It will come with a clear title, bill of salesigned by me as well and all the papers (including the original manuals and keys) that you will need to register it under your name.I'm selling it at a low price because I've just moved to Dublin,Ireland and I can't drive ithere because cars from here are with the steering wheel on right ,and this it have the steering wheel on left so for me this car is useless.I hope that you will understand my situation.E-mail me back if you are interested.If you want to buy it you must pay fees for $1600 for shipp the car to your place and after delivery you will pay me the amount i think is a safe way becasue in this way you will have the car delivered to your place and you could inspect it for two weeks.If you agree with my terms email me back and tell me when you could pay the me the shipping fees so i could manage my time for start the shipping process.Hope to finish this deal bouth!

Wait, so he used to live in the US with the Jetta, but moved to Ireland and shipped the car with him?

And after that he realized he couldn't drive it there?

Some scammers are obviously dumber than the people they are trying to scam...
