sj2112 Posted October 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2021 (edited) That time of year again, insurance and tax due. Owned this just over a year now. So insured with greenlight for a 2nd year, and taxed for 6 months, won't get used to much coming upto the winter. Had the alignment sorted and today had new brake disc and pads front and rear as well as new fluid. Much better long funny poems by roald dahl Car does need a clean now having got caught in the rain.

Mattymdm Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 8k for silver Gti. What made it worth so much? Dont take it as an insult, I’m just wondering what mines now worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 Just watch out if your car (any good condition Lupo TBH) is damaged or stolen. The insurance book value is really low now. Gtis are about £1300 and regular flavour about £600. To keep your car after a minor scuff or the slightest damage, to stop the insurer writing it off and taking it off your hands, you NEED 3 independent valuations that are no older than 6 months. This is true even for agreed value cover... as the insurer will try to find any way to avoid paying out the full amount. Some members on here have had nightmare situations they've been through. I had someone scratch my car and went down the route of claiming through their insurance. Just a scratch. Really. They tried to write it off! They said the respray would cost more than half the value of the car. So I dropped the claim and simply asked the person who scratched my car to pay £150 towards the repair (which I resprayed myself in the end for £30 and a weekend of work). Mad.

Nice one on the sale, on to the next, that sounds like me, though not me! When I bought my R32, i was looking at Lupo GTI's at the same time, now i've sold the R32, I'll be looking at Lupo's again. I miss my old Sport, think the GTI would be the next level as the ex used to have a GTI at the same point as me, chalk and cheese. I'll be back on here with an actual Lupo again..

Dont take it as an insult, I’m just wondering what mines now worth. Bodywork was mint, had brand new tyres, brakes, kw's, recent service/mot/cambelt etc. Low miles at 55k and zero rust. He viewed two before mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
