Sign your car over to your dad and tell the bailiff that everything is rented or stolen! Were so alike, it must be romance

Coz your the man! I did it tonight with a liquid guage, I didn't even really want one, I just saw one in the classifieds that someone was tryin to haggle a 5er off (a Fu€k!ng 5er off £100  ) so I thought that that's harsh so I'll buy it     I feel a milltek coming on......

that was me, dunno bout you but a fiver is a fiver in my books.....but hay if you dont think a fiver is much chuck a couple quid my way money bags

A 5er off £100 is not worth saving IMO, in the time it took you to write the haggling post, you could have earned it. It just makes my sh!t itch when I'm advertising something for a set price which states 'priced to sell' and people ring up and say ''what's the best you can do''. Either their lysdexic, or think I would like to give it away. I can't see why anyone else would think differently...... Not having a go at you mate as I have a liquid guage in the post now      Tell ya what, I'll advertise it for you for £110 and in turn you can offer me £105 and you'll think you stole it......

Hi all,

Im starting to look at golf mk4 GTI prices and I was a bit surprised at some of the comments on how much this one was worth.  The 2nd post says £2k.  This is rather not what they are going for?  Worth and actually how much people are selling them seem different.  Obviously there are bargains about (albeit sparsely).  From what Ive seen they pretty much start at £3000 for a 100k golf gti.  Thats just looking on autotrader and pistonheads.  Maybe 4 door ones go a little cheaper and some 120k ones are £2500.  I think youd be lucky to get one much cheaper than £3k in the current market that hasnt done at least 90k.  Which is annoying, but if thats the going rate then no one should feel ripped off...

That's all the car is worth imo,i picked mine up two years ago 78000 miles,expensive fmic fitted and a few other goodies for £3K and most importantly hadn't been mapped.

Indeed, mine may have cost £5k two years ago for a T reg 1.8T.  However it had 24k on the clock, absolutely standard, almost every optional extra and had been serviced every year by VW, no expense spared

  all i said is 95 and you got a sale lol how much do you earn an hour  just difference in op really init for arguement sake i bought a 106 gti (yeah i no its a french lump of sh!te) and some people may think im wrong but i agreed (sort of) a price over the phone that he said he wouldnt move on after the 2 hour drive to go and get it i knocked him down  from a grand to 800  for sum 1 that wont move on the price.....best bit is 3 months later i sell it for 1300 from an "impulse buyer" 1300 was the list price and i would of taken 1000 and made 200 profit instead i made 500 on a shed lol...... in a way i should praise you or people like you that dont haggle as you make me money.  not avin ago either m8 jus bit of banter init dude

Mate, Im normally the worst haggler you'll meet but not from forum members that are tryin to help each other out. I dont enjoy payin over the odds for anything and I enjoy selling things at a loss even less! I love exploiting desperate people, gives me a great sense of wellbeing!      I just thought the guage was already competitively priced, any cheaper and it would appear to be a scam! lol. As for the hourly wage, it was £14 but now almost half due to the offer of a paycut or no job at all. Things are bleak here pal. Gotta thank Lloyds for the generous overdraft though..........That'll learn em     Well done with the 106, did the guy who bought it off you have a bit of downes in him?? Clearly never had a French car before or maybe he just hated himself and friends/family who would be travelling in it! Their so schmall and pokey!
