How best to sell my Golf?
Hi Shane I’m the owner of a 181 D VW Golf from new. Mileage is 11535 kms Looking to sell it but I’ve 2 questions A. Would the dealership take it back? Non trade in B. Would it be better selling privately ?
Our answer:
Hi Neil,
To answer your questions: yes, most dealerships would buy it back off you, but at a significantly lower price than its market value, in order that they can sell it back on for a profit (and with enough in the price difference to cover their time for selling it). You’re better off selling it yourself, where you should get around €19,000 to €20,000 for it.
