He's just sent me this junk.......



Hi there,

Since I`m located in Sweden I won't be able to handle this transaction in person.
The car is already at the shipping company in Plymouth, Devon -
(Transport Operations Limited, http://www.transport-operations-ltd.co.uk/contact.html).
I asked them to allow viewers to go there and inspect it but their reply was "We are not a showroom!"
They have been mandated to handle the financial part of the deal. Also they will deliver the car at your door at no extra costs.
They require money upfront. You have the opportunity to inspect the vehicle when they drop it off. There is a 3 working days inspection period which allow you to test and inspect the vehicle. In case something is wrong with the car, the shipping company will refund your money.
If you have any questions please call them!


Thank you.



I think I'll ask some details re the car just to waste his time then see where we go. Agueroooooooooo. 93-20
I swear you will never see anything like this ever again....watch it..drink it in.

Link doesn't work

I'd be inclined to leave a message with a contact number of local CID

Link does work - just take the ) from the end. It's being going since 2011. Just dropped them an email asking about the RRS Regards

I get the impression that by dropping them an email you will really be dropping him an email . That web site doesn't look very convincing and most of the links don't work. Agueroooooooooo. 93-20

Fair enough, you a muppet if you fall for that one, sadly some people will. Firm believer in handing cash over when I have the item in front of me....... Most people don't mind as cuts paypal out of the deal and saves them commission

Pfazz you could always go back with "good to hear that the shipping company are handling the financial part of the transaction too, tell them to expect me on.......... And I'll take the car away and give them the cash" That should see who's greedy  Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer... Today I are one!

I have emailed the person I purchased my RR from, as he lives in Plymouth, asking if he knows anything about the company. Regards

Strange................

Transport Operations Limited, is a genuine company, and they have 80K assets and 75K in the bank, so at a quick glance they look legit. However they are registered as "49390 - Other passenger land transport", which every one else uses as Mini Buses, not a freight handler or transport company, which would have been a more accurate description of the task in hand. And there is no mention of David Readett as a director, got a feeling that they might have been hijacked too! Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer... Today I are one!
