I came across this one tonight http://www.carsforsale.com/used_cars_for_sale/1966_Sunbeam_Tiger_213973959
It's looks like a 1966 Tiger that appears to be in very good shape for only $11,900. Anyone familiar with this car?? Looks like a very good car for the price. if all checks out.
Good luck Tiger hunting.

Heck, that's not even my caffeine budget . . . . . .background foliage sure ain't seen in Gardner, MA . . . . . .no response from seller . . . .
 
I see why!!

Probably marked way down as I see it didn't come with the highly coveted optional cigar lighter... Really nice car, somewhere.:rolleyes:
 
Ever Notice

How little ash tray is, seems too small for a cigar...

I have seen some really nice ones on eBay with a Tiger or the Sunbeam crest insert. I know you are kidding and have a GPS etc. plugged in like everyone else.

The proper one looks like the washer squirt knob.
Now that you have your original air cleaner looking for the small bits?
 
These pics are old as I saved one of them in 2011 as a background on my computer.

Well the "owner" sent me lots of photos and an invitation to send money. How accommodating . . . . . . . .;)

I told the seller that I could stop by today and that I had cash. A response arrived 2 minutes later. See following.....

Hello, thank you for the interest in my Sunbeam. First of all the car in MINT condition!!! I am not in US anymore, i'm a pilot, and i am working for an airline company from Europe. The shipping is included in the price. I sealed the car in a container due the many problems with shipper handlers that i heard, i wanted the car to be received by it's new owner without any scratches.

I am selling the car because i have family problems, i just divorced from my ex wife and have to split some things with her. I need to sell it asap, this way i will have no more contact with her. If you are interested i will give you more information. The shipping company has a department which acts like a 3rd party objective, this way we will be both protected. The car has only 41,576 miles, the title is already signed, no rust, no nothing!
If you are interested let me know, if not i wish you'll find a good car, thank you, James.

James seems like an honest guy--how could you go wrong with that, and he even sealed the car up so it doesn't get harmed. And he just divorced his ex wife, so does that mean he married her twice...... :)

Ohhh...Oh....tell him you would like to send a certified bank check for $12,000 over the amount so that he can return $10,000 to you via western union money transfer. That you need to remove some money from your account without paying taxes.
 
Dude

Get your money laundering skills straight. The must be reported level for banking transactions is 10,000

He's correct in the 'nothing' department.
 
Definitely Entertaining!

I have had fun "playing" with the hook when I have encountered scammers like this in the past.
To bad they probably never get caught...I wonder how many suckers they reel in...
 
Fraud

Well guy's I've also baited this person and got the same sorrow story,getting divorced need to sell etc , so I told him that I wanted to view the Tiger and if It all paned out I could drive it home no need to ship !
Here the response I got ; I signed a contract and also paid in advance a part of shipping. I could unseal the container but only if you agree to offer me a guarantee.Thanks.
Hope nobody got lured in this scam ...
 
Guarantee him that if the car is actually there you will buy it.. :D

It amazes me the effort these ba$tards go to with this rubbish... i hope they all get what's coming to them.
