Got to admit, i was going to shout 'MONEY PIT', but that car looks like its more recently been owned by an enthusiast who has cared for it and maintained it well.

Mileage might be a concern, but I think its rather spiffing!
 
Too many miles and on a 15 year old car.
Too expensive for what it is.
NEW 6X9 SPEAKERS WHICH ARE HIDDEN IN THE BACK SHELF
KENWOOD CD PLAYER
NEW WOLFSBURG CAR MATS IN RED
Would be enough to put me off...

Might need more new tyres soon, if one has worn out then chances are at least the other side will need doing (I would change them as a pair personally) so not the best maintainance...

This is true, but tbh, if i was about to sell a car and it only needed one tyre to pass an MOT, I doubt i'd spend a quarter of the asking price on tyres
 
I wasnt intending to go for this one specifically, just used it as an example of the sort of thing to go for since they seem to be reasonably cheap and there are a lot around.

Reasonably cheap? £550 for a 15 year old 160k mile Mk2 Golf?
