Perhaps it was a typo on their behalf, sent them a message to let them know. Perhaps they'd written an ad for a black'un and just used the same ad but changed the details. I've listed various things in the wrong category for that very reason! :D

Power says 130bhp but the description is shocking. No mention of mods, service history, charger history or anything and its at £3k already?

It's not a typo, if you check the reg it comes up as a black G40. Might be fine, but it's a reason to question it. Mine comes up as grey.

I've asked a few questions and he doesn't seem to know much himself. Took it in P/X for an S3 and paid just under £3k. Perhaps it's been resprayed in grey. Shame :( Nice colour, etc but there are no black cars anywhere now! Rubbish!

I have a black one. Logbook claims the engine to be a KR code. Could have come from the same dealer! Haha.

Can't believe it went for that!!  Mine might be worth more than £100 after all...
