The big banner headline says "2008 Mini Cooper S Transmission". I think if you sent the guy money he'd send you a big heavy box. Were I selling the car I'd include many more pictures including interior and engine bay.

I have seen other ads for different cars in a similar manner. Just too good to be true.
