for trade ins, even if the car looks really good, the comment i got was flattering but their valuation is not :(

thats a huge factor, i look after my cars like crazy...
the rav4 i had i got cruiser wheels on it from ebay for $300, $99 fog lights from ebay which were similar to originals and bull bar from dealer, adn side steps and head light and bonnet protector all thrown in along with extended Toyota warranty, and their after sales service was the best ive experienced to date...but the cosmetic mods and maintanence really made it a good seller...bmw my neighbour sold his original 17 335 i wheels to me at ridiculously cheap price and i swapped that with my original 16inch

anyway, to the Jetta guy, well done for the high resale, its not easy to get every time and biggest factor is for sure how good a deal u get initially?

Before my Euro,I had 6 other cars,4 Volkswagens,1 Ford,and 1 Holden product.

The oldest was 6 and a half years old...an Astra TS sedan,and the youngest was a V W Bora...1 and a half years old.

Each was immaculate,and I got top dollar for all of them.

So it depends a lot on how they are maintained and presented at the end of the day.

Service books are also VITAL.
