I got confused and I posted the same reply several times. Please, excuse me! Well, it's kind of late since I told him I'd come to the UK and asked where the car was and if we could arrange a meeting. I suppose that he won't answer. I think we've missed him. Well, at least everyone who is thinking on buying a car should know that there are fake adverts on http://www.mobile.de as well.
P.S.: I suppose there is no PAS website at all.

Feel free to send him another email (even if he doesn't respond) stating that you will no longer be able to get there, but would like to still consider the offer. See if he gives a site.

Also what was his email?

Obviously don't put yourself at any risk. If this is something you don't want to do, that's fine too. The more info we have, though, the quicker we can get them shut down.

Here´s another one:
The first email i got:

"The car is located in Valencia , Spain and i bought this car from Belgium.
The car has belgian papers and belgian number plates. The technical control is ok .
I worked in Belgium and i bought the car there to have it for my work . Now , my working place is in Valencia and i want to sell the car as fast as i can , because the company i am working for , has bought me a new car and cannot keep 2 cars . The tax for registering the car in Spain is also too big and i prefer to sell it for a lower price , while it is still registered in Belgium . This car is registered in Belgium and it has belgian papers and number plates . If you want to buy it, please let me know ,and i will tell you the terms of the deal!
I can bring the car to your location if you want to buy it . I will pay the transport.
My phone is: 0040 741364505, but please call me in the evening after 6 pm , because until then i am at work."

note: 0040 = Rumania

second email:

"I will employee a shipping company to bring the car to your location. No extra costs. I will pay the transport.
This is their website: http://www.vala-transit.com They work very simple , i give them the car and the papers and you pay them the money for the car. Then, they will bring the car to your location .You will be able to go to an authorized service and inspect the car and you will also test drive it. You can keep the car 3 or more days before deciding to buy it.
If you agree with the car , you will make the papers and the car is yours, if not you will be fully refunded ( they will give you the money back).
They will also help you with the paper registration.
I will wait an answer as soon as possible.
I have already given the car and papers to the transport company , to be inspected for any problem and to be prepared for transport . You must contact them by email at valatransit@hotmail.com for the payment and shipping details and they will inform you everything you need to know.
I have done business before with them and they are 100% serious company.
My phone is: 0040 741364505, but please call me in the evening after 6 pm , because until then i am at work."

Thanks a lot for this site! With your help, it was very easy for me to find out that this "special offer" was a fake!

this is the name of the guy: jozef diels <dielsjozef@hotmail.com>

Hello;

as you correctly identified, this is a fake, too. Here it involves mails coming allegedly coming from autoscout24 (but in reality they come from the scammer, of course). Similar scams are also run on ebay and other sites.
