Sell 12.5 POLO GTI for new 2013 GOLF MK 7

[06eleven]

Currently not much second hand stock of Polo GTI around with low km so price should be good for low km cars with 2 year warranty etc

Hopefully this is the case. Just waiting for a trade quote on an 86 now. Will use this as a baseline and put the car on the market for $28k over the next week or so. Just signed the contract for the 86.

Polo GTI will hold its resale value far better than a mid spec golf....
supply vs demand and rarity....

Yeah, it is. Just test drove one (and a BRZ) today. There is a massive difference between it & the Polo in terms of driver involvement. Even at 40kph in the city.

Was the same with Toyota in Melbourne... Subaru was better though. No deposit required.

One thing that peeved me with Toyota was that they waited until after I'd signed the contracts and paid a deposit to tell me that they don't generally place the order with the factory until after finance has been approved where the contract is subject to approval.

Was. Not. Pleased. They've told me that it will be ordered after I said that was a deal breaker. Who organises finance 3-6 months before delivery? Especially when you have no idea how much you'll get for your existing vehicle.

Serious? That's crazy. Toyota know they have a gem on their hands but they don't have to act like *****s because they know there's such demand. Will drove people away from buying their bread and butter models. Bad move.

VGA wasn't much different though. Although they were happy with a couple of conditions like that.

Went to another Toyota dealer & asked if they would agree to a similar clause. The salesman literally yelled at me! This was after he'd already lost me by showing me a 2nd hand GTS for 5 grand above new on the road cost and saying "this is more than new cost, but as its not new we can charge what we like and as there's a waiting list..."
