Advice needed on selling my Mk 5 GTi
« on: January 08, 2011, 09:46:46 pm »
Hi All

I was wondering if any of you could advise me where the best place is to sell my Mk 5. Due to the imminent arrival of a new company car, I will be selling my beloved GTi  (2008 Black 3-door with full leather, tinted windows, Mk 6 shadow Monza's, Revo Stage 2, Milltek exhaust)

Due to the level of care and attention I have given it over the years, I want to see it go to a good home (I know I shouldn't care about these things, but hey !) and want to avoid the tyre kickers / dreamers who are just going to waste my time if I go through Autotrader or something similar

Thanks in advance

Cheers

Grant

Thanks Guys, really appreciated

I have some decent pics on my phone so will download them and post them on here (Is there a seperate forum thread for that or just put it into General ?)

Genuinely gutted about selling it but with the mileage I am doing, it just isnt feasible and the company car option makes more sense  :confused:

Cheers
