    Bought an '11 ii yesterday afternoon. Traded my '10 TCH on a great deal. Now, it's on to selling my '02 VW Jetta TDI, and simplifying my lifestyle to go back to one vehicle. I should have been driving the Prius loooong ago. I feel like I'm home. I will NOT miss the repair bills on the TDI!

    Why would you trade the 10 TCH instead of the 02 TDI?

    Good luck selling.

    There is still a big market for TDI's. In reasonable condition, you wont have any problem selling it.

    More value in the 10 TCH for a trade. No trade value on a TDI at that age/mileage from dealer perspective, but many lookers on Ebay for TDIs. I've also heard stories of TDI engines being removed and used in non-vehicle applications!

    That's why I said goodbye to my '09 TDI, too many problems. Congrats!
