Thats still too cheap as they will knock you down from that!! As said before £4250 to take £4k if I were you.

I have actually had a ride in your car (you took me to the cash point at the Swindon meet) and can say it is one tidy example!!  :wink:

prob is will it sell at that price as dont really want the car sat in the garage for 3-4 months!! is £3850 a more realistic price not dropping to anything below £3700? for a quicker sale?plus im getting hammered in the 'for sale' section for increasing the price lol, but like everyone has said £3400 is to cheap so its at £3850 as of now

He certainly did!the blokes who viewed it were brothers and they came down in a reflex silver GTi agu 1.8T slammed on collies and A8 18's looked nice but nowhere near as clean as mine!,his engine bay was filthy lol, the bloke who bought it was gona do similar to his bro with mine so its in good hands!hopefully will stay that way?!,the buyer text me saying thanks and how honest and genuine i was on the fone before he left to buy it and the drive home was amazing!.......i dont miss it as i had fun owning it did 14k miles in 8 months and felt it was time to sell it on whilst there was money still in the car.
