Signed the papers!
« on: 20 March 2009, 11:41 »
Went to the stealers yesterday and saw the car in the flesh, managed to knock him down to £12600, nice! car is looking good, couple of scratches behind the door handle, previous owner must have been blinged up. little sratch above rear drivers side arch but other than that clean as a whistle! Have to wait till next sat to pick her up though....  :cry:

Sweet, cheers, was up for £13.5k originally so got 900 quid off! Defo a buyers market. The stealer said he could go no cheaper than £12800 so i said fine and went to leave, lol, that shook him up and got me my 12600  :cool:

Did you trade yours in against it? If you're getting rid, the vultures in the mk4 section will be fighting over your front valance :grin:

lol, the mk4 went about 4 months ago unfortunately!! Went to a good home though  :wink:
This waiting is killing me! Test drove the GT 170 TDI and the GTi yesterday back to back, both 3 door and reflex silver, parked them next to eachother and gave them a damn good comparison... there was no comparison imo, GTi ftw!!!

The GTI looks much meaner! You made the best choice!

Yeah, thats my story too. Went to the garage wanting a TDi, made the mistake of test driving the GTi afterwards for comparisoni. Game over.
