1992 VW Clubman

We're looking to buy a 1992 Vdub clubman with a 2l petrol engine having travelled 78000 thousand miles apparently in very good condition, are they're any points to look out for and what would be a fair price? I believe trade would probably be somewhere in the region of £5000 thanks

I don't think so. If it's in good condition there is no way that anyone would sell you one for £5k.Petrol engined vans are also getting to be more desirable because of LEZ and similar. I doubt you would find one in genuinely good nick for less than double that, even at 25 years old!

Many thanks mojo that's very helpful

Mojo is spot on there, unless you are very lucky. A bereavement sale may be more favourably priced??

There was a 1994 model for sale near us last year and they wanted £11,999 for it. (Why do people do that?? Is one miserable quid less than £12,000 going to make or break a sale??  )

Don't know if they got the asking price but it disappeared fairly quickly. I think a lot of people like them because of the far superior build quality back then, and the nostalgia value.

Thanks Gromit that's again very helpful (love the £1.00 observation)

That odd quid (or even a penny!) is a pet hate of mine as well.
Mind you, if you have a huge pile of spare cash there's a Ferrari 458 for sale on ebay at the moment for £599,995.00. That's a whole fiver change from 600K...
That's bound to help seal a deal..
