A few months ago there were a few (and I mean just a few) Rs in pretty much basic spec in VW dealers for around the £25-26k mark. They seem to have risen in price now the launch VW demo models have been sold and there is scant supply of new ones. So a good place to put your money if you jump out quick at the right time.
The one above would be a good buy as it has the right spec and colour at the right price. I wonder what VW have offered him to buy the car outright though, I'll bet it's a pretty crap price if he's offering it at £27k.
