Insurance payout - What to do...

[steviem]

Well, I have received the insurance money for my old 106 that was written off now, but what should I do with it?
I received £910 and have a bit of a banger of a GTI at the mo, any suggestions welcome...

how bad a banger is it? sell it and put all the money towards a better GTI?

[Gambit]

agreed! except by a 16v

You'll see some pics in Dubz projects.
Its not all that bad, but needs the seats for a three door, new rear calipers and some rust patches treated, other than that its pretty good, just need ideas on what to do with my little windfall...

just looked - for me, spending all the money, so say 1250 ish would get you a much much better mk2

Would be nice, problem is, I also need to pay for snowboarding pretty quick, so may be left with more like £500, which wont leave much for me to get done

snowboarding holiday on 0% visa card payable over 9-12mths works a treat for me every year!!

Argh! Dont tempt me...

I would be tempted to get a mint cheap low end 3 door MK2 and reshell the GTI into it if it was me
