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!

Pretty much standard apart from darkened glass on the rear and pearl black paint. Not sure if the heated wing mirrors are standard or not  :undecided:
sorry but my vaux looks far better than the mk5 gti, thats why i bought it  :wink: faster too  :grin:  :tongue:

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.

Yeah, I'm sure you're not suprised at that!!  The issue at the moment of course is that second hand cars (even those which are a few months old) are taking a real battering on used car values.

Glasses Guide trade values do not make for pleasant reading if you're looking to sell..... and dealers just aren't interested in buying back cars like this as people don't have the cash to buy them.

Good luck with the sale and hope you get what you want for it.

Like i said, dont trade up to traders cus they dont have the money to give you what the car is ACTUALLY worth. these figures of sub 12k are total rubbish. Id be looking for at least 15k. (Not sure what reg and mileage of yours though).

for 9 - 10k you will pick a lower milage mint MK4 ani ! After my MK5 ownerships ends I think I will be getting a lesser car as it will be nice to have a bit more money in my pocket for weekends and I really think I will be going back to the MK4 in the form of the anni. I love them.

Remap that anni to 210 and she will be just as quick as a MK5. Ok, she will still have the awful handling of the MK4, but nothing some anti roll bars and a bit of tinkering wouldnt be able to help with.
