Buyers Beware. Yet Another Mysterious Motor

[Guest 2b cruising]

On the bay. Item number 122169756706.

Asked them what model Robin Hood and the reply was mark 1.

Asked what was it registered as on page one of the v5 and the reply was A535MEV.

Checked reg on mot history, tried Ford, Triumph and of coarse Robin Hood and on each attempt I got the answer, please call this number between 0800 and 19:00.

Something dodgy as he wont answer my last question about make and model.

Someone's £2000 is going to go to waste.

Try PORSCHE !!!

If you look at the part of the v5 that he shows on the photo it says Robin Hood Mark 1 as the model but the engine size looks like 1600cc

Be very careful casting judgement of cars simply based on what mot history / vehicle enquiry service / askmid say. My car wont come up on all of those, unless you match the insignificant typo on the v5.

 

In this case it's clear the ebay seller is advertising it for a friend ,so probably doesn't understand what you mean by 'what is it registered as?'

 

Askmid data:

 

YES. This vehicle is showing as INSURED on the Motor Insurance Database today

The vehicle make and model details on the MID are:

ROBIN HOOD S7

 

 

 

Also, MOT history does list it as a robin hood:

And if it sells for anything sub 3K it will be a nice car for some one.

Yes I have just this minute had a reply to yesterday's question.

It is a straight car and registered as a Robin Hood s7.
