What would you pay for a second hand Helix Plug and Play kit?
« on: 13 May 2024, 11:35 »
Hi all,

Just thought I'd ask the question and gauge the response for the acceptable price of a second hand Helix system.

They are currently around £700-£800 new online, you can get them cheaper from Germany on eBay but they don't seem to offer postage to the UK anymore.

So what would you pay/is an acceptable price to you in 2024?

Thanks,
K

This is going back a few years but I paid £300 for my old one. I absolutely wouldn't pay £7/800 for one.

Get a contact or a post forwarding service in N.I and you'll get it no problem from Germany.

Hi Kieran,

I just paid £550 for my second hand unit (plus £30 to rent a dongle to code it). I called a VW dealer and found that a brand new one currently costs £650 (but would still need coding).
I looked into shipping from Germany (since brexit German sellers will not post to the UK), UPS wanted £150!!
Hope this helps.
