It's all cars. There's a chronic shortage of used cars.

Rarer/more desirable are definately above the trend line, but it's true of all used at the mo.
MKV GTI | Reflex Silver | 5-dr | Anthracite 17" | Manual | Highline MFD | Cruise | Revision 'D' DV | Dirty Pipes |

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?

Both VW and Audi have a big shortage of cars at the moment. They ceased production of models due to the economic down turn, but now things are picking up, they have limited stock of built cars to give to dealers and management to run as demos and so the cars those people are in now (which would be on forecourts around the country) can't be freed up. It also explains why certian models like the Scirocco and Golf GTi aren't avaliable from factory order until Feb 2010...

Bit of a forecasting problem by the Germans!!

All of this has a knock on effect as people can't trade out of there Mk4's, Mk5's etc as they have nothing to get into....

Used car prices have also gone up as new prices have done also due to the Euro / Pound exchange rate....

£9350 on Wewillbuyyourcar for me and £8810 on Webuyancars so quite a big difference there, i reckon it would still get closer to £10k on the open market though so wouldnt use either!

Just imagine if you had a lease R32 offered for peanuts, and you turned it down?
Bitter and twisted would be just the start.

Thanks for valuing your car.  Your valuation is £14,245* and webuyanycar.com would be delighted to buy your car straight away.

not if they wanted £18.5k with 30k on the clock and knew it had been hammered from cold every morning since the day it was born.

Just done mine out of interest.

Currently at just over 11k miles, and was valued at £18,010.

I bought it in April this year at £18,750 - so not too bad I guess......
