Reported to Ebay. Some poor sod is going to lose a fortune otherwise.

 

Suggest others do the same.

At least he has stated it on the add, still not right though!

I sent seller a message asking how a Robin Hood could be registered as a Dutton and he replied "The person who built it was going to build a Dutton then changed his mind, all the details on the V5 are correct except the name Dutton, i insure it with Adrian flux and they are fine with it"I have told him that it should have gone through IVA but I have had no reply.

This is so wrong. This is purely someone who has bought a dutton and nicked the vin number and plates from it

Some poor sod will buy this and get it crushed and loose everything !! People that do this are not welcome here .

The thing is the dutton owners club are very hot on this so they will inform vosa and in a few weeks someone will get a visit and loose some serious money and make this club look bad cos he or she won't say o I bought one of them robin hoods and got knocked they will tell everyone they know I bought one of them s*it robin hoods it was a ringer there all sh*t don't get one !!

I don't see how it can reflect badly on us as a club. We always point out how these cars are misrepresented and warn people off buying them. They've always been around, it's just that they're getting flushed out now and rightly so.

What I can't understand is why Ebay don't remove the ads. when it is pointed out to them what the seller is doing,surely there must be some way of preventing these type of scams.

That's what this great clubs here for !!!

There's loads of really great people on here.

Any car your prob going to look at on auction sites you can bet someone on here's already talking about it

No question is silly but all banter is welcome.

If you see something you like ask away at least you'll know what your getting ( good and bad points ) also any known probs and how other people solved them .
