Title: Thinking of selling up
Post by: absolute on June 07, 2019, 11:51:45 am
I've owned my car for a fair while now. It's great, but i'm getting to the point of boredom with it.

Having just spent thousands on upgrading parts, exhausts, ICE, it seems silly, but i'm tempted to sell it.

Where is the best place to list a car right now with subtle mods?

Agree with @Andy (https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=164) Keep it, you will regret selling it after all that investment. So many want to trade into an Eddy and so many regret selling.

i regretted selling mine.. a year went by and i brought another! unless you're going for a worthy upgrade, just hold onto it.

I’m in the same position, had mine for just over 11 years and have just placed a deposit on a Mk.7.5 GTE advance, but not sure whether to sell the Ed30 or keep it if Electric Thrust and not having to fuel regularly gets tiresome  :signLOL:

All depends on budget,
Mk6 gti/R
Mk7 gti/R
Scirocco R
BMW 135i
BMW 235i
They're all cars I'd be tempted with.
