Selling price help!!! 1995 GolfGTI 2.0L 16V
« on: 25 January 2011, 18:55 »
Hi all, im wondering if anyone could help.

Iv been thinking about selling my car recently, and upgrading to the mk5 gti turbo charged engine.

I'm wondering if anyone could give me a rough asking price I could put on my car . .

It's a MK3 Golf GTI 2.0 16V 1995 (Engine code : ABF) Dragon Green
History:
New back box about a year ago
New springs all way around
New windscreen about a year ago
New passenger side electric window runners and motor
2X New ABS sensors fitted this year
2x new rear break discs and pads for last MOT
New Rear Gear Box Engine Mount 3 months ago
New passenger side front wishbone and ball joint
2 oil pressure switches changed
Ecu temp gauge changed
Recently changed battery (Was second hand but is working good)
4 good matching tyres
New rear wheel bearings - changed when new break discs fitted
All welding was done for last MOT - Had a whole new floor pan fitted for passenger back (Not a patch job)
Ummm thats it i think!

I think the only problem is it's mileage, on 167,000 odd now!
But the engine is still running fine!

If possible could someone give me an offering price for the car with - and without an MOT. The current MOT is up on 30th April, But if I would get a bit more money for it with an MOT i will put a new MOT on there.

Recently had a new air filter, oil change, oil filter change and timing belt change (basically a service lol)

If anyone could give me a rough idea it would be much appreciated

Any other details wanted please ask!

Many thanks :)

Not worth much wothout mot mate. Scrap value. Have a look through the ads on here, ebay, autotrader etc etc and you will have an idea of the value.

Forgot to mention - Comes with 2 keys . .

And also the lock on the boot is broke (since before i had the car) Still locks and unlocks with the central locking, but cannot insert the key to unlock it . . .

Also an immobiliser has been fitted

And have all the receipts from years back!!

Ahh brill! - will have a quick look through them all now, was hoping that there was a couple of keen car collectors out there who might enjoy to do up cars and re-sell lol

There probably is someone on here who would want it to do up mate but I wouldnt expect much cash that way. To be honest, Im not really sure what theyre going for at the minute, prices seem to vary massively, the only problem is the lack of mot really.

Well all the work is done for the MOT really, so think I may as well put a new one on there ready. Only like £40 really cause it will deffo pass lol

Thanks for your help anyways (Y) Iv been offered like £400 - £500 to part ex it, but if I will get more selling it privately, worth giving it a go like ini
