hello fella.. just read your thread. really bad luck with this purchase, but we all make mistakes (even though technically you didn't make one as such)

kudos to you for sticking with it and doing it the right way... karma will be your friend

hope the little scroat that sold it to you (and/or who stole it) will be ass-raped in prison

enjoy your new legit ride  :cool:

Christ!! That's quite an ordeal, I'm kinda scared about buying a car now if DVLA, VOSA and HPI check didn't throw up any alarm bells.

Just out of interest, how come you are now able to insure the turbo model if the 2.0 was too much? I won't ask how you got the money for another Golf, that's just plain rude :grin:

hi mate yes been a nightmare for us, it wasnt as bad as i thought it would be on insurance last year i was paying £160 a month for 1.4 golf, now im paying £179 a month for 1.8t but did have to put £370 deposit down  :embarassed:
but after what happened i just wanted the best i could get, i was utterly skinted so had to wait a few paydays then put £1000 deposit still owe some money on car to be paid over 3 months, so the next few months are gona be hard with over £600 a month going just on the car thats without the odd jobs ive had to do on it and of course the daft petrol  :undecided:
but i love the new car and if i win in court ill be happy!
