Worth the money
On the surface it sounds a reasonable deal. You would expect a VT to have done 90-110,000km on average, so the mileage is below average. The trade is paying $11,000-$13,500 for a VT S at the moment, and retailing them at $15,000-$18,000. Check the car thoroughly, and make sure the odometer is correct.
