What's wrong with these cars?

I am currently after a mint b5 and it's proving extremely hard to find unmolested, genuine examples.
These two have been for sale with the one dealer for a very long time, does anyone here know any history on the two vehicles? I am from Northern Ireland and just wondering if anyone has a heads up as I wasted a lot of time and money flying to England to look at b7's which were mostly crap before I got mine.
Cheers

Yeah those two have been for sale forever. Gotta be something off about them.

Avus sold quite a while back.
Black been up for quite a while now as previously stated.Original unmolested B5's are pretty rare these days,
Good luck in your search,might be worth a look over on SRS as there are plenty of B5 owners on there.

Someone went to view the black car recently. The bodywork is terrible on it from their report, excessive rust, trim missing inside the vehicle, the downpipes are badly damaged and blowing. That's all I can remember off the top of my head.
