That 'bargain' ENV gearbox of 2010 has appeared again on Craigslist but the price is reduced to £1100 - I guess there is not much demand.

I wish the Police would take an interest.



Beware…..

The technique used by the pretend seller is quite clever.The first stage is to copy an ad and ask the genuine seller for more detailed pictures as a genuine buyer might do. When the ad is recycled as a fake it has a link to the bogus seller and he can provide convincing detailed pictures when asked.

Back in 2010 this picture was provided-



Was the original ad correct in saying this was an F-type gearbox?
