Which brings up a peeve of mine-what people are asking & what they
sell for are not necessarily the same. Seeing asking prices on the
samba, my favorite vw site, tends to distort what we think vehicles
are worth, as volks have nothing to loose to ask for the moon w/ a
free ad? & you one rarely knows what it actually sells for, usually
much less?
