I have had the misfortune of dealing with this seller. For many years they were located in Staten Island and always had C900's for sale. Cars were BEAUTIFUL in the pictures. All
had the same glowing description and all were offered with a $500 discount if you contacted them first. Unfortunately, the only way you got the $500 or more discount was to purchase the vehicle outside of EBay therefore forgoing the protections EBay has in place when the car sold is not as described in the listing.
Was interested in one of their vehicles, a 900CV, about three or so years ago and happened to be in Greenwich visiting family with the wife. Called the number and arranged to come down and see the car. Again, looked pretty nice in the photos. Got down there and needless to say, we barely made it around the block before the car started stalling out. Besides that the interior was trashed, carpet ripped and torn and the overall mechanicals and electricals were poop. Drove it back, handed them the keys and off we went.
Needless to say, I feel bad for anyone that might have purchased a car from them that was not able to drive it first.
As far as the Viggen goes, it obviously had the instrument cluster swapped out with a used one with the 40K mikes on it. Again, this is their spiel, highlight the low mileage, hope no one checks the Carfax link and then buys it straight from them and not off EBay.
Really is a shame as they do have some neat cars for sale.....
