Hmmm... did VW do European delivery on Westfalias?  If not, the line "BOUGHT
NEW IN GERMANY" is definitely a lie.

I've been to the auction and watched a car sell then saw that same
car on craigslist that evening. That craigslist ad came with a
cock-and-bull story about an inheritance and having used that car to
commute for months. The key for me was having to wait for the title,
I would have believed the advertisers story if I had not seen it sold
that day. Nothing wrong with turning a car fast but telling lies
about your history with it.

I guess this craigslist ad doesn't make any claims that couldn't be
proven and it does not mention a title.

As always, buyer beware.
