According to Parkers, PX is ?9965, Private Good is ?11,130, Dealer would sell for ?12510.00

I was told that a dealer will always want to make ?2k on a car that's out of warranty and 3/4 years old

 

[johng]

A dealer would list your car at ?14000 if not more. Take a look on autotrader at their prices!

 

[jamesmac]

i was hoping on getting 11,500 - 12,500 for it, realistically i think i might get 10,500 - 11,500.

i'm looking at a clio 182 tomorrow, and a friend that works for renault will give me a 16% discount on a new one.

 

[hornetrider]

you're thinking of swapping an anni for a Clio?! you need your head read mate, thats just c-c-crazy talk [:O]

 

[Tony D]

James..... why do you want to get rid of it? (If you don't mind me asking that is?)

Just so you know, in mid January I was offered ?13,750 trade in for my car agianst a new Golf GTi - total vlaue of the new car ?24k. Mine is a reflex silver petrol Anni, Sept 2002 / 52 plate, with 22k miles.

Cheers

Tony.

Keep the anni......you'll regret it(in my opinion anyway!![])!!!

 

[jamesmac]

well i've been for a drive in the 182 and it wasn't too bad. dealership would give me a 21% discount on a new one if i buy one. but once i got back in the anni i knew i would miss it. so on monday i have to Vw and i will see about extended warranty instead!!!

 

[Tony D]

You know it makes sense!

Does anybody know how much it costs to extend the warranty??

 

[spencert]

The level of cover and price varies depending on age/mileage, but the last time I bought the VAG approved warranty to cover the period 4-->5 years it was ?455, expensive, but worth it in my case because the gearbox fell apart at 50K, I got a brand new one no questions and a window regulator fitted, combined cost much more than ?455.

i'll tell you on monday how much it would be roughly.

 

[annidal72]

James,Do you know if the wheels will be covered by the extended warranty?If they are it will be well worth it IMO!

 

[jamesmac]

i asked Vw head office last year about the corrosion issue after warranty and they said they would take on corroded alloy claims after the 3 years were up, but i'll try and get them to put it in writing for us so we have something to fall back on.

Listers Stratford offered me ?11,500 for mine. (02 plate 18.5k on the clock at the time) That was in px for a 22k R32 tho. I think that was a fair price for mine but the R was over priced. Best way to go is private. Lol you can pitch up againt me and tony in the classifieds! lol Pob
