Hi everyone. Want to get some feedbacks from fellow members regarding value retention in a couple years on two variants of Golf.
We’re searching for a daily commuter for the family, and we have set a budget of $30k USD for this quest.
For that budget, we can get a new 2018/19 GTI SE, or we can get an R with 35k miles. Let’s assumed the R is clean and never been modified with 2 years warranty.
Our plan is to drive this car as a daily (short commute so at most 7,500 miles per year) for 2 years so the GTI will have 15k miles and the R will have 50k. At that time, will these two cars still be valued the the same? I’m conservatively guessing both cars will be worth around $20k, but will one of these be down to $15k range?
Thanks for your inputs!!
