Just as an idea of current prices I picked this up on Monday for £6500 with 57k on the clock and FSh, it was a private sale though!

Spec looks pretty close : http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,42147.0.html

Scroll down the page it is the bright red one.

Thanks mate,, back to the drawing board, looking at this tuesday http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3598760.htm,,, He's recently dropped his asking price from £7450 to £6995.
Feel there's some room to maneuver, just HPI'D it all seems good, looks like it's been lowered to me ? other than that seems all VW factory..
