Even still, if you dont fit them before you sell, its not guna fetch much. As its hassle to start of before they use the car... :undecided:

might have to scrap it then.

If you sell off all the parts, you will make a good part.
-
yup, you'll make more money than selling it whole because of the rare parts. The interior should fetch a fair bit. But i'll give you £40 and my steering wheel and airbag for yours to start you off :)
-
ok i will have to have a think on what to do with her.might break you will all be the first to know.
-
id fix it and sell as a whole, parts will maybe make abit more but depends if you have the time and space, plus its not the 3.5 version which has the rare interior parts and (in demand body parts like wing mirrors etc) so u wont get much for any of the interior bits...
-
how much do you want for the whole car with the faults ?
-
well i wanted people to give me some ideal how much it was worth.
-
i really like the look of that ... would seem a shame to break it in my opinion :undecided:

At home now rather than work and I can see it's not a mk3.5 lol. It's a tough one really. Well worth doing if you want to keep the car and the faults were the only reason you wanted to get rid. If you really want to sell it then I couldn't say if it's worth replacing the bits or not, i'm leaning more towards not getting them done. It's coming upto summer and the birds will be looking for a drop top to buy
-
i wondered why you were wanting the wheel, i assumed you didnt realise it was not a 3.5 haha..
you can fit a regular mk 4 wheel u know pete :wink:
-
my wheel is worn, can you still get new ones from VW?
-
With a lot of pissing around yeah. Need the wheel, clockspring and some rewiring to get the horn working. Nightmare
-
Yeah you can mike
-
Yeah you can mike
Got any idea on price roughly? just a wonder, its the last of my worries, but dont feel nice on the hands at the top :/
Cheers pete, your a god on the mk3
-
Nip to VW, they still have listings for all steering wheels.. standard ones.. leather ones.. all the colour concept leather ones in all colours.. golf match leather one (think thats the later one)

you must have a good vw dealer as my local place stares at you stupidly asking for mk3 parts!!... i have resorted to using a local vw specialist who orders from another main dealer...
oh the airbag steering wheel number are...gti 1H0419091AF std leather 1H0419091AD1BX and colour concept black 1H0419091ADEGR and it shows they retail at £268+vat for the basic one without the airbag included..
-
268!!!!!!
HELL NO, im leavin my one on then, cheers for the info though.. Thats crzay money!
