Nothing dodgy going on here!! I know the guy that owns the car Just coz he's the 4th owner doesnt mean there's anything odd going on. Its nearly 3 years old and I know people get them on Priviledge and then sell them on after 9 months so its quite plausible. Nowt wrong with the car either. Infact I helped him pick it out!

well that makes it more reassuring but I bet anyone else looking at it will wonder what's up with it! That many owners is always going to make it harder to sell on

yes maybe true as i think this is the 2nd or 3rd time he has put it up for sale...sure Pink could confirm that if i am wrong?

I notice he said relisted due to timewaster. Problem is, cars which have been in accidents and other circumstances where there have been problems often change hands quickly, so if you ever see a car with higher than normal owners then you are going to exercise that much extra caution.
Like Pink said, the car may be perfectly good and in this instance it sounds like there's no hidden problems, but if I see one with that many owners, it sets off alarm bells for me!

At £7,600? Nah I'd say that was about right, if not a little too low. What makes me laugh is the prefacelift, blue, side stripes ST on sale at a dealership in Essex for £10,995!!!!!
