1977 Series One with 32,000 miles

Ive got the chance of buying a 1977 Series One with 32,000 miles on her from a bloke not far from me, he is unsure what its worth and so am I.

It has no rust/rot all it needs is a re-spray and it'll be mint!, its been in his dry garage since 1987

Im looking for what its worth???

Cheers

Chris

what colour and spec is it?

Its the same colour as the one in the AGM ad on here and the model is an LS i believe

oh right awesome! you going to go for it? sounds like a good buy if you could get it for a decent price!

What do you recon its worth? Or what should i offer?

im not entirely sure to be honest i havnt seen one for sale like that for ages! get it as cheap as possible haha !

Take a look here mate: The Mk1 Golf Owners Club

Might be of some help!?

Has this turned up since your recent purchase?!!

Its never going to be worth what a gti is worth and it depends on what condition the paint / trim is in.

If you want it concours you could still end up spending over 5K takinig to that level and then it may only be worth just over that when its done.

I would haggle with him until you reach an agreement. Low mileage cars will only go up in value.

Depends how bad you want it though!

Ive known about the car for 3 years but he wasnt ready to sell then so im at him again!!!

I recon ill get it for less than a grand

Did you end up getting that 77 golf mate?

Did I hell…

I will get it one day but im not holding my breath.

I did buy another Mk1 though…

1982 Alpine White Mk1 Golf Van, 1.1 petrol

ahh right, does the guy not want to part with it?

very nice mate! got any pics?

He is an odd old bloke to say the least, I dont want to hastle him too much as I do want the car one day so I will just have to sit and wait for him to contact me.

1977 Series One with 32,000 for less than a grand? Ah you shitting me? I'd snap his arm of if its less than 2k

He has it in his garage, not been out of the garage since 1986!

Ive made him offers on the car but he aint ready to sell yet.

When he is ready to sell he will give me first refusal on it
