Title: What would I fetch for a mk5 dsg in parts if I was to break it.
Post by: c8dgy on March 26, 2015, 09:44:26 am
Right guys..

Had my gti a while now and the mileage has just hit 150k.

I know the mileage puts alot of people off when buying but the car is fault free and bean a dream to own.

I had the car for sale last month at 5k and had nothing but time wasters.. (is my price miles off?

Prices seem to be all over the place so I was thinking of breaking the car or would I be better off selling complete.

My question is what would I see back for it.

All panels are mark free recent front end repaint.
150k engine
Dsg box
Typhoon induction
Eibach lowering springs
Checkerd seats tear on driver seat
Black roof lining
Non xenon lights
Edition 30 rear lights
Wheels (been offered 400)
Etc etc

The car has fsh and be heard running..

Yeah I saw the advert. It looks nice but if I were you I'd put the standard wheels and standard front grill back on - will help a lot with getting it sold as those mods may not appeal to a lot of people.

just be patient and wait for the right buyer to come along that will see past the mileage.

So you think 4750 is fair? Just don't want to advertise it at the wrong money for it not to sell...

Would be a shame to break it as it's a great car.
