap tax.
you reckon it would be pretty bad rust wise is it?-like fook#d sills and all? are 1303's any worse for rust than 1200?dont really know much about where they rust,or if theres different things to look out for on 1303's.just want something to drive for six months/a year without completely falling apart.-or is it best avoid this one altogether?
has anyone come across this one before? is it 1303s? thanks

there`s no papers with that car colm, sounds dodgy, could be cheap run around though. copy ross`s plates and you have free parking and toll free, speeding ticket free, etc etc driving ;)

sound Barry,i wouldnt like to put anyone out too much-if it was close that would be great.i forget where he said he was-i think close to Dublin-will check again..
i wouldnt mind if it needed a bit of welding,but dont want a bag of rust either-mabey thats too much too expect for 1300 euros?
