Subject:      Doka on Ebay with what appears to be a switch VIN
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1


For those considering bidding on this vehicle, it looks like another Doka
with a fake or switched VIN. Know what you are buying.
Note that the VIN decodes as a 1986 Vanagon made in Graz Austria. That tells
me it is likely a Syncro. Since the Seller is representing this truck as a
1990 2wd, the VIN in the auction clearly does not belong to this truck. I am
not saying you shouldn't
buy it. I am simply advising you to take appropriate steps to
protect yourself.
