I think it has been reduced from £12.5k to £11.5k, hopefully the seller will get back to me then i'll give him a phone and see whats what. If its a good example then its a bargain.

Im just worried that there might be something wrong with it, thats why i sent the seller an e-mail asking about its history etc so hopefully the reply is what i want to hear. Its really cheap in my opinion hence why i think it has some problems or is really rough.

OK,
Just spoken to the guy and it appears the car is a possible CAT D (Had a rear end shunt but doesn't sound too bad). All repairs were carried out by Pentagon and the car is completely standard. He was completely honest & up front and a great bloke to talk to, he's hoping to buy RS6 +. If mine sells tonight I may pip you to it Hektor.

If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is........

Good luck with your hunt. It's getting more of a minefield nowadays to find a good one

Defo, there seem to be alot of CAT D's, C's and then the one with higher mileage which look tired. If this guy had dropped this a K recently then I'd ask questions too. Get it properly inspected by specialist before parting with your hard earned.

Just got an e-mail from the guy saying the same, Cat d with rear damage, its a shame because it does look a decent example but i would'nt buy a cat d, but the guy seems decent and answered my questions. If the car is good Shagga i think there may be a deal to be had, good luck

Dont you just hate it, when someone advertises something....gets your hopes up high, then they give you some bad news and it F**ks it all up for you...

He was completely honest & up front
Maybe I expect too much of people but if he really was honest and up front then he'd have said it was a write off in the ad?
