Looks a bit dodgy!

£6k for a MKV R32 - I doubt it unless it is a scam or the owner wants to pass on any debt associated with it as well. :undecided:

Thats got total scam written all over it. If it is legit then i'm sure the seller would be happy for you to do all the necessary checks, home visit/inspection, check documents etc etc. Could be a Cat D repaired i suppose? If they say no to any of these requests then step away....if it looks too good to be true then most likely it is!  :shocked:


Just had a quick flick through Pistonheads. Theres a 56plate on there with simular mileage up for £16500 so I suppose it could be a listing mistake?

If it was a mistake, why would they have put £6,000 in the description too :undecided:

Possibly on finance with it outstanding? Could be £10,000 left to pay off or something? Not sure how all that works.

Lovely car though! :cool:

Thats exactly what I'm thinking... I can't believe people actually respond to some of his posts... the trolling is getting more sophisticated though as I'm not quite sure whether he is serious or not at times  :grin: :grin: :grin:  But he's part of the furniture over here now and we're all quite used to him... he's a domesticated troll  :laugh:

Sad fact these days that people put stupid prices on their ads in order to try and attract buyers. Been happening on Pistonheads for a while now but at least you can report them to the administrator and get them removed :wink:
