Nice cars. My mrs was after one, but she only has an auto licence and we couldn't find one /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

dude, polo gti's are really nice cars. They're nice and light, and really drivable.

some have even argued that they are the closest thing to a MK1 golf since the mk2 was stopped.

My dad had one which I regulary drove and it was great!!

Quite a quick car and responsive steering, you can really chuck it around!

Plus a decent spec, good xenons, climate etc. The price he's wanting for it is about right.

I have no idea about price, but I would hesitate at the 3 previous owners...

3 owners in 5 years makes me wonder if it could be a bit of a lemon? Find out why the current owner is selling, and have a really close look at it. I'd be pretty uncomfortable being the 3rd owner in 5 years, let alone 4th

The 3 owners could be an ex-demo plus 2 which would seem about right. Personally I change my car like most people change thier shirts...
