Value my MK4 Golf GTI Turbo please
« on: 11 June 2009, 01:44 »
hi all,

Im going to be selling my pride and joy golf in the next week  :cry:, I have checked the advert on Pistonheads and can not really see any that match my car/spec. So can you guys help me with advising me on a price you think I should post it up for  :cool:

The car has been kept in a family previous to me and was only sold due to the fact the wife was preg and wanted a family car  :grin:
So I got myself this nice unmolested and cared for example and it has stayed that way !

Anyway here is the spec........


VW Golf GTI Turbo 5DR 150 BHP
1999 T plate Flame Red
91K with full VWSH - with stamped book - last serviced @ 88K the works done
Solid engine - pulls well in every gear, no crunching etc
12 months MOT
6   months TAX
Red & black recaro bucket seat interior - no marks,rips etc
Heated Seats
ABS
Central locking
Trip-computer
Climate control
Cruise control
Electric sunroof
Electric windows
Electric mirrors
6 disc CD changer
18" Audi RS4 Wheels - excellent condition, no curb marks
Lowered suspension (30mm I think)
Tints all round - fronts are legal
Euro spec tail lights
Clear side repeaters

---IN THE LAST MONTH --
Full front end re-spray - no stone chips at all now ! (I did a lot of motorway miles and she wasnt looking her best, so treated her, all the front end panels wer well blended)
Roof re-sprayed also - was looking a bit dull
2x new front tyres replaced last week, back has 6mm
New standard exhaust
New windscreen (got a massive stone chip grrrr)
New steering rack
New tie rod ends
New ball joints
New brake pads & discs - free pads for life with Kik-fit
Full wheel alignment check
New boot handle (common for corroding on golfs)

The car has been looked after very well in the 6 months I have owned it and no expense been spared. There is no dents or marks to the car, excellent condition for age. I also have a big pouch of receipts with all previous work including niggly lil common problems that have been seen to.

Here is some pictures to visually describe the car - they were taken before the car was re-sprayed, tail lights and repeaters changed........

Okay read your re post,

Did you fully re spray the panels? That would have cost. Bare metal or "Chips way"?
Car looks well otherwise, if your asking i would value £2800, although i think you get more joy from Auto Trader for this example. :smiley:

That's my opinion dude, may be well wrong.

£10 and a bag of Space Raiders.

And in this climate, that's a good offer.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

I would think so yes, better to sell on here / autotrader or pistonheads to be honest ebay is a waste of time.
