A bit pricey?????
« on: March 23, 2014, 08:22:22 am »

GLWS as they say.............seriously though while looking around Mk5 prices seem as erratic as ever £10k can buy you anything from an 05 with low miles up to a decent 57, seems to me anyway that people are just charging what they want.

What the hell. For £15k I would expect Xenons at least.

10K for the car, 5K for the 10" wide wheels... :rolleye:

Prices are all over the place for GTI's and Edition 30's at the moment. Think some people pluck a figure out of thin air and hope someone is daft enough to pay it.

He wants £1000 per picture he took.

I bought a 06 gti 5years ago with 31000 miles in candy white for 15k. He's dreaming.

Kind of put me off buying another at the moment, I'd always be worried sick I'd paid far too much for it.

If I was selling a car for 15k I'd have cleaned the interior up a bit before taking pics.
He will never get 15k for that EVER

Sounds to me like he could be under pressure from the missus to sell it.

"I don't know whats going on love, not one person has called about it"

However if it is serious then wow, its not even in amazing condition, there loads better in the classified on here with better specs and less money.

£15k seems a little optomistic  :grin:
 I have same issues with S3's at moment, prices wanted are fluctuating wildly between £17k and £23k for similar specced cars and mileage!!.Been offered trade-in between £5 and £6k for my black 3 door 06 plate fdsh 76k mileage but part-ex prices are obviously different to a private sale like the one the o.p mentions.

you could get a mk6 from a vw dealer for that price

he probably paid less for that car when he bought it and is trying his luck

Hahahah yeah that would make it an acceptable price


Don't get me wrong, it's a nice car, but when I was looking at ED30s, you could get one with 50,000 miles for £12,000ish!!!!!
