[Vwdiesel] What's an 01 Golf TDI worth?

[Travis Gottschalk]

A lot depends on where you are located but there is one in southern WI that a friend is looking to buy. He is going to offer $4500 and the guy said he would take between $0-$6000. Close to same miles and it is a 99.5 GL Golf two door. I have also seen some 100K mile ones selling for $10000. 
 
How many kids? I know I could do up to 3. Just have to add rear cargo/top cargo areas which is cheaper then another vehicle/lost mpg.
