swapping my mk1 for a vento

[Golf Houso]

Yep! Your precious Mk3's aren't THAT cool, Houso.

The last receipt for my VR6 was 14k that wasn't that long ago either, and you really wouldn't want to see what 1 year old caddy's go for at auction believe me

No matter what condition it is in I'd still see it as more unless I was a enthusiast.

Either way when I sell the mk1 I want 6k for it and I won't settle for less

The last receipt for my VR was $45 k so maybe I win

Exactly, its pointless to try to determine the value based upon the last receipt, heck your VR6 doesn't even run !
A nice Vento is around 7k, and almost all are auto

Even good Mk1s dont sell. Everyone wants one for $1000, and will then spend another $6k to get it up to scratch. Its easier to just buy one for $5k that has had $10k spent on it, but most people who want a Mk1 dont have that kind of budget.

I can think of lots of better cars you could get for $6k.

Sorry for the hijack Wabit. Sell your Mk1 and then buy a Vento, but there are bugger all out there...

Either way as is I'd still sell my VR for 12k and some one else can finish it!

Dom get the mk1 up on carsales for drug money it'$ going to take time to get the right buyer. I sold my mk1 VERY easily but circa $2k for a good 2 door is an easy sale.

[WABIT]

u blokes dont get it, the car was sold for 8k in MAY '08 (thats more than what they were NEW!!), the mk1 is 32 years old, id like to see any mk3 sold for anything close to that when they turn 32 .....

this entire thread is some kind of sick joke, right?

x2 on that one...

I don't think I've ever seen the ''appeal'' of a vento. I (am entitled to say this!) think they're just stupidly proportioned, and need the boot chopped back off.
