Hi there,
I am in Seattle and the proud owner of a silver 2003 Jetta wagon TDI 5 speed with just over 60K miles. It's been a great car.
Based on the research I've done, obviously there is a strong market for my vehicle. My question is - what's the best way to market and sell? Many have advised just trading in at the dealer (I'm going to get a new Jetta TDI wagon) but I may not get much for it that way.
Thoughts?
Here are a few other details-
Single owner since 2003 (me)
5 speed
Black leather interior
Moon/Sun roof
Have been fueling car with biodiesel the last 4 years
No mechanical issues of any kind
All service has been done at the dealership - Carter VW in Seattle (with the exception of one year when we lived in Minnesota)
No accidents, but there is a bit of cosmetic body damage from when I tried to squeeze into my too-small garage. Some other minor scratches and dings too, general wear and tear.
I'm leaning towards getting the car detailed, taking some nice photos and listing it for around.... ? Or, should I just go to the dealer and be done with it.
Thanks so much!
