He claims it's got a Supercharger in the ad...   :confused:

There is no such thing as a cheap car you pay in one way or another.

All the Golf R adverts do on Pistonheads for some reason, not just that one. :smiley:

You know what they say, if it's too good to be true it probably is. I certainly wouldn't be going down to check it out with the cash in my pocket!!

Certainly looks ok but he's the 3rd owner in 2yrs so that may be a factor to look into.

At the end of the day he may just have a legit reason for a quick sale, redundancy etc and needs to get more that he would selling it to a dealer or webuyanycar.com

Doesnt seem cheap enough to be a scam, may need a quick sale and it may be scruffy but hpi's ok.

The amount of owners wouldnt bother me as it most probably was purchased as a demo and then sold = 3 owners.
Many BMW'S and one bog standard MK5 3dr Golf GTI.
