Mk5 gti 05 price guide

[pudding]

Unless it's a mega minter with a tiny amount of babying miles on it, I would personally just use the car as a trade-in bargaining chip on the 7R.  Unless of course you want to hold out for the best possible private sale....but that method comes with dealing with tyre-kicking morons unfortunately.  Depends entirely on your patience and expectations.

If you're not desperate for the max price (and I'm guessing you're not going by what you're looking to replace it with), just get rid of it as a trade-in fella

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.

Did he buy from a broker or directly from a Japanese auction site? If so who did he use?

It was a dealer that specialises in Jap imports. He did show me the advert I am sure you will find it if you google about.

I’d say 4K would get you a quick sale, spec looks good.

Thanks for all the advice and comments. Much appreciated. Ive decided to keep it. Only realy use it at weekends so gonna treat it as an investment. Plan to get it totally stripped diwn and resprayed and get new exhaust etc etc. It drives so nice now and would be silly just to trade it in and lose all the money time and effort ive spent on it.

Probably a good idea, they are great value for how much pleasure they give.
