Is this a decent offer?
« on: 15 March 2009, 10:39 »
Going to see a car later today....

VW GTI Edition 30 DSG
Registered August 2008/08
Full UK Spec - so balance of VW warranty remaining
Only 4000 miles

Options added:
Tinted Glass/Rear Privacy
Front Armrest
MFSW
Highline
VW Bluetooth kit

1 previous owner from new.
Purchased in August 2008 for just over £25k

Hence the car is pretty much brand new.
Its currently listed at £20k, but Im pretty sure the seller will drop to £19k if I try.

Is £19k a reasonable deal??

The fine art of diplomacy is telling somebody to "fcuk off" in such a way that they actually look forward to the journey....

Cheers. I wouldnt mind a Pirelli but I really need a 5 door ;)
This is one of the very few ED30's Ive come across with the options Im after, and being a 5 door. Just wanted to know if the price was about right....
He has it listed at £20k, and has another viewer this afternoon after me, so not sure if he'll budge on price yet....
I'll let you know how I get on.... ;)

Pressure him at £19k and see what his reaction is. If you don't ask, you don't get :wink:

If he is willing to let you walk away for the hope that "the guy in the afternoon!" will make a better offer then it is up to you whether you want the car enough to offer more :cool:

Sounds good, not a fan of the pirrelli at all  :sick:

If its the right one and you have enough go for it. A cars worth what someone will pay, not what everyone else is selling at or how much parkers says. I paid what i thought was right for my car, regardless of what else there was or there prices as i knew it was the right one!
