Joe it almost looks like the colours off, but i could be just going nuts ? it looks like its been sprayed, but it could be the pics !!!

Best thing Joe ring a VW dealer near the guy, and ask them to check the car out for you, there might be a small fee but it would be worthwhile ?  Or tell the guy to get an AA inspection report and you pay ?

what ever you dont rush bud !

dealer can tell you sme of car history as above, best get it hpi'd to make sure its accident/ theft free, as for seeing it perhaps have someone near it take a look for you ?, i recently checked a car for a mate and took my paint gauge and found it had a whole new drivers side !!!

There is nothing wrong with the colour to my eyes just pay for a full inspection and wait the results You can probably count the people on one finger buying an R32 in the next couple of weeks so dont rush anything and dont do anything impulsive.
If you lose the sale there will be another one next week.  :innocent:

Joe i dont want to sound negative but so many lemons get bought by people wearing love goggles i myself got done when i was a teenager.
You would be the biggest muppet in the world if you just gamble on that car just because its the spec you want.
Do things properly or you may get stung.  :rolleye:

PS i think i need to give meself a slap i cant believe i am being so sensible.  :rolleye:

Car is very cheap for that spec. The only thing that puts me off is the sellers username :confused:.

I don't think he would end the auction for a £100 deposit - I wouldn't.

It's not too far from me and there are a few members here and on the 'other' forum who also aren't a million miles away.  Sadly I'm in Devon this weekend else I woulda had a nosey for ya.

Sent you a PM with some vehicle details Joe.

It was built 27 11 06

Post by: RedRobin on November 13, 2008, 06:07:29 pm
....

Surely it's worth losing £100 if when you return, your HPI checks etc make it a no-no. And if it all checks out positively, you've got your R32.

hope the hpi works out for you joe. and looks mint to me (colour).

Post by: neg on November 13, 2008, 07:36:09 pm
Thats does look nice and decent money.  Its easy to assume there's something wrong with it but its not always the case - get it checked out and hpi'd - not much more you can do due to distance - then make your decision!

Ask if he'll throw in the Real Madrid shirt  :laugh:

Post by: Phil Mcavity on November 13, 2008, 08:51:14 pm
it may be the camera or hes played around with the images on photoshop. I would find out as much as you can, run a reg plate service history check at your local vw dealer joe.

just be careful buying from a private seller, always double check and triple check etc. Good spec by the looks of it.
