Why Golf owners sell to us

We know our Mks

A Mk7.5 GTI Performance is not a Mk7 GTI, and an R32 is not an R. We value the exact car you have.

Faults are fine

DSG trouble, water pump leaks, timing chains, DPF warnings or a failed MOT. Tell us and we price it as it is.

Modified cars considered

Remaps, wheels and exhausts are fine. Tell us what has been changed and whether you kept the original parts.

Open 7 days

Collection on an evening or at the weekend if that suits you better.

How selling your Golf works

  1. Tell us about it

    Reg and mileage on the form, or photos of the car and the dashboard on WhatsApp.

  2. Get your offer

    A firm price, held for 7 days. No pressure to say yes.

  3. We collect, you get paid

    Free collection at a time that suits you. Paid before we leave.

Which Golf is yours?

Mk8 Sell my Golf Mk8 The Mk8 Golf brought mild-hybrid eTSI engines and a fully digital cabin. Whether yours is on finance or owned outright, we will make a fair offer. Mk7 Sell my Golf Mk7 The Mk7 range runs from frugal 1.0 TSI hatchbacks to GTDs covering big miles. We buy every one, including the 2017 Mk7.5 facelift. Mk6 Sell my Golf Mk6 The Mk6 Golf is now an affordable, well-built used car, and plenty have high mileages. We buy them at any mileage and in any condition. Mk5 Sell my Golf Mk5 The Mk5 brought the GTI back to form and gave us the second R32. Many Mk5s are now cheap runarounds, and some are future classics. We buy both. Mk4 Sell my Golf Mk4 The Mk4 is built like a bank vault and many are still going strong. The 1.9 TDI and the R32 are especially well liked. We buy every one. Mk1–3 Sell my classic Mk1, Mk2 or Mk3 Golf Early Golfs, and especially the GTIs, have a big following. Tidy originals, restored cars, rusty projects and modified cars all have value, and we will make an offer on yours. GTI Sell my Golf GTI or GTD The GTI is the Golf everyone knows, and the GTD gives the same look with diesel economy. We value them on generation, originality, history and condition. R Sell my Golf R or R32 The four-wheel-drive Golfs are the fastest of the family. The VR6-powered R32s and the turbocharged Rs are all wanted, and we buy them in any condition. Estate Sell my Golf Estate The Golf Estate is a practical family and work car, and many have big mileages. We buy every generation, plus the Alltrack, Golf Plus and Golf SV. Damaged Sell my damaged or non-running Golf A big repair bill does not have to be your problem. Tell us honestly what is wrong and we will buy the Golf as it is.

What we look at on a Golf

Two Golfs from the same year can be worth very different amounts. These are the things that make the difference.

Engine and timing
TSI, TFSI, TDI or VR6, and how it runs.
Manual or DSG
Clutch feel, or how the DSG changes.
DPF and emissions
TDI warning lights and limp mode.
Bodywork, wheels and interior
Scuffs, dents, kerbed alloys and seat wear.
Model, trim and options
S, SE, Match, GT, R-Line, GTI, GTD or R, and the extras.
Service record and logbook
Stamps, invoices, the V5C and every key.

Which Golfs do you buy?

Every generation from the Mk1 to the Mk8, including the GTI, GTD, GTE, R, R32, e-Golf, estate, Alltrack and cabriolet, plus the Golf Plus and Golf SV.

My DSG gearbox has a fault. Will you buy it?

Yes. Juddering, slipping or a flashing gear display is common on some DSG Golfs. Tell us what it is doing and we will price it as it is.

Do you buy modified Golfs?

Yes. Tell us about the remap, wheels, suspension or exhaust and whether you have the original parts.

Is a high-mileage diesel Golf worth selling?

Yes. Plenty of TDI Golfs have big mileages. Send the details for a free offer.

It failed its MOT. What now?

Send us the result. If it cannot be driven we collect it free.

By bank transfer on the day we collect, or cash if you prefer. Nothing is deducted for fees.
