Pain in the ass - good luck with moving it before you go mate.

Massive pain in the backside.

Was thinking of passing on the car to the old man, but he is in the market for a GTI.

Then the thought came of getting this car traded-in while he buys a GTI, but I will be left more out of pocket as the dealer wont be as accomodating with the price compared to a private sale.

Ive posted the car on the sale forum.

Hopefully someone notices it and contacts me, considering for 30k you are getting a almost brand new car (4000km & 3 months old)

118TSI + Chip = More power than a GTI.
Fit it with Detroits and he won't even notice the difference.

The trade in sounds reasonable.
I would call the dealer and see what they would offer.
They should be pretty good with it since it's only 2 months old or so.

[Timmy10]

I think they would give me around 22-25k for trade in, which is average.

Might call the dealer.

Ive got my car on finance, so that why I would love the money to just pay the company. In the case of trade in, i dont think they will pay me the trade in with money.

Sorry to bring back an old thread.

Initially my travel overseas got postponed, but now they are back on.

Departure date is June, so I have some time to move my Golf.

Its done around 11,000kms now. Going to be sad to let it go, but I may aswell start looking for a new home for it so I dont leave things till the last minute.

Wonder what price it can fetch. I still reckon 30k but i could be wrong.

Hey guys,

I have had a change of circumstances and it is currently looking like that having the MK6 GTI (which I waited 6 months for last year) is something that may need to be sold.

I am looking at travelling overseas this year for quite sometime and do not see the point in paying off a $13,000 car loan while im travelling.

So this is what my car has (yes I am aware that options dont account for much on a 2nd hand car)

Candy White
DSG
3 Door
Sunroof
Park Assist
Adapative Chassis Control
Media Device Interface
Sat Nav (RNS 510)
Bluetooth (9WZ) (forgot what its actually called, but its the proper VW Kit with voice dialling, stored phone numbers on the RNS510 and works with the white screen inbetween the speedo)
Reversing Camera
Euro Plates

So pretty much every option except Leather, Dynaudio and Electric/Heated Seats and Xenons.

Currently sitting on about 10,000KM

MK10 model year, I got it in August 2010 (after a 6 month wait).

Looking at carsales for victoria, the asking price for GTI's with low KM's is around the 45K Mark.

Would I be best to be asking for this? or is it too much, too little?

Thanks

usually you'd loose 30% first year.

it's tough call to give opinions on how much to sell, but preparing and keeping your car in showroom conditions inside out and good photos on the ad, will help you sell it easier.
