I've been told its only worth what someone is willing to pay.

I'll give you a fiver, hence thats your question answered.

Erm not really. Has he asked everyone that is interested in a used GTI how much they are willing to pay?? Dont think so :wink:

And how much did I say I was willing to pay for a used GTI ?

So isnt that what its worth ? what someone is willing to pay ? Thats what the question was.

yes .. thats correct. What someone is willing to pay. Not "what VWKev is willing to pay".

Ok catalogue kid my mistake, how many more months out of your rental you got before you buy the GTI your renting ?

I dont think I will be buying. About 13 months left... Im already looking into my next car. :wink:

But he doesn't want to trade it in  :smug:

Stop picking flys.Nobody likes depreciation so stop being smug. He said "Does anyone know of any dealers who might be buyers?"

P.s ill give you 13k trade on that gt tdi you paid well over 20k for  :smiley:


How is that picking flys?
OP wants to sell his car not trade it in. The prices are different. Its hardly rocket science.

I don't mean to break this up but it would be nice if we could leave an argument in the topic it started. By all means debate with each other through pm and on the original topic but it's a bit unfair to the guy who is genuinely trying to find the price of his car.

To return to topic

Mate I had mine up for sale advertised at £20k

25k miles, Tornado Red, DSG, 17 inch, cruise control -that was it.

Had 5 people this week trying to buy it. But I had changed my mind and it was no longer for sale.

(Funny that... not a bite in the first week when I would have given it but as soon as I decided to keep it everyone phoned)

I think if you have less miles and a bit better spec then £21k plus is attainable. Give or take £500 if you want a quick sale/ better price but all in all you should safely get over £20k.

Oh and when I was considering trading it in every garage I went to was offering £18k (even VW garages) with the BMW garage offering £18,600. So unless you are really stuck don't trade in!

A dealer will only buy it off you for trade price or even less if anything

Of course you will and good luck with the sale. All I was doing was proving a point, that the retarded 'its only worth what someone is willing to pay' saying is actually full of sh!t.
