Nice detective work Blower, thanks for that. guess that’s the last time I use cheap car checking sites too!

A touch over 19k miles was due to go down tomorrow in view to buy however things are cooling off very quickly by the looks of things. The car has every option possible too which makes it so hard for me to believe it’s too good to be true. another thing I will mention when looking for insurance quotes twice it’s come up saying it’s a manual when it’s a dsg! however just to make things more confusing all hpi checks come through fine plus he has the v5 and I’ve checked the vin and engine number which all match 🤔😑 could he be cloning this car and has kept his old v5 from a black 7.5?

Manufactured date 31/12/2018!? Am confused 😕

Well this is my concern, it’s up for sale too, seems a bit strange to me but never thought of the unregistered idea, but yes I thought the 7.5’s were 67 plates too. can anyone else confirm this? I’ve tried googling it but no avail

Seen a mk7 R on 18 plates not the facelift one, I always thought the mk7 ceased in 2017. So like the heading says do you still get 18plate mk7’s then? Must’ve been the very last built ones surely if that is the case?

35.8mpg!! Now I know none of us bought our R’s for the mpg side of things and as the saying goes “smiles before miles” which I certainly agree with. However having to do a 50mile round trip everyday for work it is nice to try get a decent mpg. This 35.8 I achieved was me driving like a grannie with her dog in the back seat which brings me to the question has anyone ever managed to get the magic 40mpg that VW claim the car can do? Cos no matter what I’ve never managed to do so. funny enough I should mention I got this figure the day after I got the car stage’d 1 😃👍🏽

This is one of the best I’ve seen 😍 mind me asking how much this hurt the purse?

Does anyone know if any of the sponsors or performance garages do or are doing any Black Friday deals this coming Friday? Nearly bought a couple of things tonight then realised might save a few quids if I waited a couple days. cheers

I too have done 33k and same as you only had oil changes from VW 😏 after seeing this makes me wonder what the state of our haldex pumps will be 😩 Can I ask how much you paid roughly for the the full service or was it mates rates? Cheers

Did you order these mate? Wondering how long it takes to ship from the states, quite keen on all three badge vinyls 👍🏽

Can hardly tell the difference 👍 you got the link on eBay? Am planning to do something similar

Hi Marty did you ever email Ecotune? Was planning to pop in and see them this week some point. cheers

Haha I did wonder that myself, it was the guy that sold the car that took this picture and upon closer inspection it turned out to be his briefcase 🤓 which believe it or not came as a peace of mind as I had the image of a sensible geeky office worker previously owning the car and not some boy racing chav....turned out I was right! “I’ve never even used the LC” and after looking at him.....I think that really was the case!

Was one of the first thing I looked at Tom was the bolsters and they looked fine will no doubt upload pictures when I get her cheers

I did think that Simon when I uploaded that picture though in the flesh it’s much darker, however think you might be right now. thanks
