ask him why. hpi check and see it has been crashed or something. it has full vw service history, but i would check that, as some people lie or get it wrong. otherwise it might just be bargain!

That's about the going trade price so seems reasonable.

Check the mileage in your HPI check though in case it's had a hair cut or something but you should be ok.

Biggest test is offer £1500, if he tells you where to go then it's probably genuine, I guess that as he is a 'trader' he won't budge far off that price maybe £100-150.

lets not forget it is a 2000 model. It's 10 years old! i'd say the price wasn't far wrong

I'd agree with the lasts couple of posts. Doesn't seem "too good to be true", just normal
