Looks good and a lot of money spent but price is high for an 04 car surely?
Yup, especially as I reckon it's a base/S with leather - note lack of mention or picture of sat. nav., which makes it a £10-12k car with extra trim. Who's going to email the seller for just the wheels? DSL? Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana

Why go to that much trouble and then just paint the original (i.e. wrong) arches and the whole bottom sill under the doors?
For a little bit extra they could have got some D3 (MY09) or D4 arches and just left the sills unpainted as they should be - it would have been much better 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE AutoBuckingham Blue 2007 Golf GT DSG

Hhmm, here's a strange one, says it's got a full 2010 conversion.
Although it's got D4 front lights, [hence it would need D4 wings] it's only got the one side vent.
Also, the one that it's got is a D3 side vent.
So, how do they do that ???
Are the D3 wings just 'chopped' to accomodate the D4 front lights & bumper ????...... always on the road less travelled 🚧
‘tis but a mere scratch …….. it’ll polish out.

Nah, way too much like bling. Now a good set of 17"s & Contis would have character & me fighting over them!!
Place your bets ladies and gentlemen. In the red corner, Del the Destroyer....I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Shhhhhh, SWMBO has already told me off for looking at another set of wheels today!

In the bottom picture you can see that there's no sat nav.

Who would want the satnav anyhow, its rubbish.
Car looks good in my opinion, price aint that bad, either the owner has gone to town on it, or he has put right some unrecorded accident damage with a facelift into the bargain.Captain Nick Medhurst would ask:
"What is the first rule when overlanding?"

I agree, but its presence might help determine the spec. (although many early cars were assembled with little relationship to the stated levels of base/S/SE/HSE). As such, and with the benefit of SJ's confirming comment, I believe that it's a base or S car with leather, and hence overpriced. A eBay identity that resembles an XBox GamerTag doesn't instill confidence, either.Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana
