This is the response I got from my note to the seller telling him I would 
like to see the car in person.
This guy is smooth. Cheers, JL

Hi there,

The 1961 AUSTIN HEALEY 3000 MkII is still available for the price of #7,000 
GBP + shipping to your door.The estimated cost for door to door shipping to 
just about anywhere in the UK will cost about # 500 GBP and takes 8 days to 
arrive at your address. For an accurate shipping cost please include your 
shipping address in your next email.

The car is meticulously maintained. No damage, no scratches or dents, no 
hidden defects, runs and sounds awesome, the engine has never been repaired 
or something like that, never been into accidents and it is as advertised 
.The vehicle comes with all the documents, original ones. The car comes 
complete with full service history and is stunning in every way.

The car was bought from UK, it meets the UK specs and the UK road worthy 
regulations and it complies with the UK emissions standard.

The vehicle is accurate, corrosion free, no scratches, no damage of any 
kind, was properly serviced and stored, has a clear title, all the manuals 
and the original documents are in English. The buyer will receive them along 
with title and all the additional documents needed for registration upon 
purchase.

I have just came back to my home country Hungary because I got a very good 
job offer here. I did some research, as I brought the car with me, with the 
intention of driving it but when I found out about the very high import 
duties and all the restrictions regarding registration and emissions tests 
here I have made up my mind and decided to sell it. I have another photos 
available, so if you are interested in buying it let me know and I will send 
them to you.

I am a private seller not a dealer thus this transaction is sales tax free, 
however please note purchase price does not include shipping and insurance 
taxes. This transaction is insured by the vehicle purchase protection 
program, which means that after you receive the car you will have a 5 days 
inspection period to inspect it and to evaluate it's mechanical and 
cosmetically condition before buying the vehicle.

I want to take the opportunity to assure you that this deal is 100% 
legitimate, the financial part of this deal will be managed by Ebay, in this 
way both of us will be protected. I will make all the documents from here on 
your name and address, they will be signed and legalized and when you will 
get them you will only have to put your signature on.

If you want to complete the purchase please send me your ebay ID, your full 
name and address and I will notify ebay that you are selected as my buyer. 
After I get in touch with them they will contact you to explain the entire 
procedure.

Please email me soon if you want to move forward and let me know if you need 
anything else.

All the best!
