Most of these prices seem high too especially the ones for 89-91's. Of
these shown I'de have to go for the 93 MV !  Especially if that model
has a pop top??

Just sold one of my 3 VW's last night, It was an emotional ordeal when
the guy drove away and honked. I had it ( 86 GTI ) since new and will
most likely never own another new VW product,  BUT I'de think twice
before paying over 20 grand for a Syncro Westy nearing ten years old, no
matter the low? miles.

Felt like typing and thats my 69 cents.
