I was thinking of selling the bits for at least £800 then returning car to normal. Then sell that for maybe 600 for a quick sale... easy money.... ok, to keep @Rich happy. I'll pay a grand with everything. So which bits are worth £800??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LR5V Posted June 29, 2019 Report Share Posted June 29, 2019 teddies have a certain kitsch cool about them, especially when re-engineered: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sausage Posted June 30, 2019 Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 How are they balanced? Do they have more meat on the back of the head area? They are a very marmite wheel and i fall into the disgust camp on them but those splitties do make them easier to stomach... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably with a lot of lead! Dont know how much metal they have - understand they machine off the lip and barrel to accept the split dish and barrel form behind, seen quite a few 80's 90's OEM wheels tarted up like this, the Teddies are a extreme but poor example, early smaller rims are ideal leaving space for the dishes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rrdoctoruk Posted April 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 Hi Sarah, service history good as I have serviced it myself every 5k, it is a sport tdi so has the gti interior abs brakes,electric mirrors and windows, mot till august, it will come with a set of front windows that were tinted to match the back but never fitted, also will come with a stealth shelf with 6x9 speakers fitted, also there is a tdi tuning unit fitted if you wanted that aswell. the engine was changed at approx. 195k with an engine that had done 80k, the reason it was changed it or the car had a bad vibration which we thought was the gearbox so changed both, at the same time a new clutch was fitted and the cambelt was done at the same time, the vibration was still there and believe it or not it was actually the drive shafts so had 4 new cv joints fitted and that cured it instantly!!!!!!! still have the original engine and box complete, total mileage is 215k at the moment with it just had a service on Saturday 11th april, my daughter has had the car since 139k as we bought it in 2015 to replace a sdi, have pictures and can send them to you no problem, IT NEEDS A CLEAN, only now selling as she needs something a little bigger otherwise she would keep it as it is so reliable and is no trouble being easy and cheap to work on, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephenmacleod Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 700 is strong money for that in that condition and mileage. Give it a proper good clean and polish, and you may get a bite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mk2 Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 You'll find out one way or another so I may as well be honest. Answer: Yes. They'd look lovely on one of my Mk2s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously value is subjective and condition matters a lot, tyres etc. I'd probably value them at around 200-250 judging them just on the photo. Mint sets with mint tyres have been known to sell for 500+ (scene tax for you) but obviously it's what someone is willing to pay with this COVID shite. I would've been interested but not at that price, nonetheless good luck with the sale matey hopefully a swift one in these current conditions.
