the VIN matches on all points on the car.But i haven't checked the engine yet

Just to be sure.....check that the VINs on the car are infact the original VINs and not just welded on new ones.

The words import must be on the log book and the date when imported

Strange to have originated in a country where they drive on the right?

Was just doing some research on the net and came across this on piston heads.

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/largepic.asp?i=1210059&noPics=3&imgsrv=1&current=2&make=MERCEDES&model=^CL[:digit:]*

I was sure that the picture of the engine previously posted was the right engine but had to check before i made myself look a fool!!!!

This is the link to the actual car for sale on piston heads

Hope this helps

The car could be ordered that way especially if the owner was moving back to the UK in the future

thank you and that does show that it is a fraud as the car is not what as advertised

I will fish out my V70 V5 and see the exact wording for an import though mine was imported brand new
