Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

Resales/trade in values are absolutely hammered across all makes right now, that 65% would be VERY optimistic.
Not knowing the condition/mileage on that example, but assuming all good, then the $15k isn't stupid low - the dealer will add their usual $5-6k mark-up assuming they put it on their lot, and that lines up with a few dealer examples on carsales at the minute at the 21-22k bracket.

With the new Golf in the shops the standard manual mark VI isn't worth as much....yes, I could have tried selling it privately but I don't want the hassleGolf VI GTI MY13 Candy white/ DSG/ Detroits/ tint/ reverse camera/ parking sensors

Fergo308's Mk6 103TDI Wagon
Hi all,
I've just traded in my Lexus for a new(er) daily driver,a 2010 Mk6 103TDI Comfortline Golf Wagon.
Initial impressions are positive,and seeing as I sell car parts online for a living,this car will slowly cop it's fair share of mods!
Look forward to seeing you all on the road!

Cheers! It's not a bad colour,am glad I found one at the right price in a decent shade.
Gave the car a service yesterday:
And started adding some extra sound deadening today,starting in the spare wheel well:
Then fitted an OEM Tiguan rear swaybar,seeing as I had one lying around from the wife's car (which now has Super Pro bars F&R),and it's roughly 3.5mm bigger than the wagon's stock bar. Should cure a little of the understeer.

Hi all,
I have made my first car purchase after driving my old mans old 2003 Camry altise since getting my licence a couple of years ago.
I have got myself a Red 2010 Golf GTI Mk6
Payed 25k (excluding govt charges etc.)
57,000km on the clock
Sunroof, 18" Detroits, GPS, Reverse Camera and classic GTI Cloth Seats
Darkest legal tint will be done when i pick it up from the dealer on Monday
Was super happy to find a GTI with this combination of options etc. seems to be quite rare that people get most of the options and leave out the leather seats! I love the cloth seats!! only thing missing would probably be the Dynaudio sound system, although the stock one sounded quite decent
Thoughts? Any tips for a first time GTI owner?
