Looking around at the cars being sold at the minute and there seems to be a certain few that are going for better money than they would have 12 months ago, obviously there is still stuff going silly cheap but it would appear that a nice example may be commanding a bit more cash at the moment, which is nice!

Just seen this on PH, granted it looks to be an absolute minter in the advert but I can't remember the last time I saw a standard car go for circa 3k.

Mint non pink Rallye

A few years ago there was the dealer in the Anglia region that was buying low milers (mainly Rallye's) and getting them sorted (By Carl Chambers IIRC) and selling them at silly monies, that soon stopped.

Then there was Silkys old Bianca that sold last month in about 36 hours, too cheap IMO, could have easily gone for 2k, might have taken a little while longer but looked a good car for the 1600/1700 quid it went for.

Not saying that the 306 will ever command the kind of price that we have seen 205's go for but any increase has to be a good thing

Discuss?

Thing is the one in that advert actually look's nice where as most look like s**t boxes these days.

Same here, I paid £3100 for my 1st black gti6 with 81k miles on in 2008. Now new years eve I bought my nile blue gti6 not the best condition but only cost me £600. Owes me a hell of a lot more than that now tho

Some 306s are worth the higher prices, and some people selling selling cars are being a bit optimistic

When I put my mi up for sale, it will be a bargain, but I'll still make a loss, as all the new NLA parts I have aswell are part of the deal

Hmmm, wonder how much my cossack ph1 will be worth in a year or so....

A lot of getting good money for these cars seems to be waiting for the right buyer who really wants a good example and is prepared to pay for it, which are comparatively few and far between and aren't willing to spend more than the 650 that would get them a '6 on ebay.

I paid £4150 for my P2 diablo 10 years ago. It had 57K on the clock and was completely original and imaculate with 2 previous owners. Owned it for 8 years and put 75K smiles on my face

It seems to be a familiar story - cars as they get older depreciate, and at first the depreciation is at a reasonably uniform level. And as they hit the bottom, and are essentially worthless, people think they always will be worthless. But then certain people start looking for good ones, and the good cars establish a premium as the condition of cars as they get older increasingly reflects how they have been cared for, while the ropey cars still bump along the bottom and get scrapped. Clean and tidy cars are getting more rare, so are potentially worth more.

As I said elsewhere, the condition of a decent Rallye definitely seems to be firming up. Not by a whole lot, but is there nevertheless. It is probably similar for a really nice standard GTI6 in a good colour.

Cherry Rallye SOLD

Agreed - even if after reading an article only 10 people of all the readership decide to look seriously for a clean example of a car, they'll be doing it all at the same time and it would have some effect on prices of the cars for sale at that particular time.

Cherry Rallye SOLD

I was out washing my 6 on sunday afternoon and a guy who must have been in his late 40's jogged past and back again and said to me 'that's a gti6 isn't it?'

Struck up a conversation and I told him about a few things I'd done to it etc. He said there as cheap as they're ever going to get now which I agree with to a certain extent. He told me next time he jogs past he would leave his name and number on a slip of paper under my windscreen wiper and if I ever wanted to sell to call him first
