WOW!!

Only just seen this, to confirm I sold it to a guy in Bradford for £6800 with 120k on it (he didn't want me to MOT it) weird that!!

To confirm the reg is DE08 NUK.

Amazing what a google search of the reg can show up! This car is back for sale on ebay. Doesn't look like a Miltek exhaust to me either.

Sorry to bump an old thread but may help someone out

Dodgy f*ckers.

Also it's on 120,000 miles now so it's gonna be on at least 140,000 miles.

Heavy that.

Different seller as well..

May be batting it between people to confuse and loose it....
There is no replacement for displacement....
But a turbo does help....

That's what happens to hide any discrepancy as the finger cannot be pointed at just one person.

A similar thing happened to me. I part exed my polo with some service stamps and no paperwork (although all services completed) it was then posted on their website with full service history and all stamps in the book.

Dragging up an old post here, but was looking at my post history. DE08NUK was an ED30 that had been clocked back from 119k to 97k. A quick Google search suggests it's had no better luck since....clocked again (numerous times) and now at around 52k miles  :fighting:

April 2013: 119k
April 2014: 110k
May 2015: 70k
May 2016: 52k

It's called "MOT Check" on the UK Apple App Store. Quite useful for a quick lookup and to quickly check when you or your family have MOTs coming up :)

It's not perfect, but not a bad little app.
