Title: How much is it worth..?
Post by: Lynsey on August 21, 2009, 10:06:18 am
Just out of interest  :wink:  wondered how much mine is worth...

He's a 170 diesel, done 17k miles, he'll be 3 years old in November.

Pretty much "standard" aside from the gti grills etc, gti rear bumper, r32 side skirts, r32 rear lights, armrest+ipod, cruise control

1 lady owner  :laugh:

Anyone any ideas... ?

From Glasses guide...

  Vehicle details                                 Valuation details
  Make     Volkswagen                       Excellent condition     £10000  
  Model     Golf                                   Average condition     £8930  
  Variant     3 door Manual                 Below average condition £7850  
  Engine     2.0TD Diesel                      Retail     £11650  
  Trim     GT                                        Cost new     £17822  
  Year/Plate     2006 56  
  Mileage     17,000

That means you are looking at around £10.5k for a private sale, or £9.5k on trade in, assuming its in vgc.

Thats not actually that bad!!!

I bought a Vectra once  :ashamed: - it lost £8k in 1 year!!!

Luckily, I got it tax free so I didnt actually lose too much...(£3K).
