Hello all,

Wondering if anyone here lives in Cape Town South Africa?

I have been looking high and low for a certain manifold for my civic and have found a guy that makes them in South Africa. The web page is pretty basic and they dont take Paypal or use ebay etc. They only payment type is credit card or direct deposit into their account. Sounds a little risky to me.

If anyone lives in Cape Town, South Africa, I am willing to pay them for their service to go and pick up the manifold from the supplier and send it to me in Aus, just to make sure I actually get it. I can pay via paypal.

Please contact me if you are able to help out.

Thanks

ur gut feeling is probably right. they're probably running a scam like the lottery scams run by the nigerians.

what manifold are you after?

I am after a Delorto 40 manifold for a D15.

The reason why I am asking if anyone lives there is because I want somone to check it out for me. And I would like to talk to them about possibly helping me out with getting something from there IF they are genuine.

South Africa isn't a completely backwards country.
I think I remember a S.African signing up with a CL9.

It does sound a bit risky to me that is, direct debiting to someone overseas that you already suspect is dodge. :thumbsup:
