Should I trade my car for this

[416stroker]

I got a pretty serioeus guy offering his 01 jetta. Its a wolfsberg 1.8t with 150k on it the guy wants to trade me straight up for my car.
What are your opinions Im thinking its pretty fair the car is clean

[e30this]

Have you ever driven in a Jetta?

[e30s52]

Jetta's are a girls car. Keep your e30 you will be much happyer.

Paul, is the Jetta bigger than the E30?
Isn't that what the whole "getting a new car thing" is all about? Drive it, if you like it, do it.

You should trade and sell the jetta and buy another e30. There... problem solved!!

[bignate948]

i wouldnt for a jetta unless you have the need for a bigger 4door car

i wouldnt for a jetta unless you have the need for a bigger 4door car

Which he does.

[416stroker]

I do need a bigger car. Ive never driven a turbo jetta. Are they gutless?

I Like how they look all stock with a drop if they have the factory bbs.

I know theres a lot of turbo upgrades but the car will always be FWD.

Value wise is it pretty fair? Id rather have a E34 and slam it on its nuts but all cash buyers seem like flakes.

oh and my fiance said she would sell her s10 to buy me another E30

[red325]

Keep the e30

[She loved E]

If you're into it do it. Jettas can be good cars, 1.8T is a great engine (peeps on VW forums will tell you it can nevah lose). Fit and finish is not as good as E30 IMO. More room is debatable... the back seat in a Jetta/Golf is TINY!

Jetta's are pretty weak to drive, not to mention most new-ish VW's and Audi's with anywhere near 100k are nightmares. Problem after problem after problem-- I've seen them get bad. That said, the Jetta's seem to have the least issues of all of the VW/Audi vehicles I've worked on and around.

I'm not sure what the specs on your car are, but I would check the value of the Jetta. If there is a chance to get the Jetta as an even trade and it is worth a decent bit more than what you have in the E30, go for it. If you are considering the trade, your E30 probably doesnt have any sentimental value to you. If there's a chance to make money in the deal, I would do it in a heartbeat.

But that's me.

look for oil sludge issues... that happens on the 1.8 tarboooos

[selturk]

keep the e30.. it's not even a GTI 1.8t.

no need to bother with a jetta..
