I emailed the seller for further details and she replied with the following:

Hi <snipped - Tim>,

Thank you for your interest in my 2013 Elddis Autoquest 175 2.2 litre Majestic, Manual, 9,422 miles. Full Service History. All documents in original folders. 2 key fobs. The motorhome is in perfect condition, 4 new tyres, no accidents, no damage, scratches or dents. HPI clear and fully paid.MOT Until 11/2019.
I am selling it at £5,700 because I've just finished the divorce and I am very glad that I took it, because it was my ex husbands most precious thing. He cheated on me although we have 2 kids together, anyway I don't wish to bore you with my life's story...
I don't ask to much for it because I just want to get rid of it ASAP, I want to erase a bad memory and I should get rid of it.
As you can see from the pictures my motorhome is in perfect condition.
I am the registered Owner.

Please contact me if you want a secure transaction.

Kind regards,
Dr. Malina Everon

As the price seemed far too good to be true, I Googled her name and it was the top return with a link to your site, on the returned searches.
After reading about the rental scams she/he? has going, I thought I better flag this latest scam up.

Hope this helps.
