right whats the chances of there being a a mk5 in red on a 02 plate :?:

reason im askin was driving thru the barras in glasgow today and on a side street

there was a red mk5 transit with what looked like a 02 reg on it :shock: :shock:

it looked tidy and had cab marker lights on the roof but was going just a wee bit to fast to get a proper glance at the reg plate

Seems odd why a dealer would keep it lying round for 2/3yrs :?

Maybe it was a private reg that looked like 02?


Mind you, it is Glasgow. Prolly a false plate :wink: :)

thats what i was thinking aswell luke think with it sitting at the barras then its gonna be a market trader of some sort but if it realy is a 02 would that not make it possibly one of the last ever registerd mk5s :?:
