I think anywhere that asks you to pay for a car fully before its shipped to you is a scam. Only had a very quick look but the whole website seems a bit fishy.

I Think id rather book a flight, a taxi and a ferry to colect the car in person. At least then you can see what she'll do before bringing it home!!

This is a clone of a scam site that was take down a while back. There was live chat etc. but they can't tell you much about the cars as none of them exist. 110% scam.

EDIT: The previous one was http://www.cars-direct-inc.com/ which was taken down in early December last year. The cars details were ripped from Autotrader IIRC.

The domain address is on the Isle Of Man, just like the previous web site. Unless you want to while away some time annoying them, steer clear.

They are very rude, I just asked them how their scam was going and what happened to the previous web site and they closed the chat window
