Got the B3 arriving in 2 weeks so as Sytners Part Exchange Allowance on the Golf is so Diabolical thought I'd try a private add.

RT that's cheap, I sold my R32 back to the supplying dealer for more than that, with 4k on and a 6 speed manual.

There's to many pre reg cars about and with the suspected credit crunch no main dealers are even bidding me on it
I sold my last one back to the dealer for a lot more than that so thought I'd have no trouble getting shot of this.

Its gonna be a cracker car for some lucky sod! Good luck with the sale.

That is damn cheap!!! I sold my 14 month old one with 10k for £23000. I think they reason that they are so cheap is nothing to do with the credit crunch, but more to do with ;
i) oversupply of the MKV, unlike the MKIV that was on limited numbers and VW have now got greedy
ii) They are in the top emmisions group!!! - This is why I got rid of mine

God luck with the Alpina, I bet it'll be awesome

Now it's really Cheap reduced it to £19995.00 (Needs to go next week although I have had an offer of £1K more than Sytners part ex allowance and that's still below my asking price)

Thanks for your help and advise guys It's been in Autotrader (though a Dealer for over a week) and on pistonheads but without much joy couple of months ago I think I would have had my Hand snapped off so I'm taking it to a Main Dealer Monday and collecting a Cheque for £19250.00 with all the scams and dishonest people about probably the safest.

It is the lack of leather that is the killer, just called my mate at our local dealer and he said they would give £21000 for it with leather or £19k without, but also they would only trade it without the leather not a straight sale.

Stupid really cause you could get it retrimmed in nappa for £1000 and even add the latest touchscreen nav for betwen £500 and £700. This would then be a £26k car.

Minw didn't have leather, so the supplying dealer could harly refuse it on those grounds.

Don't Dealers changed the spiel depending on what there got to sell (or buy)
I think it might be harder to shift without Leather but not £2K difference on a Golf
Bad time trying to shift any Car at the moment but the R32 seems to be one of the worst hit motors over 120 less than 1 year old for sale in Autotrader.

[scooba0010]

They have seven r32 and all nice cars i went in and asked they said it was a difficult time ..WTF does that mean .I personally think they are a very good buy and cheap .

I spoke to him again and asked if that was right, he said yeah, it was a £1600 option to have the leather Recaros and commands a £2k premium which they will pay as it makes it a lot easier to sell.
The guy I know also said his farther in law has been trying to sell his which also has no leather and it is the first thing people ask when calling about it.

Personally I am going off leather, but do understand the need for it as it does help it sell, but cloth is much nicer imho.

[scooba0010]

I wish i had the balls to buy it ,Just ordered my Wife a new gti 3 dr last night .I think i emailed every dealer i know about asking for the spec and price ,I tried vag milton keynes found the exact car in stock in manchester WTF. anyway red leather 18" monza2 .£19400 cash

Proberbly isnt to everyone liking but will compliment the e9x 325d
the mini was just to small ,I have a detailer from detailing world coming on the 24th to sort the mini prior to advertising for sale

What i did find was the dealer in manchester was a diamond even at 630pm after being there all day ,A cheaper car with less discount than a BMW but they treated me very very well ,I have been working under ground in a chamber due to tidal conditions .and was trying to get out for phone access no signal its been a nightmare doing it all by emails early eve/mornings ,But i got 9% discount and the car she wanted for a date on collection of 1 june ,I have to fly to manchester to pick it up it was only 41 quid on BA cheap as chips,only 75 more insurance than the mini as well

Nice car - Manual or DSG?

[scooba0010]

I have opted for manual and cant wait ,My neighbour who works for chandlers bmw asked why not buy a 135i ,My reply is i told you i would vote with my feet after the last two chats about my rusty hubs ,Well fuck me i have seen the same on VAG golf R32 at local stealer .I will have to take the wheels off first week and paint them up before he spots it and explains that it happens to all cars.Any way i have made my point .

I have also found a genuine set of csl wheels with michelin pilot 2 with 7mm tread and he will deliver to me in person so no arguing about marks chips kerbing ect.I should be trying to save some money after buying the GTI ,and still having the mini cooper ,But if they are as mint and 7mm i will have them on my e90 .

There saems to be some confusion with whos car is whos at ours now a days. My wifes x5 and it was my mini and we swapped as she loved the mini i found the x5 to big and bought the e90 ,Now she said my bmw and its your mini so i have bought the Gti will it change again
