I've had my 55 reg GTi since August 2011, and whilst I still love it (and it is totally standard), I am doing around 15,000 miles every year and to be honest I just cannot afford £60/week just to get to work and back. I need to think about getting a diesel something, not decided what yet, but i'm wondering if I could get a reasonable price for it instead of trading it in. Any ideas on a possible value would be really helpful:
Golf Gti 2.0 petrol 3-door 55 reg in silver - current mileage 121,600 miles
Bad stuff:
Small dent just in front of rear near side wheel arch (it was there when I bought it - apparently it's in a difficult place to have 'sucked' out so it's still there
Drivers seat offside side 'pad' worn through (proper hole)
Good stuff - totally original with full service history
Since I've owned it I have had:
Two new wings (free from VW) last June, while it was in the body shop I had
High level rear brake light replaced and Headlights polished
All new air con components (£1k -gulp)
Passenger door airbag was replaced in 2013 along with associated loom under passenger seat
