    Don't get me wrong, lovely car, 3.2 V6 is a real engine, very low miles at 32k, but its at least double the price of most other v6 GTs.

    That's for sale a good long while now, you'd want to be mad to spend that sort of money on it.

    Seller needs a reality check

    If I was after after a "low mileage" and "rare" 3.2 V6 there are plenty of better cars out there like the example below ... cheaper and 2 years newer :rolleyes:

    Different engine, different car, different class... I could go on but I'll save it.

    They're not comparable.

    I don't want to hear you lads whinging again about the price of cars until you consider what we put up with here in Oz regarding "Euro" cars...

    http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/bracken-ridge/cars-vans-utes/2000-audi-a4-sedan-great-fix-up-car-or-spare-parts/1019859180

    "I am selling my beloved Audi A4 1.8L Turbo 2000.

    Comes with Sunroof, New Audio Sony Head Unit with USB and Multicolour display Airconditioner still works Power Steering Automatic Sunroof and Windows Airbags

    If you are handy on European Cars this car would be reasonably cheap to fix as labour would be free.

    Found problems that need fixing.

    - Battery is flat from not running for a 2 months but just needs charging.

    - Automatic Shifter is stuck in Park

    - It seems to have lost its power slow start off the lights but once past 60km it runs normally. Noticeable going up a hill also you really need to floor it. mechanic said it could be a valve as you can hear air noise when you accelerating.

    - Possible blown head gasket

    - Small water leak when it rains seems to be coming from where the pedals are and goes to the floor behind the drivers seat.

    - Seems to overheat a little when stationary at the lights but when driving temperature is normal.

    - Warning lights for the park brake and abs always stay on even if the park brake is not being used and abs is working

    - No instruction manual or logbook

    ______

    The car runs once someone fixes the shifter and charges the battery and the other fixes need fixing to get it back to its full capability.

    It will need to be towed away. It still registered at the moment but will come unregistered and with no number plates.

    Apart from the problems it ran beautifully when it was working, easy to drive, and great handling. I just can't afford to fix it right now due to my house mortgage although I believe it will only take 2 grand to fix but if you are a mechanic I'm sure you can fix it for far less.

    I have seen this car type being sold for 9000 - 12000 so there is profit to be made.

    I do have the original head unit that was replaced by the Sony one and will keep that in the car.

    JBL Amplifier and Subwoofer is sold seperately but can work out a deal if you want them left in it.

    Contact me for an inspection if needed or make me an offer."

    If you want to show how over priced the Alfa is (which I agree it is) you should post another V6 GT, not a Golf 32.

    Both are V6 hatchbacks, so it's a fair comparison.

    You reckon? Moat reviews of the Gold 32 seem rather disappointing.

    Why the need to start sprouting rubbish like this at the end of an ad also:
    "This is a car that's not far off the Pace of an M6 yet is much more rare and really sounds amazing and turns heads."

    "This car is being sold for 22,500. It is only being sold if I receive an offer of this amount. No offers will be considered."

    i just offered him 22 grand for his 8 year old car and he told me to piss off.

    in any other country it might be a little more realistic , but in Ireland with a big petrol engine he'd be looking closer to 11k easily


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,302 ✭✭✭Supergurrier


    Lol buy one for under 12k and buy the modifications yourself


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 212 ✭✭mad dave


    I found an m5 from the same year that would SOUND a lot better. http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/cars/4885167:) or may be this http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/cars/4932759 or this http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/cars/4897730. Just three options of cars that are better and cheaper than his. I'm very tempted to ring him to take the piss out of him.

    That's because it's a V10, imo the 4.4 litre V8 can sound just as good if not better with some exhaust mods.#

    V8


    V10
