Hi All.

I'm selling my 1995 Volkswagen Golf Comfortline 1.4 petrol.
Tax is out 05/12 although a lengthy NCT 03/13.

Mileage is 129,000 with a FSH. This car was originally sold by Bradys in Dublin
in 1995. Since then it got serviced yearly, with stamps to prove. I also have many
recipes for this car, I got two new Firestone tyres put on it about two weeks ago
for €140 and of course, a receipt to prove.

I've overhauled the brakes, as the original drums and shoes had provided their service.
Disks and pads needed a good clean, changed the brake fluid and the master cylinder.

The car is lowered on coil over springs and drives lovely, it can be lowered a further inch too.

It's on donedeal for 850, but 750 or nearest offers for Eircooled members.

Sold.

Good luck with the sale Mikey. It's a great price and the fact you have bucket loads of service history makes it an even bigger bargain!

This is a great car. Mikey's an honest seller and someone's gonna get a bargain.
(I'll accept my commission for this in the form of beers Mike) :)

Seriously though, it's a great car. Good luck buddy!

Your comment had me thinking, and a fun spin in it around at the weekend clenched my thoughs.
Car is not for sale, I'm going to pull it off the road while I drive the beetle as a daily.
Won't get another one as clean for the money, unless I see a cracking GTI it'll be back up.

Well I've driven the 1500 for the last week as a daily, clocking up 750 miles in that time.

I've really no need for the golf now because of the beetle, so it's back up for sale.

Price is €750. €850 on donedeal.

Low tax, good fuel economy, NCT 03/13.
The adjustable coil overs and wheels are probably more expensive than the car.

Sold.

Mk3s just aren't shifting at the mo, you can get Gti mk3s for a few hundred with a test, I'm stuck with one standing me more than its worth.

Still Mikeys is a good clean car an a cheap daily on cheaper tax than a Gti so I'm shocked it's still around. Ah well you might be glad of it come winter.
