Just bought a VW Golf 1.9 SE TDI for 6000 GBP, was it worth it?

Question

70,000 miles, 04 plate, full service history, HPi clear, 12 months MOT and 6 months tax.

Do you lot think that is worth it?

Answer 1

You should have asked the question before you bought it !

Answer 2

just a tad much,,,but therea belting car,you should have no probs with it...70'000 miles on a vw...its not even run in yet!

Answer 3

Yes. Good investment. 70,000 is negligible for a diesel that has been cared for. Renew the cam belt well before the recommended mileage for peace of mind.

Answer 4

l think personally you've made a good buy as the vw golf is a reliable car with a strong engine, and if looked after properly should hold a good resale price when you decide to sell it on. mileage may be a little steep for a four year old car, but providing its had its cam belt and servicing taken car of, it shouldn't be a problem

Answer 5

I make that a very good buy - I'd have priced it at £7000.

I assume you're not including any part ex figures...

Answer 6

Sounds about the going rate to me.

Answer 7

Maybe a little steep considering the mileage. But if it is in great condition and is what you wanted, then I would say it's worth it.
