I reckon he forgot to put a 1 or a 2 before the 8000...
Even at 18000 would be a good price though (IMO).

I didnt. Was not interested in that way, was just amazed at the cheap price. It has not been advertised in the papers since the about start of last week.

options are....

1. miss print but unlikely if posted on 2 sites

2. flood damaged car or a total lemon

3. some sort of legal settlement............i knew of a lady who sold her $50,000 mercedes (husband had bought it for her) for $10,000......because she resented her husband, hated the car as a result and car was not therefore included in her part of the asset pool.......meaning husband owed her more in the settlement !!

But which number to call?

http://www.drive.com.au/used-cars/holden/monaro/sydney/detail.aspx?id=38572327&lid=38572327&pg=1&pp=4&d=0&from=53

At least this person has it listed in the right state to match the number plates

Very likely to be a scam and there is no car for sale, I have seen a few like this when a car is advertised way too cheap,
they tell you you can't get to look at the car but they will send it to you after you have paid the money by Western Union or something else.

Here is another thread from a couple of years ago.
