Nope, I meant US dollars but I didn't just make that number up.

http://www.vanagon.com/syncros/faq/index.html

has this to say about syncro westy pricing:

"Typically, from $10,000 to $20,000, depending on year, mileage, what shape the vehicle is in, and local market conditions. But you can go higher or lower. On the West Coast, when dealers have '90 or '91 models the asking price is often in the mid twenties."

Also ep.com has several listed for over $20,000 US

Now I don't know what they are actually SELLING for, but the asking price has to give some indication...

Thanks,
Chris
