    well i guess its hard to tell for sure but it seems pretty obvious:

    the price is too low, the k's are too low, there are no pics, the vin is just the numbers from the plate, and the plate if you google it comes up on some US reverse lookup page. (i dont think AU has them like that ? - num-alpha)

    id make an enquiry but i dont want them getting my email (if carsales passes it on im not sure)

    i worked it out, maybe its legit, but seems funny still, and all those ads hes running have the same sort of description.

    do you think any of those other ads seem to good to be true ??

    yes, after seeing the photos here : Glen Mayer

    i can see that qld has num-alpha plates.

    maybe its been re-registered with new plates.

    does any of the other car deals on this link seem to good/cheap to be true ??
