Have you tried the autotrader valuation tool stick your reg and miles in and see what she’s worth.

Have to agree with the £4000 comment.
Mines an 06 very similar spec with the addition of xenons and new wings, service history etc and I'd be asking £4K for mine.
GLWS if you go ahead.

Contemplating selling my MK5 GTI also so have just run my cars details through AutoTrader and received a valuation of £5040 for a private sale based on good condition. Mine is an 07 plate with 72500 miles.
@Adrian 200bhp GLWS of yours, prices for MK5's do seem to be all over the place as I found when searching for mine.

I was offered £5000 for my 65k miles one from a neighbour that has been looking for one for months. He has been halfway around the country looking and is convinced there are no good ones around. If your one is ok it maybe worth a little more than £4k.

Do you have a FSH, low miles, non modded manual car? PM your number and I will pass it on. He is based in London but will travel.

My neighbour went to £6k in the end for my one but I asked him to wait until I could find something to replace mine with which turned out to be a little depressing as the mk6 cars I looked at online looked tired. He gave up waiting yesterday and put a depo on a £8.5k Jap import Pirelli.
