Put a post on Scoobynet asking if anyone would wan't to swap there WRX for my BMW coupe.
Now my Beemer is a 323i and is worth about 4K.
I had an email of a woman asking if i wanted to swap for her Mitsi EVO IV! looks like a 3, P reg silver with 320 BHP and 22,000 miles with around 20K spent on it in the past.Now is this a fuking wind up that i havn't heard of before and it's just some immigrants trying to get mo somwere then rob my car or is this legit? She seemed pretty genuine and said the cars too fast and she needs a commuter.
Hard to answer i know but if it's legit i'm going to bite her bloody hand off! 
How much are they worth?? 5K+

Just got this back after asking her for more details..she ain't to far dfrom me but this sounds sooooooo suspect with her's being worth over 10K 
Dear Alan
I am in St Helens which is in between Manchester and Liverpool, it was only brought into the country in aug this year, it has had a major service from japaneese specialist, mot til jul06, tax til end of dec, in excellent con, there is nothing wrong with the gearbox it has all been checked and the clutch is a new paddle clutch which has been set to racing standard I have been told by the specialist which can be adjusted, it has had HKS suspension and K&N air filter and induction kit which cost me £2300 it has been super chipped and it has had so much moddifications which come to around 20K, I have had it valued by 3 japaneese specialist and they have told me it is worth £10,800 which is cheap for the amount that has been spent on it, but I dont care about the money I just want something that isnt as fast.
Thanks
Beverley
Sounds like somone trying to get me to go somwere in my beemer and then get fuked over!

Yeah could be 
I would love that motor and the insurance won't be much different than the quote i've just got for a WRX off Keith Micheals.

Mate, if you fall for that you deserve to have your car robbed.
If they wanted something slower they would sell and get something slower and have money to spare.
It's a con.

C'mon, if you had the car and wanted something slower and knew the BMW you'd be buying is half that price. What would you do?

I got sent another mail asking for info on the car and the reg etc so i sent this back..
Hi Bev
Unfortunately i havn't got any pictures as yet but it Shaped like a banana with jelly wheels complete with stick on gum drops and the engine is made up of mainly herbs and spices.
The service history was given to me by a blue monkey from space so i'm not sure if it's legit but he had a burberry tracksuit on so i can't think of a reason to doubt him.The president of the united states also want's it so if the deal falls through i will let you know..
Peace out

Nooooooooo your all taking the piss ain;t ya??!!
Her car is worth £10,800 mine is worth 4K and to be honest is a belter but it ain't worth any more.
Even if she had trouble selling it she could trade it in or sell it for 8K on the cheap and go buy a bloody 8K motor like a Golf GT TDi!

I think curiosity would get the better of me and i would have to meet up and take a look. take a few mates with you for insurance. you got nothing to lose......only your car and perhaps conciousness .....second thoughts....
Nah seriously i think i would try and speak to her on the phone, see if she sounds like a chav etc.......
Pmsl at your last reply to her.....I mean how could you "ever"doubr someone in a burberry tracky!!
