2010 Freelander 2 TD4_e Sport Manual Lago Grey

Mobile phone number whilst claiming to be a trade seller (vodaphone network)

No other cars for sale

Extremely underpriced considering model, mileage and condition

And as previously posted, just the one photo in what looks like a car park

Does look too good to be true, i would call them whilst blocking your number and try and suss them out a bit more, but yes be very wary Sport LE Lago Grey

May just be on the VCAR register, Cat C or D, which would be priced about right

Could be an accident damaged as junior suggested probably the most realistic. If not its a ringer using stolen identity of another car. Pretty standard stuff about here, 4x4's (especially defenders) growing legs overnight so FL2's could be the same.

One thing for sure is nobody is gonna sell there car cheap just to give a stranger a bargain.

not worth the bother. I went to see a defender once that was an obvious ringer, I even found a matching one at a land rover dealership with the same plates! Informed the police but they couldn't be bothered to do anything.you would have thought they would be grateful for a stolen car on a plate!

What do the Police do nowdays? There was a TV programme on BBC1 last night & a case like this was featured. The guy bought a ringed BMW 5 series which the Police took away & closed the case so the guy did the Police's job & tracked down the ringer - eventually the Police did arest the ringer!!
