First glance I spotted the rear lights, front spots with stickers on and armour door plates. What else is non original, and who the hell would pay that for it?
-
Mine has spotlights stickers and it did also have door plates but they looked better in the bin lol.
-
I'm all for pushing the price up on MK2's but that's ridiculous.
I suppose the plate might bump up the price if your Superted was your arch enemy.
-
I believe that these prices will become common place, especially that the economy is starting to pick up... seen it all before in the early 90s when the price of an E Type Jag shot up to 70 to 80k and more for the right car, yet only a few years earlier, you couldn't give them away, supply and demand is the name of the game.

What you talkin' bout Willis?
-
Madness :shocked: I guess it is how mk2's are going but £10k is a lot of dosh
-
other thing to think on is how many genuine rust free mk2's are about! aimed at the collector this is obviously.
-
3 years ago you never saw adverts like this. :shocked:
common place now, and lets be fair, its as ORIGINAL as you are going to get these days.
-
Stickers, lights and door guards are all correct for the year. Nice car, is it worth the money? Maybe if you're a collector. If it was me I'd be looking for a mint very early 8v with the small bumpers.

Are you joking? prices look to be rock bottom at the min :sad:are they likely to go up in the summer?
there just seems to be loads out there for £1500 which pisses me off as i paid 2K last march for my 90 8v gti and must have put another grand into it and think id struggle to get that back :cry:
-
10k and not even an engine picture :rolleyes: :grin:
-
£10k and its a poxy 8v too!

Stickers on the spots were never original, only aftermarket grille kits, or later replacement lights had them.
Rear light are correct for a non-runout 8v granted. I assumed it was a 16v due to it's bee sting. The aerial was a factory option, so I guess the data sticker would confirm that one.
Armour door plates, again were never original. Usually fitted to hide the signs of a break in.

There's no guarantee what you'll find behind the wheel arch extension and rear bumper around the towing eye on this one.
-
Nice car maybe, but for 10k, no thanks.
-
Deffo an 8v. Seats confirm this if they are originals which im guessing they are.

oh yes............. mines not worth 10k though unless someone wants to pay that??
-
I saw a mint white mk2 gti on pistonheads with under 30000 miles and it was only 3000 grand. so I think this guys way over the mark with his price.
