Hey All

second post and yes another mkv post !:biggrin:

I may be in the market for a gti mkv , have a guy that is keen on buying my mps6

any opinions/advice on the below cars would be great.

Have read a fair few threads about what to look out for (thanks shauno and others!) more needing advice on the price i should pay since he sold his immac white gti for 26k ! with timing belt etc already done..

http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars...pb=true&Cr=7&MileageTo=751&keywords=&__N=1216

this one im keen on but as yet hasnt had the 70k service done or the timing belt. Seller advised the timing belt needs to be done at 90k which i pointed out had to be done by age or kms which ever comes first..

http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars...pb=true&Cr=3&MileageTo=751&keywords=&__N=1216

havent spoken to this guy as yet and will be keen to see if the service and or timing belt has been done..

cheers Kris

The one at Annandale seems to be the better buy out of the two as it has Xenons and leather which were about $5-6K combined when new. You can always negotiate a better price on the car stating that the timing belt needs to be done.

Make sure you do a check on the VIN number - I've already been told of two for sale that had major accident damage - a red one with a new rear-end, and a silver one that was a repairable write-off!

Out of the two above the Annandale one sounds better due to Xenon's, etc - and it's further from the ocean, so less salt spray on the car!

If the sale on mine falls through, I'll let you know :)

yea the leather and xenons are a nice bonus .. it also has paddle shift which he reckons weren't standard and cost a grand..

spoke to him this morning and said on the basis that the belt and service needed to be done id take it as is for $24500.. he just smsd and said to meet him half way at $24750..

really want a silver/white one but with my budget being 25k max i guess i can't be too choosey!

guy reckons he is coming to drop a deposit on my car on wed or friday so the waiting game begins!

Paddle shift is standard on all GTIs. I don't know where he got that incorrect information from.
