Possibly stripping my Golf :(

[Rhyso]

strip and sell it standard,

i am sure rhyso will pop up with the figures from when he sold his 

in total i sold the car and bits for £4500

Sold the car for £3500 and bits for £1000.  That didn't include the TBE, uprated brakes, wheel spacers or rear anti roll bar

I don't envy anyone trying to sell a MK4 at the moment as prices are at rock bottom 

fraid not n it really pisses me of when you spend all that time on money and no one appreciates its

Welcome to the world of modified cars 

When selling on, no one wants a modified example, unless you happen to find someone whose looking for exactly what you're selling.

I had more messages about the bits on my car rather than the actual car itself despite all the positive comments I got about how it looked and how well maintained it was........

The 'scene' has nothing to do with selling a car though.  By selling a modified car you are limiting your market considerably.

To maximise your money strip and return to standard.  Offer to do swaps with members in exchange for standard parts if you don't have the standard parts you've removed

I could have sold every single performance part today off my car separately with the amount of interest I had. Just sods law that not one of the 1500 viewers on my ebay ads didnt want the whole lot already on the car. Im not too fussed really because a majority of the money that went into mine was labour and maintenance parts, I owned and enjoyed the car for a year and a half, paid £1000 originally for it completely standard and helped a mate out with a nicely done Golf for £2000. If I get another Golf Im definitely gonna buy one already done! DC2 ITR FTW.........

How good is the standard ko3... any play, cracks etc and what milage has it got?

[vwfiend]

No cracks bud, slightly less play than the Ko3s that I replaced it with (next to none at all) and about 60-70,000 on it. I had a receipt from VW Vindis for the replacement from first owner that current owner now possesses. Ill give it a good clean up and double check for you bud
