Hi

I am looking to buy an Edition 30 GTI and found this one for sale:

The advert looks good apart from not having any history, having 4 owners already and it needing a clean.

Does anyone know anything about this one?

http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201020359345805/sort/priceasc/usedcars/maximum-age/up_to_5_years_old/model/golf/make/volkswagen/saved-search-id/2c92962e28f796040129129576ce006e/postcode/ng25hl/keywords/edition%2030%20dsg/page/1/radius/60?logcode=p

Thanks

Is the GTI badge on the tailgate in the wrong location (too high up) or am I imagining things  :rolleyes:

4 owners is not that unusual is it? particularly in these days of high petrol prices...people buy a GTI cos they've always wanted one then get the sh1ts when they see the real world economy perhaps...or just the way some cars go...

Does seem a little on low side of pricing mind you and .... it could do with a bleedin good clean!

Let the fun begin........Red Gti, full colour coding, DSG, Xenons, Winter pack, Lux pack, Highline, Sat Nav, Sunroof, Leather, Milltek, ABT rear valance, Goodyear F1 Asymmetrics....pescaras :-)

Avoid, the GTI badge is indeed in the wrong place and it just seems very dodgy. If it's too good to be true, it usually is.

That garage is VERY dodgy - it's in my area and we all give it a wide bearth. They like to sell cars that have been accident damaged but not recorded - half the time the repair is rubbish.

Yeah, that would be why the badge is in the wrong place.
