jonesgti you cannot seriously have found a cheaper 08, this is £15.5k!

Interesting that the sellers name is Par, signs his emails as joe and states that it is cat x and he has all certificates, I asked for names of insurance company and previous owners, said that contractually he can't.  It could be legit....bobo if you are bored, intrigued or have a twisted sense of humour go have a look....... :tongue:

I highly doubt that R Parker is the seller as Orpington is not in Sheffield. It isnt a million miles away from me. But I don't want to go and see it in case I buy it lol

Jonesgti... :tongue: :tongue: :tongue: gimme gimme gimme  :tongue: :tongue: just what I am after...none of that double declutching manual shift stick, throw back to Henry fords day stuff.....lol... :laugh:

Have to admit the seller here seems more plausible...but that could be a very good act, you never know at all.

If he took trade ins and offered me circa 10k I would probably risk it,..however I am largely still getting rear ended up here in the North by Stealers in denial...its gonna be a cold hard winter coming for these tosspots.

Just found this http://www.parklane4x4.co.uk/13515/stock.htm

08 r32 for £15.9k

Good luck with finding an R32...  much better than the standard GTI, although if I had to choose between the Ed30 and an R32 with current prices, I'd still go for the R32... the Ed30 modified is a beast however.  I was in the R32 yesterday and decided to take off quickly - limiting the revs to 3k rpm though as its still being run in with only 100 miles on the clock - it was so nice not to have any wheelspin despite the fact its shod with the crappy Dunlop ShyteMax tyres.  In my Edition 30, even a limited take off like that would have sent the fronts spinning - although with a few more mods like Quaife LSD and engine mounts, that will be very limited.  I have good Michelin Pilot Sports on the Ed30 also.
