Hello,
The car is in perfect condition, it is a 2008 VOLKSWAGEN Multivan T5 California Biker with 53,000 km on board. It has all the papers and has no problems at all. I tried to sell the car while I was in Belgium but there wasn't enough time as I had to return to England to resume work as soon as possible (I work as a construction engineer). Therefore, I had to take the car to England with me. In these difficult times, my job is very important to me so I had to quit selling the car in Belgium where I could get a very good price, as compared to the one I am asking now.
Once in the UK, I tried to sell the car here but nobody was interested in buying a car with the steering wheel on the left side. I've received very low offers from the car dealers, that's when i decided to sell the car in Belgium. I've made some inquiries and i came to conclusion that i could get a better price even with the additional transport costs that I will have to pay. Also, the car is still registered in Belgium, making the car attractive to Belgian buyers.
The price is 12,000 EUR. This price includes the transport to your address, registration tax, insurance.
Let me know if you are interested and I will send you the car so you can test it for 7 days before you buy it.
Thank you !

This person asks for a payment to a non-existent escrow company with a promise that the vehicle will be delivered to you for inspection.
Sounds safe. It's not!
The emails claiming to be from the company are fake.
If payment is made and you give this person or the fake company the details, they will collect the money.
If you hear from them again, it will be a request for more funds and they will take your money until you have no more.
There is no vehicle for sale!
