VW ID.3

I'd say your first port of call would be to see what trade each dealer is offering as a trade. I would imagine you won't lose much at all seeing as someone on the EV6 thread traded in an ID4 and lost €1,000 off what they paid.

Congratulations! I have twins as well but they just turned five so the ID.3 does us absolutely fine. It’s a busy time

was just looking in Carzone earlier and there’s no stock. You won’t lose much I’d say on trading in.

The 1st plus was €40k after grant but I think you bought commercial which was €45k?

I think a private buyer will consider it a €40k car new, not €45k, so your sale will be tricky.

Best to call around. I know I have been quoted from 27k-31.5k on the same model (I’ve over 21k on it). The 27.5 was the Tesla offer and they are renowned for giving you a shíte offer.

Also remember that there will be little to no negotiation on the new car. So the dealer may give you a low ball offer on the trade in, but actually give a very decent discount on the new car. So look at the total package.

I’ve done this out in the country, but I’d say as the car will more likely than not move quicker in Dublin/ Galway/ Cork that you might get a better deal going through there.

Changed my Bridgestones on the back at less than19,000km. Car bought last July

Michelin Pilot Sport 4 wear pretty well if you can get them. Expensive but might work out better value in the long run.

Slight damage on 2 wheels due to bad packaging on delivery.

€675 new, selling for €400 ONO.

with the talk about tyres , is it worth switching front to back back at some mileage 12-15K?

I rotated tyres at 10k and now at 20k should do it again. Have ab 5 mom on all tyres at the moment.The only only problem is that I have to pay €20 a local tyre fitter to swap them as there no spare tyre or jack supplied with the car. I have a jack from my golf rated to 1.1t and I could buy 2x 2t stands from Lidl for ab €15 but I think it’s not worth the risk.

16k up on mine,continentals,still heaps left easily pass 20k by a good margin.

This will be the first time I've even managed that kinda mileage....

Thanks for posting that. When I signed up for it with the dealer, they said it was 4 tyres. Now I see in the paperwork, it's 2 tyres and they didn't bother to mention the difference. It is not worth the price if it is only 2 tyres. The Bridgestones sell for €130 each. How is €648 a reasonable price for this?

Now I have to go plead my case.

Any idea when the change was made?

Hi

My id4 has also looked for the service at 15k, my id3 is at 23k and has not looked for the service. I contacted the garage about this and I am still waiting for a reply as the service manager could not answer the question. The service plan states its every 2 years unlimited milage. It also states on the paper work fir the top tier you get 4 tyres so if you have paperwork to say 4 tyres they will have to honour it

I'll check in with my dealer on Monday. I was also told 4 tyres, and the brochure I was sent in June when they were doing the paperwork said 4.

I collected in August and at that stage they said that the pricing had changed, rather than €648 for the L package, it was €300 added to the OTR costs, but then €350 to upgrade to the full package. No mention of a change in the tyre situation.
