Hello,
I have an opportunity to purchase a 1981 Volkswagen cabriolet (Golf convertible) with 239835 KM. I know the owner, so I know hte information to be accurate. Here are the details:
Never winter driven No rust New Vinyl top New paint professionally done (as old paint was faded and "tired") (original engine was 1.6L)
5 Speed stand transmission Car looks immaculate and was well taken care of All service records are available Has an appraisal stating car is worth $4500 (although I don't put much value into these reports)The owner wants $3900 Canadian for the car as this is the price it cost him for the paint ($2500) and new vinyl top ($1400)
I was wondering if anyone could comment on the price. Is it reasonable?
I also was wondering if anyone could let me know things that typically go wrong with the car so I can check them out first.
Regards,
