Looks OK for the money, couple of quick observations from the ad though, the image of the wheel, thats definately not a genuine wheel and it's advertised as having xenons which it hasn't got.



Have you done a history check?

As above, about right for the money.

I love it when they say fully loaded, it doesnt even have Xenon Headlights, Sat Nav, LED rear lights, parking sensor, rear view camera, adaptive chassis control, tyre pressure monitor, genuine BBS alloys or DSG !!!

Still nice car though mate  :smiley:

It looks like an Askers version of "fully loaded" The only options that I can see are leather, cruise and RCD510

As Jimble said, those wheels are definitely reps. I'd be surprised if they make it through the winter. If it has a HID kit fitted, they are illegal.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

genuine BBS alloys

Mk6 wheels aren't BBS.
Mine weren't anyway.

Early Mk5 Monzas were...then they were made by Ronal, as were the Mk6 wheels.
Unless someone knows otherwise?
