Scottish Elises

I'm wanting to buy an ECU from someone advertising on Pistonheads, problem is that we're talking about £600 and I don't want ripped off.

The guy's name is William Cruickshank (Evo_Ufo) on Seloc and he's based in Ipswich - just on the off chance someone knows of him/has dealt with him.

What's the best way to proceed payment/delivery-wise for piece of mind?

Hes also on Exiges.com

I would be very surpirsed if he ripped you off. All imho, cheers Ed

I've bought stuff from Seloc in the past, including a gearbox though £150 isn't the same as £600. I'd ask for his contact details to send a cheque, then you can do a 192 search to see if he's registered there. if he is, and he tries to rip you off, you know where to send the coppers

Only know of him through his posts on exiges.com, but he has been on there a while so not a noob scammer.

I sent £900 to a guy on SELOC and read through his old posts to check out who knew him etc for peace of mind.

I bought both 340r without seeing them and had transfered the money into there accounts before collecting them.

I am stupid I know, but I would have just sent the boys round if there was a problem.

My Nigerian uncle , who happens to be a general wants to send a million pounds out of the country . Could you be off assistance ?

Scotty, I have a new 340r waiting for you if you are looking for one that is for sale, PM me for details, all i ask is that you put the small amount of 20k into my bank account this evening!

You must be as daft as me!!
I bought both the Ferrari and the Merc without seeing them and the 1st time I saw each car was when they arrived off the transporter.

Jim, go stand in the corner

I have a works number, home number and mobile from him. He's based in Ipswich (matches the number) and sounds genuine. I'm just going to phone him tonight and get him to send it and transfer the money...fingers crossed!

do it by Paypal???

split the difference in costs?

I'm sure you get some protection

The guys name is Will Cruickshanks, he's originally from Scotland and rattled off a few SE'rs that he knows (Jamie is the only one I remember) and said they would vouch for him so that's good enough for me.

Lotus Motorsport ECU on its way

Don't do it, he's dodgy as hell!!!











Only joking!! We actualy both work in the same Co. and we regularly chat on various Lotus stuffs. Real genuine bloke and he really does have a reflashed ecu for sale.

I could, I'll easy manage a suitcase full of cash (about $50K in Nigerian Naira).

Don't listen to chip! He bought an Exige of some dodgy Nigerian bloke!
