Price would depend on the age. No mention of what year it is. Also most of that spec listed is standard equipment. DVD Nav, 6cd, rear parking sensors and multifunction wheel (I think from memory) are the only options I can see.

£1500 too much IMO.

Had an Ed30 sold in March this year, 20K miles, 3 door, similar spec, mint, and I mean mint!

I struggled to get £14 private.

Tips,  RNS 510 Sat nav is best, highline DIS is preferred (only a £50 option when new) and gives a whole load more functionality.

Good luck with search

Thats what I thought about £1k too much but how much is a years VAG warranty worth ?

I would go for it, its very low mileage and like you say that warranty could easily save you some money if you do have any problems.

It's a dealer go offer 15 on that they'll take it.  I paid similar money for mine and it's almost exactly the same spec

That dealer price is about spot on, they always mark up their forecourt cars.

Always best to go private sale to get the best bargain, and avoiding dealer markup.

The extra money covers any aftersales warranty claims is what your forgetting Stokey :wink:
