Post by: ifti on 18 March 2010, 13:09
With the extra miles Im going to be doing at work, and the fact that we want to buy a bigger house soon, I need to be realistic now and cut back.
Hence the car needs to go  :cry:

Cruise?

Should be worth about £16,500 as a private sale.

No way - I was offered just below that from a VW dealer - so on a private sale its worth much more then 16.5k!

Hey since I now do the school run looking to change my ED30 Manual for a DSG.....

Are you  1st owner?
Title: Re: Selling my ED30!!! :o(
Post by: ifti on 24 March 2010, 09:09
Im the second owner - purchased when car was about 7 months old. First owner was an enthusiast who owned several luxury cars, including the Aston and the Lambo I saw at his house! Hence he just didnt use the ED30 for what it was intended for (was for his son, but his son never drove it - why would you when you can borrow your dads Aston DB9!!). Car was also garaged by him - so has been garaged for all its life!
I'll PM you with further details, so I dont derail the thread too much!

Just keep it and bargain hard for your new house. 

Unless the real reason you are selling is that you are not really happy with the K04?

Do you think my asking price is fair?

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1487174.htm

I think its in line with others on sale of a similar spec at the moment.

One dealer has offerred me £16k..........so I should be able to get at least £17k private shouldnt I?
He said he would probably put it out in the court listed at £18k if he got it off of me......

I've had to drop mine more and more, but at least its generating 'some' interest at last!

I think yours is priced well, and good luck with the sale.

Had a call from VW today - they are sening me the plaque.

What they dont know is I already have the plaque!! The lady told me it had been made and was about to dispatch!! So looks like the new owner of my car will get 2 plaques, and can decide what to do with them! lol

You wait ages for 1, and then 2 come along together!!
