Saw this listing on ebay and about fell over:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ferra...17149236QQrdZ1

it's a running, maintained '85 CA Mondial and its parts alone are worth twice this .....

what's your take?

I feel to jump on this just for giggles...already emailed him.

Typical ebay scam listing. If you emailed you, he'll be in touch. Likely he'll be telling you that the car is stored somewhere, all you've got to do is send partial payment, he'll ship the car to you, you can inspect it and send him the balance, etc, etc, etc. Whenever listings are half price or cheaper on eBay, that tends to be the case.

too bad, though...

Saw one on eBay a while back - guy selling a 360 and a Porsche 911, low start price, bidding was up in the low thousands. Description was a bit dodgy as were the stock photos, sounded like he was selling scale models - no mileage, MOT etc. Guy was local so I asked to come and see the cars. Disappeared off eBay the same day

I had the same experience about a year ago, an excellent 308 for $10,000. claimed he was in the military and had the car shipped to him overseas, now it doesn't meet euro-standards, so it's of no use to him, but refused to be contacted through e-bay. Then the ad dissapeared, so did his emails!!! SCAMMER!!!
