guys

i was going to look at the below car saturday with all intentions of buying it.

http://www.pistonheads.com/SALES/1355411.htm

it has everything i want

black
sat nav
19" rs4 style wheels
38k on the clock

and at a price i can afford :-) £15k is my max

i had arranged a veiwing to buy look/buy the car on saturday and when i rang to say i was going to be around 20 mins later than i had arranged i was told they are no longer selling the car due to the person they were selling it for is no longer selling it (bummer) totaly gutted to be honest.

so i thought no problem keep looking

but i cant find another in black with the same spec (sat nav 19" rs4 alloys)
and yes i want a 2.0 T FSI S line Special Edition

i found a 2007 with 18" RS4 wheels and sat nav but thats 16.5k
been offered a black one with standerd wheels and no sat nav for 14.5k

my question is was this car priced to low to start off with or will more like the one i was looking for come along at that price with around the same miles and spec

totally gutted as i got the loan in place to buy the car now have no car to buy and really cant find anything like it (HELP)

The price looks ok to me.
I paid £13600 in a private sale for a 2006 Tfsi Sline Special edition - and mine is a quattro with 33k miles on it.

2 differences between mine and the one you put a link to. My leather is two tone grey with Sline embossed on it, and I've got standard 18" wheels.

I found plenty when I was looking so they are out there - you just need to keep looking mate.

If its any help those wheels are going to be aftermarket addon. Certainly did not come from the factory like that.
Never seen the two-tone volterra seats in that shade either. Only other option is that its the Über rare Valcona two tone leather with silver inlay (that looked white). There is probably only a handful of cars made with this interior like this as it was a £2000 option over the standard volterra leather!
The options you want are quite rare. You can always retro-fit the wheels and Satnav if necessary.
