Good news and bad news.
Good news is that I may be getting a promotion at work very soon.
Bad news is that it means extra driving between sites.
I currently do around 300 miles a week - and with the currently increasing petrol prices it was around the £50 a week mark. That hurt a little, but after driving her I forgot soon after filling up!! lol
If I get the promotion I will be doing a lot more, and cant afford to throw even more money away on fuel. Hence if it does happen over the next week or two Im going to have to let my beloved, beloved, ED30 go - just when I got that damn plaque as well - and get a more economical car - maybe a standard Golf.
Im really cut up about having to sell. Really love this car to bits and Ive taken good care of her - by that I mean even wiping off the exhaust tips after every drive!! But i have to be realistic. The kids need a holiday, could do with putting a lump sum into the mortgage, and the wife would also be happier knowing Im not at risk of killin gmyself every time I drive the car
If i go ahead, I'll be listing around the £18k mark on Pistonheads (currently 16,700 miles). Do you think thats a fair starting price??
The local VW dealership offerred me £15.5k, so I told em where to go!
