Default Auction finishing in 20 mins!! Cheap runaround! 2001 Golf GT TDi PD115 6 Speed

Cambelt and tensioners replaced in September this year. Its had in the last 18 months, new brakes front and rear, new rad, new exhaust amongst other things. I have receipts for this work. It has also had an oil and filter change which I did myself.

It has Xenons, Cruise Control and also a new clutch under a year ago

Aircon works fine, and is infact freezing cold!

Quite a bit of paperwork, old MOT's etc etc

Bodywork is immaculate and a VERY shiny red.

Pretty much all service history.

MOT - August 6th 2011

TAX - End of July

Ive had well over 60MPG in this, so VERY economical!

132K









2k no offers.

Needs a brake pad earth wire sorting and airbag light on. Comes with brand new tyre. No radio or parrot kit.

Good luck!

Cheers Mark, its not going a penny less than 2k though, if you came to see the car you'd prolly buy it to sell on...

Its worth 2450 according to whatcar, and 2800 to sell as trade.

I just need the money at the minute

I actually need something for work as a bit of a stop gap but I am likely to put a lot of miles on it so was looking for one with lower miles.

If the deal was a little bit sweeter i would probably take a chance.

sounds bad as its first with 2k,I have got one to call local in green thats done 120K and its up for £1695.

http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classifi...26ta?logcode=p

Prefer the look of your one but the fact of the travelling and price is stopping me. Could see this one and it be a dog. (which it probably is) If so I will let you know..

The fact that its got no radio aswell and needs airbag sorting does not help.

I dont disagree with you but i can see past some dirt. the fact that its not a gt does not concern me as i just need mpg not speed...

I dont want to ruin this guys thread, The car looks nice and I would be interested but if 2k was that cheap it would have sold instantly.

Im just looking for a deal, Can be in birmingham on monday night possibly too.

I can easily get a £5 radio off ebay, no bother

Reason Airbag light is on is I checked the airbag ECU with a ODB2 cable for faults. Its a manufacturing issue and causes the light to show after it has been interrigated with the software. You can find this info on google etc.

I'm not reducing it anymore than 2k. So if anyone looks to come and offer me less than that for it, it will be a wasted journey.

Pondering taking a loan out to keep it now to be fair, as I KNOW what a good car it is.
