They dont sell, break it if you got it cheap otherwise you will unfortunatly loose money
Good luck though |
Before this i did have a 1997 Preg Audi A4 that needed alot of work doing on it, bought for £255, fixed it up, sold it on for £550, Deducting parts i made about £150-200 profit. I bought this 206 GTi because it was unbelievably cheap and suprisingly there's little wrong with it. Bought for £650, And i know that these are worth £1200+. So plan is to keep it a few month, put minor bits and peices on it to make it abit better, then sell it on for profit. All goes towards insurance or car fund when im 17 to be able to drive.

Sorry to burst your bubble mate, but £650 is roughly what you pay for an average GTi
Go for and try and sell it for whatever you feel fit mate, i can only but give you luck
Not being a pain but i did pay £150 for the gti i broke.....

Nope you've not burst my bubble, thats actually a fair comment. I am actually going to sell it again in a few months to hopefully make a bit of profit but only time will tell, lol.

If your going to sell on for profit, I would not mod it at all and just get things tidied up like new exhaust hangers. Juat going to be dead money overwise.
