some people have more money than sense.

I think the thing that would worry me would be the lack of use and in my case too many pedals.
If you do go and look at it then give it a proper test drive. :wink:
-
By the look of what he's got in his garage I'd say he like his cars. Looks like a good find
-
Wow! lovely.
There was a similar one in a dealer in Edinburgh though with about 7500 miles, he had it for about 12months price starting at £18990, moving down in £500 increments until eventually either he auctioned it off or it got sold last price I think was £14995.
The year wouldnt bother me if I were treating this car similarly (ie mothballing it) but sadly if I got it, the poor wee thing would be parked on my driveway in all weathers and driven like it is meant to be, therefore in no time at all the premium paid would be largely wiped out.
I think I would be going for a newer one at this price, albeit used etc...there could be a few "warranty" issues still to surface and you would be out on your own.
Lovely example though, even if in some way it does make me feel sad (like seeing a caged bird). :sad:

I think thats been bought by a member from here :happy2:
-
Why buy it in the first place it's a golf drive the fecking thing :stupid:
-
could be something to do with the original marketing info saying limited edition only 1500 to be made... :rolleye:
from the amount of second hand one's you see around im sure it was triple that number in the end :popcornsoda:
-
That is undoubtedly a sweet example but there definitely is more than a look of a caged tiger about it... :sad1: Poor thing :signLOL:
-
Pretty sure someone posted this up last year............. :confused:

What a waste of a car! :stupid:
Didn't Wayne (Moschops) have the highest number ed on here, 2275. I don't reckon there can be that many more after that.

Wonder why it hasn't sold if it's as described? :confused:
-
Good value i say and well worth buying if you can run it in a bit. I'm sure he'll take around £14500
I paid £14050 for my 2007 with 16700 on the clock at VW though
-
To be honest, id pay him that for it if it was Grey or White . I think id pay that for a red one as well .
We paid £17995 for a red 3dr dsg 08 last May
-
Not sure what it went for I would pay 17 for it
Anyone got another tucked away !
-
I bought a DSG not ED 30 tho last august with 44 miles on it from a VW dealer who had 5 and sold them all on the first day. Never missed a beat for me and mine was probably standing in a dock somewhere so I wouldn't worry about it standing tucked up in a warm garage. Agree with other comments tho car feels better the more you drive it.
-
Will be due a timing belt and water pump change this year :wink:
-
I have a R32 just like this :happy2: '08, Recaros, ect, kept in the heated garage 6300 miles, i might sell it :smiley:
