Are you sure it is 05 reg :rolleyes:

Just looked on Autotrader and there is another one near you which is a 55 reg with 17k miles, 3dr. manual, with cruise. In Knaresborough. From the pictures it looks like it is in good nick and you would be hard pushed to find a 55 reg for that price at a dealer. If you're thinking about it then I would start negotiations at £14k. It doesn't say ONO on the advert - but if she wants a quick sale you stand a good chance of saving a bit. :wink:

Xmas time approaches so haggle hard
I would also travel to get the spec you want rather than settle for closer to home
There are planty of GTI's about so take your time and find the one you want  :cool:
Good Luck

Sounds like a good deal as long as it's a straight car. And Silver always looks clean :cool:
