Sellers remorse is very short lived and if you stay away from the various
VW Internet lists it cures itself quickly. (It also helps to throw out
all of those funny anti freeze jugs so your color perception can return
to normal.) Remember Green is the color of money just like to color of
regular Anti Freeze.
I'd be more worried about the buyers remorse after you buy your next VW
van or Westie.
As soon as the buyers remorse settles a bit then the "Paranoid
Maintenance Syndrome" sets in.
This continues until you sell this next vehicle which can be a lengthy
process unless you bought in really cheap or you just want to sell it to
your neighbor to settle a grudge.
Many Van and Westy owner are driven to "Parting Out" their vehicles once
they find out they are worth more money in pieces than as a complete car
that is running.
