Hi everyone

I'm currently in the market for a golf gti / r, and have plenty of questions to ask. Great forum and glad to see so much support and enthusiasm for the VW brand.

welcome aboard Nick. are you looking for new or used?

Hi Gareth, looking for a used mk6 DSG, if you know anyone selling one in Perth that would be awesome!

[gareth_oau]

can I recommend you have a look ex East as well.

Perth only has around 10% of the market, and the local prices can often reflect that.

By considering ex east, you can get a lower price, but a far great a range to choose from. Transport is around $1k.

I purchased my S3 in Qld and had it trucked over.

Or if anything, at least use the Eastern States cars to drive a better bargain here

yep, thanks for the advice. i've been looking at prices across all of Australia to help with pricing up a car
I've never bought a car from over east, but understand its a pretty easy process if you have a cooperative seller.

its a bit of a (small) chore getting it licensed as its not legal to drive on interstate plates, so you have to get a temporary permit, so you can take it over our pits.

nothing too major and well worth it if you get a good car ex east

Thanks mate, I'll be bugging you about bringing the car to Perth if i find one over east!
