Warning on Buying LR (or other makes)

My attention was drawn to this article by the picture of a nice RRS similar to that I would have liked to have owned.
This seems quite a good trick to be caught out by.

It seems that as good cars (and parts) get scarcer, they become more attractive to take.
I would expect that FL2 parts will become very attractive in the future as production ceases on new items.

"Police urged people to be aware of the risks when buying a car"

Apparently there are ways and means of getting around the system if you are a villain

I wonder should the chap involved have done some online checks

To my mind he chose a high risk deal - I certainly wouldn't do what he did. Jules
