Dumb, but I did see in auto trader 2nd hand mk6 GTI's at dealers were basically the same price as brand new (and way more that a brokers price!)
I remember when the R8 was being sold for £30k more than what you paid for the thing. Now I can understand for a car like that, but over the ods for a Golf GTD? It's basically a company car! Mad especially when you can get a BMW 325i for £25 brand new via discounts. The one car that did make me think what i was paying for the golf was a little high was a brand new, new shape E class for £26k That did make me think hmmm.
But came down to a madly discounted M sport 3 series 4 door saloon shape or a GTI 5 door.
Wonder what they will ask for a Golf R (£49k maybe... can get a 2nd hand DB9 or a Lambo Gallardo for that!)
