What moves your Volkswagen Golf's value
- Kilometres — the single biggest lever. A Volkswagen Golf well under the typical odometer for its year sits toward the upper end of the band.
- Variant and drivetrain — trim levels within the same model year can differ by many thousands of dollars.
- Service history — a complete logbook reassures the next buyer and reduces the dealer's risk, which shows up in the offer.
- Condition and presentation — panel damage, worn tyres and interior wear all come off the price as reconditioning cost.
- Timing and location — demand shifts by season and by state, and a dealer short on your model will bid harder.
