I wouldn't want a 106 with more than 60k on the clock, and for that i think your looking at plus £2.5k
So you selling yours when it gets to 60k?
It probably won't reach 60k without a rebuild!!!
I'd defiantely say you want a FSH.

Why won't yours reach 60k? Do you thrash it that much?
Mines fine after 77k

Mine's at 87k and still runs fine.
I know people with one's on 130k and they're fine. Providing the owner takes good care of it, regular services etc.

I bought mine a year ago, 98 S reg (leather) 64k on the clock and it was £3.5k from a garage, 6 month warrenty. its on 78k now and still running like a dream, its immaculate.
I'd be gutted if it was worth less than £2.5k now!

When i bought my car i viewed over 20 cars, varying from 2.5k to 4.5k, 15 of them were in such bad condition i never even bothered test driving them, the others had clearly been modified at some point. As soon as i pulled up at the garage i purchased mine from i know i was going to buy it, its one of the best examples i've seen

how can you speculate the value of a car without seeing it, and if you check prices of used gtis on trader etc you will find 97 R's with 80k+ miles selling for 2750, without leather.

Private Good £2,045
Based on avg miles of 80k, so add on maybe 200 quid as yours has done less than avg miles

because idiots think there cars are worth more than they are. I saw a corsa 1.2 M reg with a wombat kit on it up for 8k but does that mean its worth 8k? or that it will sell for 8k?
do you want a fight?
