I started getting some calls today, asking if my car was for sale. Some of the forum members recognized the picture in the ad that I took two years ago at the KKK Camp Out. I don't know too much about the details in the ad, but I did get in contact with the seller via Whatsapp and was told that the car was already sold. What makes it worse is that he was selling it under the Aircooledwonders name.
I can assure you that the car is on the lift at the moment, with the gearbox out for repairs.
I really hope that no one here got caught in this scam.
Safe buying.

Re: Split Beetle for sale
Here is the picture they used. The pictures they used of the interior was from another car, probably taken from the internet.
