The NEW improved, 6r polo Cruise

**Frostee** · 13-05-2011, 05:53 AM

No luck yet. I had one potential buyer however wanted me to drive it to a RACV Inspection Centre in Nunawading sometime this week at 0830 and pick it up at 1630. I said no. Said she would be welcome to have it inspected at my home at an agreed time. Was too much trouble so suggested we call it quits. Haven't heard back. Had another serious buyer here on Monday except he has to sell a car before he can buy. I've given him first right of refusal if someoneelse comes along.

The car is a bargain and in immaculate shape. I've priced it a little over trade-in value. Anyway, am taking it to VW on Saturday for a updated trad-in value. Worst case I'll trade it in when the Polo is ready. I'm philosophical about the whole thing. It's all about the market and if nobody wants to buy in the time-frame you have to sell, then you just have to accept you trade it in, and move on from there.

Never know though, might get some interest this weekend

Fingers crossed for you mate, am in teh same boat with the Golf, but i flat out refuse to accept $5000 as a trade in on it, that's below redbook fercrissake!!

Yeah, thinking of having a feed either at the end or what would people think about grub at the Kinglake pub maybe....? St Andrews road might not be too good on a full tum tum though!

Ok, I've had another couple of pull-outs, our list is now down to below 20. Apparently there was quite a bit of snow fall this weekend just gone so I will DEFINATELY be going for a look-see run next weekend for all of you!

Update on roads, had a look at mountain hwy tonight, there is a couple of resurfacing works going on at the start and a sink that has always been in the road looks like it got super bad because they have installed a temporary roadwork traffic signal. On a happy note, they have been putting Tarmac on the uphill side of the road so the cyclists and motorists can finally share the road safely

Ok everyone, so far it's myself and Gti Dave for next weekend, this won't be a full on blast, it's more to see what the roads are like and if it's safe so if people that are feeling a bit apprehensive or won't have their 6r polo yet, please feel free to come along

shoot me a pm if you're up to it
