Title: Selling edition 30
Post by: ravydav on 22 April 2009, 19:53: I am thinking about selling my gti and was just wondering how much I might get for it. Its an 07 black 3 door manual edition 30 with 28k on the clock, just about to get 30k service done and 4 new tyres. It has mfsw,cruise,cd changer head unit, ipod prep(not that it was any good, went back to using old fm transmitter thingy) and parrot hands free.

Any help would be great.

Post by: qureshia on 23 April 2009, 19:50: Donâ€™t mean to sound mean but it is unlikely to make £15k in private sale ! :embarassed:

If you WANT to sell it would need to be below £14k perhaps £13,500

Motorpoint are doing brand new ones for £18k (2 years warranty, zero miles and 2 years newer for 20% sounds too smaller a gap)

If you need any custom install advise fire away as Michael Holmes (Home Building and Renovation Chief Editor and judge on Britains best homes) is a client of mine and I did all the tech in his new build.

The Motorpoint cars have been stood for over a year and only come with the balance of the 2yr warranty (which is now less than 1 yr). They are also imports which could affect the resale and have no extras. They are still overpriced IMHO.

As for Glasses guide and auction figures - they bear no resemblence to reality. Use autotrader and pistonheads to get a good feel for the market.

Took me over 3 months to find the right car at the right money which I did in February.

Look on the sites on a daily basis & be prepared to jump....quickly if you see the right car.

You will most certainly find a huge ammount of help & support on this forum, that there is no doubt
