MKIV Value?

[Disco_Salmon]

Hi All,

On the market for either a MKIV GTI or A3 8l 1.8T, stock with leather interior, preferably less than 160,000km.

Seeing quite a variance in prices - especially for a golf with leather attracting a premium.

What would you pay?

Yes, it's true that the A3 doesn't seem to command the same price that the GTI does. Generally under $10000 is good. I'd go for less km though.

I would go for the a3 but I'm biased, not as common and a bit more luxurious

There dirt cheap compared to what I paid should be able to get one for 8k

$8-12k depending on kays would be the ball park.
$12K should get something under 100,000Km
I insure mine for $10K because I know I can replace it for that.

I've seen some under $5000 but with 250,000km you'd want a good inspection and service papers.

Food for thought....

Just wish there were a few more for sale at the moment (victoria) to compare.

Thanks mate.

Already tried contacting the owner last week a number of times already - won't pick up, won't respond!

just as i bit of a guide.. I recently sold my MKIV GTI which had the optional leather seats (the larger bolstered ones) and the car had around 150000kms on it for $9k
The car was immaculate inside & out, had been chipped, aftermarket rims, suspension, s3 front brakes, bracing & audio.
Pretty awesome car for the money.

Also, it did take some time to sell.. from what i observed the modded cars were very hard to sell, and probably didnt fetch what it deserved.
Im sure it could have got a lot more if it wasnt modded as much.. a lot of people just see it as a bit off-putting and therefore only appeals to a very small minority.

love that front grill

apart from leather standard, how/why is the A3 more luxurious ? thought they were on par
