So after selling my Ibiza Cupra TDI a year ago, not a single day has gone by with me not regretting my decision.
The past two months, I constantly find myself surfing the interwebs looking for Cupra's, noticing that the prices some guys ask are quite ridiculous. Is it just me? Are these prices fair? Ibiza Cupra's selling for 110, 120, 130k? Leon Cupra's up to 170k? (except you Dylan, yours was cleaaan.. and I know you are going to see this thread).
I understand that condition plays a big part but is it justifiable? I guess I expect to see the same luck I had with the previous one, but I've come to realise that it's a mission to find the right one.
Just my thoughts for the day

Kev im sorry i need to ban you for selling that Cupra....
They are definitely going up in price again having reached a low over the past probably 3 years.
There is word that a Leon Cupra was bought for R180k from a dealership. Its really crazy to think they are selling for that price considering some were bought new for that back in 08.

Did that yellow one sell for R179k as listed? Madness. Albeit the car had 90k km on it...

was thinking the same, if someone is able to put that much cash into the deal, why not look a little more and and find the usual LC for +-R130k and pay half up front? |

Trade in when the car is cold 
Only once it warms up, it gives problems - Mind you it might be female?

Another one? What model? Do want a fully build engine? The engine has 1,200kms on it and the body has 95k on it. Been stuck there for years.
