is this a bargain
« on: 05 June 2012, 00:37 »
well i was at work today speaking to the punters while serving pints and got talking about mk3s with an old boy, he has a golf gti 8v anni replica with genuine fully serviced and stamped every year 80k on a 97 failed its mot last month on a indicator bulb a tyre and the abs light stays on. my shift ended went outside as he was leaving he looked at my 1.6 and said he likes how clean i keep my golf mentioned he was going to leave it in the garden as he didnt know what to do after being given a mk4 by his brother but said i could have it for £200 i have a f**ked 1.4 to scrap anyway as its a rust bucket so should get 130 ish from it so basically im only having to pay around 70 but an 80k 8v with anni bumpers and interior for £200 u reckon its worth it?

If it's pretty clean and tidy and relatively rust free then yeah. Just don't go round shouting that it's an Anni because it's not.  :grin:

If its got the full Anni interior I would rip his arm off as a good condition interior would fetch 200 quid easy.

Annie replica 8v?  what ever next haha

so in a nutshell, a 8v with no MOT

Prob just worth it. if its in very good condotion...


Bear in mind i got a near mint 16 valve GTI with MOT (but suspect head gasket) for £250

  


Not no ordinary GTI....

Even if you bought it and stripped it you would make a profit at that price.  Not saying that's what you should do but if it was the only option. You would make more than 200 stripping it and weighing in the shell.
