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

[Tad]

Just one for now, but the problem isn't the kid so much as the car seat.
 The rear-facing seat just barely fits in the center position, and that's
with me sitting straighter than I'd like.  The only way to get a second kid
back there would be with the older kid in a forward-facing seat, and that
would necessitate moving the rear-facing seat to the passenger side and
moving the passenger seat so far forward as to render it useless.
