.....and I will bet my left nut he will use the build date to value your car.

I think your "lefticle" is safe (and the dealers on here agree with me)

[Mk6 GTI]

Excuse my ignorance, but unless the car is complianced and registered in 2009, the car will be a 2010 Golf GTI, even if the build was November or December 2009. It's not like the car is going to change spec so is it just people being a bit pedantic? The cars valuation will be based of the compliance date in Australia so it will be a genuine 2010 car. No?

You are 100% correct! It does not matter at all when its built if its arrives here in 2010 its a compliance 2010 model and will be sold on that basis. I know this because I sold my Mk4 golf as a 2004 model but it was a 2003 build- 2004 compliance car.

Sorry, not so Professional valuations on secondhand cars are based on the BUILD DATE, not the MY or the compliance date (please read what one of our resident dealers said earlier on the subject, it is quite clear).

When the valuer calls around for opinions they go by the build date.
