what year was the flood damage and the salvage date? It doesn't take much to total an older car out in the eyes of an insurance agent. Find out what the actuall damage was, then multiply what they tell you by 2 and you should get an idea of what really happened.

I told him i would give him $700.00 for it just to see what he'd say he was originaly asking $2000.00 OBO and before i found out it had a salvage title i was gonna offer him $1,500.00 He declined my offer of $700 now the only reason i want the car is for parts, i mean it has a relativley low mileage 2.0 16v at 87k miles what do you guys think is the higest i should offer this guy once again its a 91 GTI 16v 2.0 red eibach sprigs, brospeed exaust GLI recaros, power windows and mirrors, needs clutch, headliner and maybe some belts and a tune up... _______________________________________________ a2-16v-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.a2-16v.com/mailman/listinfo/a2-16v-list For list archives, see listinfo link above.
