    It is a very good buy with so few km's on the clock, it would be worth about 16-18k but i wouldn't sell it for a maverick.

    If you are worried about the clock being wound back, then ask for the service records. You will be able to see the steady progression over the years (hopefully about 6 or 7 thousand Kms per year) if all is well. If it suddenly goes backwards, you know you've got a problem!

    It may be correct.
    I bought my 97 Tdi in 2004 with 35,000 on the clock.
    I suspect the guy had bought it aspiring to do a "big" trip, but and it sat in the garage most of the time.
    But yes if they can't produce the signed service records it might be sus.
