thank's Mike

I'll give you a tenner !!

Seriously ... between $10,000 and $15,000 seems to be the going rate. However with 220,000 on the clock ... you may be looking at quite at the lower end.
Checking www.autotrader.ca there are two in the TO area, $12,500 & $6,500.
The extra's that are installed don't really add much to resale value, unfortunately, unless you find a specific buyer.
Personally, I would try the local small ads for a couple of weeks, then throw it on www.autotrader.ca for a few weeks. If that didn't work then I would try e-bay. If you still didn't sell it, try the same route again but at a lower price.
Alternatively if you were going for a trade in, you could maybe get $8,500+ for it. I looked at a few things for fun recently, and had my 98 Mystique appraised to abou $3k, but ended up with offers of $6k off the buy price.

With the mileage that high if I remember correctly the black book would only get you about $5,000 if you were lucky. Regardless of the shape of the body etc. people don't care about that as much somtimes as they do about the mileage. I think you would have a difficult time getting much more than $6000 or $7,000 personally but it is worth a try to get more.

What are you looking at getting MIke?

Hey Alex actually I am thinkning of buying a 2005 VW Jetta but the TDI actually I can't handle all the gas !!!!
