How many MK4 R32's are left in Aus

Guest0608 · 25-10-2009, 03:02 PM

Does anyone know this figure? Just out of intrest really! If there were only 200, there must be a fair few in a ditch on a bend, so how many are left!?!

Probably around 185-190...

A lot of the smashed ones that goto auction have been sent overseas!

A few big players strangling the industry, same old story.

If they buy a smashed one here for $15k and someone in Lebanon, or another country will give them $25k, they get sent, with no care as to how many there are here or not.

Also if it gets imported into another country and repaired, it may not be a repaired write off and so worth more.

I follow the progress of most VWs through the auctions and several have just vanished and no-one has the parts!

Given that only 198 were sold, and I personally know of at least two that have been written off in the last 3 months, I'd hazard a guess and say that there are less than 150 remaining...

Yeah I agree with that. It saddens me to think there are so few here but hey...they're here at least

and still alive and kicking.
