if its a garagre then they should verify the mileage, also you should always get a vehicle check done on it, for 20quid its piece of mind, also aa qill do a multi point vehicle check, ask the garage if they mind this being done, thatll tell you a thousand things if they say they do mind.
check for water in the footwell, leaky door seals.
usual white in the oil filler.
check the shocks.
set off in 2nd and see if it stalls easily.
go on autotrader and look at buying a used car it tells you loads to look for.
garage should offer you a warranty also on this and send it out motd and serviced for a year.
from a garage? thats a bargain then...but this car sounds familiar, isnt this the one someone was on about earlier in week not being a genuine cupra r? just a facelift model!?
It's a genuine Cupra R as i have just done a HPI check on it.

Seems all legite and it didnt flag any mileage discrepencies. Fingers crossed for tomorrow then! My girlfirend will love me taking her to look at a car on Valatines Day
it is cheap and maybe a bargain. Might not be as good a condition as whoever says it is, you never can fully tell from a pic but i don't want to put a downer on things. Might be ok and just to do with current climate etc
The only bit that worries me is the wear on the drivers seat. Mine had done similar mileage when I sold it and from what I remember the seats hadn't worn at all.

Understand what you mean. The wear on the pic is a slight fade on the right side bolster but i suppose it also depends how the previous owner got in and out of the car. Maybe he/she was lazy and slided out rather than lifting off the seat first?!
id say go look at it, also seeing as youve done the hpi check prior to go see it id scrutinise it and look to buy as youll only have to pay for another when you look at another car.
ask the garage about the aa check seriously youll see if its genuinly good.
