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.

Thought might be something more than this as that price.

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

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?
