Bye bye GTI
« on: 09 January 2009, 17:18 »
Seriously condsidering selling my Edition 30.

Currently in a part time job and im absolutely skint every month so I think the sensible thing to do is get a cheaper car. I have finished Uni and still looking for a career to follow even when I do get a job I think I will be pushing my spending limits. Im only 22, 23 a week today so there is plenty of time to get my arse back into a GTI in the future.  :smiley:

Im also wanting to get out of my parents house which is another reason why I am looking into selling up. It will be greatly missed (if I do get rid) but it has to be done.  :sad: :cry:

Sensible move mate. Plenty of time to get the nice thing in life especially at your age.

Get a MK2 GTi for now, you won't regret it mate!

Stick her in Pistonheads, sell privately, dont go to dealer , they with offer you next to nothing. Put it in the for sale section on this site aswell as www.mk5golfgti.co.uk,all mk5 owners on there that might be after an edition30.
Sorry to see you go, like has been said, geta Mk2 for the next best GTi  :wink:.

Settlement figure is £17,569.98 so you can have it at that.

It will be on PH slightly more as no doubt someone will try knock me down anyway.

Might look into leasing a car, but I like the power so would have to be something half decent...or spend around £9k on something VAG.

Really dont know what to buy. Was thinking about a Mini Cooper, but like the practical size of the Golf so something of similar size.

Im thinking of more along these lines...



Seen one at a touch over £10k 2.0 TDI 140 with 48k on the clock iirc. Could try bargain him down a little.

webuyanycar offered me £11,805 lmao. Erm...pass on that thanks.

Any toys on the Ed 30?  I am not looking to buy it, but this thread is also an ad, so whats it got?

Best of luck, and has been said - Mk2 all the way!
