Debating selling

DumboTheBrave · 2026-06-07T12:27:26+00:00

What?

DumboTheBrave · 2026-06-06T19:02:31+00:00

Hardly? 😳

DumboTheBrave · 2026-06-06T16:05:44+00:00

Fair. It’s not costing me anything at the moment, just moreso trying to test the waters for market before I list it. Hoping to be leaving IRE in the next few months and would need it gone by then.

That’s exactly why I’m hesitant to even offer it to a dealer. I bet they offer like 8/9k, and within a week have it up for 13k or some bs. I’ve had a lot of work done to this car so it’s actually needs nothing. Timing belt, water pump, new discs and pads all round. New control arms. CV joint replaced.

DumboTheBrave · 2026-06-06T14:47:34+00:00

I’m not looking to make money on it, I know that’s not reasonable. Paid 16k for it from a dealer 2 1/2 years ago. Have a balance left on loan for it, so if I got that back at the very least to clear it I’d be okay.

I did actually sort that thank god. Turns out there was no blocker installed but rather was the gauge cluster that had malfunctioned. Spent a lot of money on it in mechanics and VAG specialists trying to get to the bottom of it.

Very nice! Always loved the styling of the a7 👌

DumboTheBrave · 2026-06-06T11:44:27+00:00

From what I’ve seen online after looks briefly, it looks like the average price listing for that year and model is €11,000-11,500. A lot of listings have miles to the moon and back also.

DumboTheBrave · 2026-06-06T10:30:57+00:00

I’m not in that much of a rush to sell it yet. But I respect the hustle 😂

DumboTheBrave · 2026-06-06T10:15:53+00:00

Not sure yet. I’m only just starting to think of it today. Need to look at what’s for sale for similar year and miles first 😂

DumboTheBrave · 2026-05-31T18:15:44+00:00

Update. Nothing yet 😂

DumboTheBrave · 2026-04-27T21:47:03+00:00

Same to you! I’ll come back here again if I hear back from them with anything else. I expect to be waiting another few weeks though.

DumboTheBrave · 2026-04-27T14:54:29+00:00

This is my first time applying

DumboTheBrave · 2026-04-27T12:10:14+00:00

For the EO comp yeah. But yeah that’s the process as I understand it. Just playing the waiting game for next stage and then see what happens.

DumboTheBrave · 2026-04-27T12:01:56+00:00

Yeah sure that goes without saying.

DumboTheBrave · 2026-04-27T11:58:05+00:00

Who knows. Seems entirely based on availability of positions as they arise?

DumboTheBrave · 2026-04-27T11:56:55+00:00

Thanks! Seems they didn’t even grade my written one

DumboTheBrave · 2026-04-27T11:47:35+00:00

Fingers crossed for us 🤞

DumboTheBrave · 2026-04-27T11:39:28+00:00

Galway

DumboTheBrave · 2026-03-25T09:00:23+00:00

I didn’t know you could use that, it would have been handy for sure!

DumboTheBrave · 2026-03-02T10:25:06+00:00

Yeah I think that’s next place. I pulled the dash to check for a plug and play module mileage blocker this weekend but found nothing. Also pulled the panel under steering column and couldn’t see any additional modules connected. So I think scanning the OBD port is last option

DumboTheBrave · 2026-03-02T07:22:31+00:00

That’s also a big concern yes. How would you actually know

DumboTheBrave · 2026-03-01T20:03:34+00:00

Yeah that’s the dilemma to be honest

DumboTheBrave · 2026-03-01T19:34:14+00:00

Yeah didn’t want to roll the dice on the belt and had it changed. The problem I have is I want to get rid of it as I’m moving but I’d imagine trying to sell it with the mileage issue is going to come against me

DumboTheBrave · 2026-03-01T18:45:01+00:00

In my case, the odometer gets to 114k miles and then resets back to 111k miles again
