Hey all,

I'm not sold (heh) on actually parting with my TDI, but I'm considering it. Thing is, I'm not sure what it's worth. Here's some stats - if anyone can give me an idea of what I could get for it, I'd appreciate it!

  • 2003 TDI GL
  • GTI Seats
  • South Bend clutch
  • Shine Street springs
  • Koni Yellows
  • Shine rear sway bar
  • 25mm front sway bar
  • Atlas aluminum underbelly pan
  • Three sets of wheels and tires - 17's with summers; 15's with winters; 15's with R-comps
  • 11mm injection pump
  • pp520's
  • Alligator Tune (with Q-Loader)
  • 17/22 Hybrid Garret turbo
  • Euro light/fog switch
  • Vormax Fuel filter and electric/coolant heater system (located in the trunk, uses small electric heater at night, and engine coolant while running to warm fuel during the winter, has valves to shut it off in the summer, fuel filter is best possible way to ensure no water gets into the engine/injection pump - particularly important for biodiesel use)
  • Hidden Hitch w/trailer lights hookup
  • Ball hitch
  • 3 bike carrier for trailer hitch
  • iPod/iPhone cable input and charger to stock stereo
  • Thule roof racks
  • 178k miles
Right now it needs a new control arm bushing on the left side, and an oil change in the next 2000 miles (changed every 7k or so with full synthetic).

So, any thoughts?

Thanks!
Bill

If you posted a pic, that would help. Just off the top of my head, She's gotta be worth at least $2250.

how do you like the swaybar setup? Just curious because I'm thinking about getting a 25mm front bar and a 28mm rear bar, nice car overall, any ideas on price?

All TDI's - No gassers! Luxo-Tourer = 13 Passat (hands down, the nicest car we've ever owned), Most fun = MK4 Golf
so you are running a 17/22 w/o a FMIC, then?

Is there any downside to this?

I thought when a 17/22 was in place that an improved IC is needed at least?

Just curious.
