I would imagine it is all ex lease stuff going by the ages of the vehicles and the mileages on them, I would be wary of paying that sort of price for a mk5 gti.  Will have probably been used and abused and may well have a dodgy past.

Just reading their info and it looks like it is all reposessions you will need to be quick to buy anything decent from them as dealers will be buying their stock from places like this.

I did a quick search as it all looked too good to be true and it could be a scam site:
