This is a lovely car.
I think you can start there. If your not in a rush then hold out for it. Usually cars around that money have lower mileage, not by much though.
I would hold out for it.

A very rare exclusive colour on the B7, so you have to start around there. It's worth it, just need to find the right owner.

It looks like a great example and I think it's worth the money, but that's dealer money. I think you'll get 20 on a quick sale, and maybe 22 if you hold out.

@Jon_J - thanks,not in a rush to sell,ill see how the test drive goes saturday and take it from there.
@Surrey Sam- it is rare,as far as i know just 1 Nooggy Avant and 1 loon,but thats not always a good thing thanks for the input
@ a1Topdog- i would'n't let it go for £20,i think its worth more than that - thanks for your thoughts
Many thanks for taking the time to reply guys

This is a mint car. Andrew only sources the best examples.
For 24k I’d expect a sub 40k mile car. Has to be absolutely mint. No gaps in services and all common issues addressed. You need to understand that it’s been to MRC now and not everyone will want a mapped/modified car. (Even though these cars NEED them)
The car is well sorted so 24k is not unrealistic at all. But be prepared to sit on her for a while at that price for the right person to come along.
Personally i wouldn’t sell it at all. If you know it’s the only noggy b7 in the country, stick her away in storage if you can.

Very smart, sell it if you want a B8. I'm sure your B7 won't hang around very long and you'll get a good price for it.

Many thanks guys for all your feedback and advice.
I've decided to keep hold of it for the immediate future,its in having a few bits done and as per usual there's a few other bits
that need doing
Also the B8 i as planing on test driving is out of warranty,so i priced up a full auid 1 which came in at over £1200.00
based on <10k pa and £250.00 excess however reading a thread from April this year a few quotes of £680.00 were had,any idea
why such a difference,as i wouldnt run it without a warranty.

Think 1st owners get that price when there is no gap, after the original 3 years has expired.
There's what looks to be a nice spec'd Noggy B8 (non edition) going through Blackbushe Auction soon.

Very simple piece of advice.
If you can afford not to, don't sell it.
Simple to say and write but to this day I wish I had never sold mine, apart from the colour mine was almost identical spec with the same MRC work done. Shiny new car was great but shiny old manual car was better. Having both better still.
But if it must go, as the otters <- wtf....as the others have said wait it out. Low(ish) mileage clean examples do have a market.
