Post by: tdi_blu on 24 July 2011, 22:34: They need to have some nice mods and touches to make reasonable money other wise in standard form there pennies what makes them good value for money....

Post by: Gavv8 on 26 July 2011, 18:15: Price of petrol isn't helping and the good old mk3 is getting on a bit now, was the same with classic range rovers a few years ago i paid £3000 for one and ending up taking £1200 for it a year later.

Post by: murraymint on 26 July 2011, 18:28: you should just hope that if you hold onto them long enuff they'l start to go up in price again, i sure a few years back you could pick up a decent mk1 or mk2 for next to nothing?? im only guessin tho as im just a youth lol

Post by: dan_apps on 26 July 2011, 20:25: mk1's and mk2's are more desirable in fairness so hold their money better. i wasnt a fan at all until i had mine and even though its not as quick as my mk2 its still nice to drive and easy to work on.

Post by: THE_Liam on 27 July 2011, 09:31: I've just got my 8v GTI as part ex on a 106 GTI that I had for sale for £1100. The Golf has a years test, 6 months tax and drives pretty well, high on the miles and a little bit tatty but a solid car. I got £850 and the Golf, so that's £250 for a car with a full MOT and £120 worth of tax, I can drive it for a year and then weigh it in and it won't owe me a penny!
