Not a great deal if it still looks like it did when you posted a picture.   What exactly are you selling, ie. History of the car, what does it come with etc.

The white one with the racing ignition switch set up?

About £300 at the most.

It's like idiot bingo.

I'll up X4MGS's offer: I have a couple of unopened packs of pickled onion Monster Munch here.

You can have them and I'll take this abortion of a car off you to save you any further embarrassment and discomfort.

I assure you that this represents a good deal.

WOW - What a deal - Too Rich For Me!!!  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Serious - It's only worth scrap value from what I've seen of the car....

Seeing as your car in it's current state is worth feck all, it's not worth selling it as you would probably end up having to pay to get it taken away.

Why not just buy a decent enough car to do your Scotland trips in, and put the Golf up somewhere until you get the time and the money to build it into the show stopping, fire breathing monster as planned? It would need to be taken off the road at some point in order to carry out the transformation, meaning you would need to buy a second car at some point, so why not just buy the second car now?

If your dreams were ever to become reality, then this would be the sensible thing to do, but like so many others, I don't think that this is ever going to happen. I think that deep down you know it will never happen as well, but we all look forward to you proving us all wrong.

£800!!! Eh?

Have you seen the pics Sam?  :cool:

Considering I paid £625 for my Valver - 91 plate with 167K and No tax but 8 months MOT and a full service history - I think just above scrap value is a fair price for the White Beast!

I think its the use of different sized/type screws that does it for me.

I think you'll find he's stuck carbon fibre stickers over that lot or something since then, so it looks, like, really cool and stuff now.

Was probably worth more before you had it lol

Now = whatever you need to pay someone to take it away
Title: Re: thinking about getting rid of golf??
Post by: RaulCarnahan on 12 January 2012, 14:14
In all seriousness it is only scrap value really.
About £300-400 is what you'd probably get for it.

Where's your scrap man based???? I Need his number!!

£50.00 for a stripped shell

This is maximum I would offer. I'd even slap it in the garage and work it back up to a respectable level again, but I don't have the inclination to do all the body work from the look of it.
