Sounds a good buy, full leather is rare! 3 or 5dr? How many owners?

Be good if you could beat it down to 4k, then thats a great price!

Its a 3 door
the boy was originally wanting 4600 got it down to 4400 due to tax running out shortly. He isnt wanting to go lower but i think am gonna buy it anyway cause i have been wanting 1 for so long with leather interior

Sounds decent mate.

thing to look out for:

Gearbox sounds, or whether its been through a refurb

pedal box recall - they all had them, check under the boot carpet for a sticker to prove it was done

clutch - has it been replaced and when?

cambelt tensioners and water pump - has to be done on all GTis, if it hasn't budge around £250 for this.
