Im getting desperado!
« on: 16 February 2006, 18:11 »
Guys i sold my Gti mk4 over a week ago. Im looking on ebay and auto trader and nothing is taking my fancy! They are all going for obscene prices and have really high mileage. Got a budget of between £5500-£8000

Can you peeps give me some links to used Tdi's for sale! Looking for a 5dr Black Gt TDI 115-150..................Cheers guys and gals

I have just bought a GT TDi 130, 2004 (53 Reg) with 17k on the clock, nothing wrong with it had it HPI checked.  Guess for how much?

under 10K I'm guessing  :undecided:

got a feeling you've been a right jammy so and so and probably picked it up for next to nothing  :tongue: :laugh:

Keep an eye out on pistonheads.com. Sometimes stuff comes up on there. Short of that check out exchangeandmart.co.uk.

Hope this helps!

 :grin: @ Rhyso - Nah, not been as lucky as you think - I got it for under 11k but I thought that was good, cause been looking for a black tdi 130 for ages with low milage and this was the cheapest i seen for months.

Yeah 1 year left  :grin:

Im picking the car up on Sunday - no fancy options just the bog standard GT TDi trim  :sad:

I see you got a TDi 130 as well - what spec u got?  Have you done any mods to it, if so what? Im interested to know.

only picked mine up 2 weeks ago  :grin: :grin:

it came with a Single CD player above the HU
and the upgraded 16inch alloys

have a read of the post i made - also contains the palava i had when i picked it up!!  :laugh:

http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=33477.0

gonna pop to the stealers to find out what the codes mean cos I'm not enitrely sure whats standard and what isn't.

So in regards to modding I've not really had the chance!!  :grin:

First thing i think will be to get the VW Phatnoise system so i can play all my cd's in the car - check out www.phatnoise.com for more details.  they are on egay for £185 rather than paying the £600 the stealership want!!  :shocked:

then save up a bit of cash and maybe get a remap.....not sure yet!!
