Too good to be true?
« on: 04 September 2008, 11:36 »
Came across this on Autotrader:

http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/www/cars/VOLKSWAGEN+GOLF/Ne-2-4-5-6-7-8-27-44-49-53-61-64-67-103-133-146-236,N-240-4294966995-4294967159/advert.action?R=200835111298468&distance=49&postcode=gu342lx&channel=CARS&make=VOLKSWAGEN&model=GOLF&min_pr=&max_pr=&max_mileage=

Now i may be missing something but why oh why is it so cheap? Its obv not a Pirelli but for £7,500 i can't seem to see why it would be this price?

Any ideas?

haha yeh, no way it could be a pirelli, they prob entered that in the title to get more hits! they obv had some sort of mare with the price, no chance of letting it go for that, unless its either been in a major accident, or the owner is rich and not bothered about price!

If it sounds too good...it will be...feign some interest and enquire about payment details, just for a laugh.

See the last page, I found a similar deal on pistonheads for £7k....it has subsequently been removed.

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 :-)
