always bargains to be had, just gotta look for them and maybe travel abit
i got my gti for £1995 - £700 for my trade in (was a cat-c so prob not worth £300 really) then the guy couldn't fit rear wiper arm or fix rear elec windows, so knocked £100 off, already fixed free as mate works in local scrappy
this had 93k on clocks and history upto 80k
