Ah, the obligatory 'not pushed in selling' line that every tosser puts in his ad.

All he is missing is 'just testing the waters' to complete the cycle of drool.

Thay are very nice cars.

But the way these lads go on about them, as if they're some kind of performance car.

My 156 has a wonky rear axle, meaning it pulls to the right quite badly. It was humiliating to tow it into the yard..... Great for spinning round to the left though!

A good one can be got for not much more than the €650 asking.

Sure a tdi golf with gti badges is seriously hard to get :pac: It doesn't even look that nice I don't know maybe it's just the colour. As for the price well it's beyond a joke.

Seriously though the amount of golfs I've seen gti badges on and the minute you hear the engine start as obvious as anything it's a 1.9 tdi. I really can't see the point of it.

And don't forget the mythical creature that is the S4 TDI.

There is a definite trend there one has to admit.
But a nice, polite person that is fully anchored in reality with both feet would not advertise their car in such a manner.
When I advertise a car its as many pics as needed, all the relevant info, phone and email and nothing else.
Anyone who throws abuse at people already in the ad before even meeting anyone has got to be funny in the head and should be avoided In general, nevermind for business.
Plus I think they're usually cranky because the only people who will do business with deluded nutters is other deluded nutters, so they are angry, because they only meet deluded nutters.

It's overpriced I will admit but I assume you know that those GTI badges aren't just a DIY effort? The 25th Anniversary model GTI came with both petrol and diesel engines, with a limited number of each being made.

Have to say I never realised that. I assumed they were a DIY add on. In that case there fine in that car. Its more the mk5 poverty spec 1.4s and 1.9tdi with GTI badges stuck on them which were clearly a DIY job and I know there was a gt sport edition in the mk5 I'm not talking about them. Same thing with sticking a gt tdi badge on a 1.9 tdi 105 bhp I really just don't see the point. Whatever is on it from the factory is fine but changing the badges to try and make the car something it's not.

Oh I agree with you 100% on that one! It is quite amusing to rebadge in the opposite direction though, like my brother who stuck a 520i badge on his M5 :pac:

BTW that Anni in that condition with the spare set of brand new wheels is probably worth €7k or thereabouts as long as it checks out ok.
