scotty71 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Good advice there Keron, and looking at the bidding I think a bit of shilling has gone on. 4 bids from 1k up 7.6k and the highest bidder is a nOOb!! Has dodgy all over it and thats without all Keron's good points above. scotty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caseys Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I think it may be worthwhile to report the item to eBay at the very least! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deathmonkey Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Nice one Keron! If I hadn't of touched a supra before and saw this I'd be interested (well, up to the mileage statement!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraGirlie Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Couple of people on here currently looking for a TT Aerotop too. Lets hope they see this thread! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supracars Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 got spot pal as i was gonna go and have a look at this. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caseys Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 eBay will tell you to raise it with your local police force that it's potentially stolen property. So unless anyone lives in the same county can do it...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keron Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 i reported it to ebay already..not heard anything as yet... i still have the crime ref no's from before so might give them a ring to see what happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRalphMan Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I've also reported it, maybe if they get a few reports they'll pull this muppets ad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 ring the police, tell them the seller is trying to sell it again and it might be a good idea to go back to the house. I remember I was going to buy this off you when it came in It does actually look quite nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supraudi Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I actually enquired about this vehicle. Owner didnt know much. And I thought GZ Aero's stopped in 1995. The advert says 1996 in one place and 1997 in another. A similar vehicle went for £4795 on Pistonheads about a month ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 GZ aero's stoped production in 1994, one reason they are so rare. It's possible it's a SZ that's been converted, but is still not as advertised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, if its stolen and someone grinds the numbers out and removes the vin plate, and then the cars recovered, its scrap. Cat B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I asked the seller for a photo of the VIN plate. I said he can edit out the number but I want to see that all is in order...He replied saying I can't have a photo and that it was a strange thing to ask.

jackso11 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 If a GZ went on pistonheads for £4795 and it was an aerotop, someone got a real bargain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
