Work from the median final bid on this page, then adjust for the repair in front of you. A Volkswagen Golf GTI with light front-end damage and keys sits near the top of the sold-price range; a water loss without keys sits at the bottom.

Does the model year change what a Volkswagen Golf GTI sells for at auction?

No. These are auction results for damaged or salvage Volkswagen Golf GTI vehicles — the price at the close of the sale, before transport, fees and repair. Retail value sits well above them.
