Hehehehe, good luck mate  - I'd consider it a downgrade swapping my GTI for a VXR  :surprised:

book figures are 240bhp, but nurburgrings have full remus, and many have seen figures past 260bhp tbh. I need the money to pay a few bills off.

Nice car mate!  :happy2:

I bought an 05 plate with 70k on today for 7.5k  :confused: It was for one of my drivers direct from the leasing company but still a damn good price for a well specced car!  :happy2:

You are looking at a slightly older car for a straight swap mate.

My 08 ED30 has covered 6600 miles, and has a few extras, and if I was to swap I would be the one with a few £ in my back pocket!

Nevertheless, best of luck with the trade.

....Mine's an 05 with almost 70k miles, but it ain't for sale!! I wouldn't even swop it for a new Mk6 GTI [My looong review is nearly finished!].
