I have probably owned over 100 VW's over my years of working on them. My
wife used to complain because she never knew what she would be driving
from day to day. 
I have never gotten so "attached" to a VW that I wouldn't sell it if the
right buyer came by with the right amount of money. 
The rule for me, used to be, "VW's are to buy and sell, not to keep."
But, now days, I would think twice, maybe several times, before I sold
one of my VW's. Even if it meant a good profit.
