advice on 1.8 n/a gti to buy..
« on: 09 June 2011, 17:16 »
basically someone offered me a 1.8 n/a gti for £1450 for my girlfriend, 5 door, really clean in and out (just a tad of rust at the bottom of the door) plenty of reciepts with cam belt done, serviced pretty  regularly, scanned it and a coulpe of minor things have come up (locking modual for centra;l locking) seems to run fine it has 86k on the clock. took it for an mot and went straight throu (other than a couple of bulbs)

is it worth it????  :undecided:

souds good to me. i own a 1.8na and i got mine for 1600 with 83k on the clock and no fault codes or rust so seems about the right price ect.

let her have a test drive if she likes it and can afford it all then welcome her into the dub family :grin:

Seems like a good price with the low mileage!
