need some advice and help lads please,im selling my type r unfortunatly due to financal reasons and all the intrest im getting is from over seas theres a bloke in ireland that says he wants it.and there a bloke called klas from sweden that realy wants it, emails have gone back and forth and he gets more intrested everytime i send him an email,then today i had another email from another bloke in sweden that says hes intrested.klas says that he is getting someone in the uk to come and have a look,then said if they like the car he will def buy it but could i meet him at the port so he can then take it back as he doesnt want to have to buy insurance for this country,does any of this sound strange to any of you and has anyone one been scamed buy anything like this before because i will be gutted to be parted with my pride and joy (that im only selling due to rubbish finances )only to be ripped off.any advise would be welcome

Doesn't seem that strange mate, But I'd only except a TT transfer or cash with regards to payment, No Bankers drafter etc

see i think this somethjing doesnt ring true have you heard of it before or just going by gut instinct.

Its not necessarily a con. Think about it, if he buys the car here he has to insure it to drive in the Uk. If Daz gets it to the Boat it only need Insuring for Said Country surely. Daz i WILL kick your *** if you sell it anyway

Most UK insurance now covers Europe for no extra cost. Therefore wouldn't Sweedish insurance cover use in the UK?

Mats

It is not a con!!!
I can vouch for this guy called Klas! And i think Steven D can vouch for me also.

Regarding the insurance, it is not possible for a swedish person to insure a car that has not been registered in sweden. And you can't insure the car before it is on swedish ground.

Don't do it! Like Chrispurvis100 said, stick to the UK mate.

Mats

Why not sell it to a guy that is a genuine buyer?

This is the car i bought: https://www.scoobynet.com/private-sa...ck-8950-a.html

I also helped my friend buy a Type R V-Limited a while ago :https://www.scoobynet.com/private-sa...oing-time.html

So you can see that i am a serious person and so is this guy called Klas.

Rgds,
Mats

i feel very different knowing that it someone from sn im just very weary when it comes to selling things theres so many scams.if you could let him know my concerns as it is my pride and joy and dont want to loose it to a scam.

I don't think it will be a con. You just need to set the terms i.e. he gets the car from you. I sold my first WRX early last year to a couple from Northern Ireland and we literally agreed the sale over the phone after he'd seen a couple of photos!!! I got him to come to the nearest airport where I picked him up, he OK'd the car, paid me in cash and drove off.

Smifster

It is slightly different Northern Ireland Vs Sweden - thats my thoughts anyway. I would be cautious, but I guess that is me.
