I've seen the above local for £1000.
Its done 128k but has a year tax and 1 year mot.
I'm thinking o down grading my 138 gti to this as I have a son and only one wage at the moment.
I'm just wondering if the price suites the mileage?
Also, it's diablo red, as is my gti, so I could swap everything over.

sounds about right to me, mostly due to the tax and mot being a years worth,

If its been serviced and looked after well, the engine will outlive you, they are like tanks.

Just make sure the cambelts been changed at least once

Ok, small update.
The above car had sold just 30mins before I called the guy up.
So I'm on the look out for another.
The thing is, I'm abit confused about the road tax situation.
Some 2.0 hdi dt 90 are only £30 a year?

Can anyone shed some light on why some are cheap and others are alot higher?

The £30 ones are the Eco version.

Mine (which is the older one) is still only £60 for 6months, £115 for a year... Not too bad for a car that returns awesome MPG.

Mines a 04 and it £120 for 12 months. If you are looking for the ECO one you will need to look for one with the green I in the HDI badge

I picked up my 2.0 HDi for £1600 with 87000 on the clock. Got chucked in a free service. Got the cam belt done straight away. Average of 50mpg even with giving it a bit. The only thing that I hate about mine is the tax - £180 for 12 months. However it is a W reg so emissions will probably be poor. Keep looking, sure you will find something.
