my father bidded on and won a 09 plate motorbike on ebay, it was listed as a stolen recovered and had very light damage which is was fine with as he was looking for a project. Anyways we turnt up to buy the bike and when i was with him i got him to HPI the bike case there was any outstanding finance as it was a 09 plate bike, the hpi came back that it was not a stolen recovered but it was a accident write off cat D, it was also listed as black but the bike was blue, this set alarm bells ringing as two things were not checking out, then the seller started to panic as was trying realy realy hard to sell it us so we walked away. now the seller has opened up an unpaid item dispute case on ebay
as far as i can see the contract for us to buy the bike is void as the bikes blue but listed as a black bike on the hpi and its also its registered as a accident write off not as a stolen recovered as advertised. plus isnt it illegal to sell a vehicle without stating its a cat d write off?
