as i said, it's not uncommon
sounds a bit fishy. 36m x £300 = £10800. how much is the car worth again?
you have the number plate, just do a quick check on autotrader and see how much they estimate the value at.
if you want to, just trust me the reg number and i'll get the VIN number and the options list for the car for you
HPI value the vehicle at 12.5k
Im pretty sure he paid a down payment, only financing the 10k
The last time i bought a car was 13 years ago so things have changed a lot since then, you have to be so careful, about 8 cars I picked turned out to be owned by people who only had the vehicle for weeks, one guy clearly stated hes had the car only for 2 weeks
I was about to view this car
below,was so close to buying it today, its a A5 2015 model, looks immaculate, fully loaded and the HPI price is 14k and the guy was ready to sell at 10k, the only reason i pulled out was because its a 2 litre FWD CVT Multi-tronic, engine mated to the front two wheels, did a lot of research and people prefer the s-tronic or Audis own version of DSG twin clutch, which is more preferred, people say that you couldn't physically change gears on a manual faster than a twin clutch set up.
The 3 litre V6 s-tronic twin clutch Quattro 4WD destroys the 2 litre FWD multi-tronic and the insurance is the same

Thats why id only go for the 3 litre V6 Quattro
I also pulled out from buying a E Class 350 because the services are crazy prices, the insurance on the mercs were always an extra 4-600 pounds
Lastly I also decided against the 6 series because they are to old, the 6 series 2012 model onward were 4-5k above budget, the 4 series are to small and the VW CC R Lines look so nice and fast but the Audi A5s are just better, what else is there thats German? oh Porsche,
just way above my league
