Has any one ever dealt with or heard of these people before? Got some cheap cars on their website and wondered if there was a catch..

Scam. Email addresses on the pics was enough to convince me.

The cars are cheap, but not cheap as in a good deal, just cheap because they are old scrappers

Yea just got an email from someone.. It's a, I'm in Norway and the car is with a shipping company and they'll drop it round for me to view it and pay for the privilege type thing.. Knew it had to be a scam but couldn't figure out how. And all the nice cars have dissapeared now.

That's the same site design as that other place that had RR Sport for 10k isn't?
There was a thread on here.

I looked at a Volvo that they had.
Rang the guy Friday lunch time, asked if I could see it around 3, he said he needed to pick his kids up from school then, so arranged it for 10 on Sat morning. Rang him when on the way, went to voicemail, tried a few more times, still no answer, sent him a text. Got there, saw the car, no sign of anyone. In some run down, old factory type place. Car was ok, all of them were ok for the money. Tried ringing him, still nothing, gave him 15mins then left. He text me about 2 hours later, while I was signing the paper work for another car. Text said 'U like it Its there' then another saying 'I'm in Birmingham on delivery'

I've never heard of them.
Edit ; The company just giving out a mobile number rather than land line says to me they don't plan to stay there long.

It was end of Jan when I went to them. Their unit is the type of place it would cost loads to have a land line put in

Looks legit to me, they only have 7 cars so it's probably just one man not a full on business
