It doesn't ring true. Non-existent new cambelt and water pump and a new engine? How would it need a new engine when it's barely run in? The advertiser is either Johnson with the truth or totally incompetent.

If it was me and the car was near enough I'd go and have a look. The way I see it you are buying the car not whoever is selling it. As long as you know what to look for (or have taken someone with you who does!) you can decide whether it is worth what you can get it for or not.

Over the years I've bought cars from all sorts of people.

Stay away.
I know the location of the car and you would not feel safe there.
A typical back street of a major city.
As for the car....... Stay away. A great deal wrong with the advert puts me right off.

Come on, let's not exaggerate, the car still has wheels!
