Yeh, but 80k miles in two years....... that's a hard life that car has had!

Chances are most of it is motorway tho.

Uhm it's red, it's Manual, and it's 5 door

Of course it's so cheap

Black - you know it makes sense

Still, even with those miles, it makes sense to buy a well used newer car than a seldom used older one - as long as the price is right, that is

Just goes to show that high miles drop the residuals of any car dramatically - even with a good spec

That is seriously cheap. I assume it's an import and out of warranty and is in poor condition. I can only imagine what the poor guy took as a trade in value for the car.

Probably right - some very cheap motors here, including a 2001 Audi TT for under Ã‚£10k:
