Now I know I'm not losing my licence I've decided to go for an Octavia VRS Wagon for my joint work/pleasure/modding vehicle, the Golf has to go. I'd really appreciate your views on where I should pitch it pricewise.

Spec/Details as follows:

Oct 2005 55 plate
Laser Blue 3 dr
Leather
Factory fitted electric sunroof
92,000 miles
FSH Mostly VW
Cambelt & pump done twice, first at 4 years old and then again in July last year when I bought it (85K)
Cam follower July 2012
DV Rev D July 2012
Revo Stage 1
Highline
Multi CD player/armrest
Aux connection for ipod in glovebox
Satnav
BBS Edition 30 alloys powdercoated in satin black, all perfect and unkerbed/uncorroded
Just had VW offside wing replaced under corrosion warranty done by Colbournes VW Guildford
The car is in excellent condition all-round, with no parking dings on the bodywork at all, and the interior is excellent for the year also

Only bad bits:

a crack in the paint on the rear bumper
and the leather bolster on drivers seat requires a £120 pound repair where stiching has come undone.

I'd really appreciate your thoughts so I can get an ad on here and in pistonheads

Thanks,

Ian.

£6500 maybe upto £7000 due to rare colour and nice spec including the sunroof!!

I'd be very interested in your wheels with a perfect set of 17" Monzas in px.
