Mmm, let me see. 5 year old Passat TDi with only 52k miles and photos taken in what looks like a carpark. I'd be examining that service history with a very big microscope and I mean comparing the VIN on the log book and contacting the garages that stamped it. It ain't cheap either given it is a private sale, basic spec and terribly dull colour.

Personally I would be looking towards something like this. Higher spec, one owner car with a full VW service history.

I'd be scrutinising the service history on this one a bit more, especially for anything after June 2011 when it had 159,699km on the clock (slightly more than advertised)
