Hi and welcome. Shame its not a 16v! :grin:

Why do ya wanna know what its worth? Gonna sell it?
TBH in todays market its worth what someone is willing to pay for it! Just because its got a low mileage dont mean its worth a fortune.
VW Golfs are long lasting and reliable so mileage isnt a high value factor.
Does it have all the late model toys?
Like heated leather seats?

At 27k you have a long way to go before it really affects the value.
I mean somebody may be mad for it coz of the mileage but as I said due to the great reliabily on these cars its not a big issue.

As to value well have seen a 98 with all the goodies but with 168k miles go for a grand.
I mean its red which people either love or hate.
Its only an 8v which is a factor to a lot of people.
I think you would be lucky to get £2000 for it.
