I've had it passively listed in my signature, but I need it to go. Don't make me put it on ebay! Click on B4V link in signature for more info.

This is a well loved wagon. Purchased from original owner at 186K and only selling as we replaced her with another Passat wagon.


sold

Am I having an identity crisis? The lighter purple/blue is storm grey?

Bottom dollar was ??

 

[quantum_tdi]

$7000 with no repair to dents, cracked windshield or dead instrument cluster. Buyer should have gone to the $8000 and had all that fixed... I wanted her to leave me in great shape, but for $1000 even with insurance money (dents) I wasn't going to come out ahead.

Oh, and I'm teaching him all about biodiesel. He's hanging around the coop tomorrow to see us brew.

Seems like a fair price. Aren't there quite a few available for sale right now?

not so much- I may not have sold it to him if he wasn't planning on using biodiesel.

yes, it was wierd to see so many come up for sale. Not many have a history like this one though. 186K by original owner, meticulous maintenance (he is a physicist and sound engineer), garaged, and upgraded. I think it was a pretty fair deal. I'll sleep tonight.

I know, I know... us crazy enviro-nuts.

What I should have said was "give him a deal". I didn't drive much of a hard bargain is all
