• I have a feeling that whatever I do is only going to buy me another year and I''ll constantly be thinking about what is going to fail next. Not ideal with a little'un in the car.

  • Serious advice: Put it on eBay with a brutally honest list of faults and NO RESERVE clearly stated in the title. Everyone thinks they will be getting a bargain and will bid it up to the exact market value or a bit more. I bought an a A4 for £2k, 2 years later the gearbox failed (no reverse) and I sold it that way on eBay for £800

  • Good advice. I sold my 205GTi like that. Gave the buyer 5 litres of water and 5 litres of oil for the 60 mile drive home - and he would've needed all of both. He was delighted. Very positive feedback, much happy purchaser. And I was a few weeks away from scrapping it.

  • Thanks again for this. 9 days left on the auction and it's already up to more than the online scrappers were offering. 7 bids from 5 bidders and 47 watchers.
