Post by: Dec on 16 February 2009, 08:33: :huh: Seems strangely cheap.. I would have thought that it would have sold within the 8 days it says its been up if it was that cheap mind so he's probably turned a load of people down or something :undecided:

Post by: ifti on 16 February 2009, 11:09: I think its a typo in the price - no way a 08 ED30 would be at that price without any major damage to the engine or somet.
He's probably corrected people as they ring him, which is why it hasnt sold yet....

Then again, a great way of getting people looking at your ad! How many of us have looked at it just because of the price typo!?! lol

Post by: wellzee on 16 February 2009, 11:28: Perhaps it is a repaired jobby, cat d or whatever. There must be something not right about that price!

I did think it was about 6-8k underpriced. Was going to drive down today and pick it up! :undecided:

Let him know it was a typo though and that he should get it changed. :smiley:

Post by: bobotheclown on 17 February 2009, 16:58: i thought ed30's only came with tartan interior and didn't have an option for leather. That's what the dealer told me anyway when I wanted to order one back in early 2008.

For some reason, VW database always shows the ed30 seats as "leather" rather than part leather.

Post by: bobotheclown on 18 February 2009, 16:27: strange. Shame the tartan gave me and the missus a headache, otherwise I would have got an Ed30.
