997.2 C2 Manual on autotrader at £21k

This seems great value. I know it's high mileage but if looked after this seems a great way into gen 2 ownership.

:yeah:

Apart from the previous owner(s) consistently running tyres to slicks the MOT history stacks up well.

It should be snapped up very quickly - probably by a trader looking to make a quick £kfew.

Where does it state that?

That's the only time the tyres were worn down below limit:

Latter.
 
When I spoke to the vendor around midday he said he'd already had over 10 calls - I tried to offer the deposit then and there but he said he wanted to send some service information over from the garage by email. I awaited the email eagerly which never arrived and now the listing is gone. :sad:
 
somebody got a great deal on that then.

lets hope its private and not a trader who will put it at £27,995

And advisories in 2012, 2018 and 2019 but, as we don't know when they were actually replaced, my reference to 'slicks' may not have been an overstatement. :wink:
 
It's a scam, not sure what's to be gained but I'm sure someone does.

Repair immediately (major defects):

Monitor and repair if necessary (advisories):
Offside Front tyre perished


:?:

Apart from a cut in one tyre (not a bald tyre) there's nothing there to suggest anything other than normal wear and tyre of tyres and are perfectly legal.
 
Maybe the seller mistakenly started the price with a 2 instead of a 3, as others have said sounds too good to be true
 
Might be the wifes car and theyre divorcing. :grin:
