Good News GTI Drivers
« on: January 06, 2011, 01:10:17 pm »
Prices are up in this months guides across the board on mk5's as demand outstrips supply with some cars increasing by as much as £425. Older cars 2004/2005's are fairing better than later 2009/10 cars which have been lucky to maintain their prices  :happy2:

3&5DR GTI's up by around £300
Ed30's up by around £425
R32's up by around £425

Considering the average monthly drop on a MK5 is between -£200 and -£400 its nice to be on the other side of the fence for a change

:signLOL: :signLOL:  it means your car is worth 300 more when you come to sell it actually and yeah im responsible for the financial markets crashing with my rumour mill   :stupid:


Not many cars have done well this month, January is predominately the hardest month in the Car Trade and in relation to the rest of the car market the GTI is increasing in value where others are falling...... says something to me but of course im just "daft", im not global economist such as yourself.  :happy2:

Everytime I've ever part exchanged a car and gone in with various guides valuations the salesman always says "that what they are there only guides!"

I think they make up a price according to stock, time of the month (oor err!) and targets :signLOL:

Don't shoot! :fighting:
