I'd buy it if I had the extra 4k in the bank, seems to be a good deal, tried to contact the seller?

Yep Here's the reply I got back:

i'm in England for the moment i have a family emergency and i must to go.
The car is located in one of shipping company warehouses in USA.
If you would like to receive more details just go to their website:
www.euro-shipping-international.com. I already agreed with their terms. It seems that you will have 7 days to test the car before sending me the money. If you send me your details (name, address, phone) I can ask them to contact you directly with all the details you need in order to close this transaction.Thanks

If someone sees it, check the VIN tag rivets and the door.

I have a Carfax account, so if you get the VIN, I'll check it for you.

What amazes me more than the people posting those ads all over are the people still responding to them and thinking they found a great deal...
