Question 1

Was $7,900 a good price for this 2017 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG?

Accepted Answer

73 comparable 2017 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG listings sold at auction for a median of $4,800, spanning $3,300 to $7,400. At $7,900 this one went 65% above that median. Auction prices reflect as-is condition, so the gap usually comes down to damage severity, mileage and whether the car runs.

Question 2

What does a salvage mean for this VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG?

Accepted Answer

This 2017 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG was sold on a salvage. A salvage title means an insurer declared the vehicle a total loss. Repairing it and passing a state inspection can convert it to a rebuilt title, which stays on the record permanently and affects resale value.

Question 3

How far is this VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at IAAI in NY - SCHENECTADY. The nearest major vehicle export port is Newark, roughly 160 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $200-$300, which is a real part of the landed cost and one reason identical cars fetch different bids depending on where they sit. Rates are indicative market figures rather than quotes, and rise with fuel prices and in winter.

Question 4

What does "ENGINE STARTS" mean on this listing?

Accepted Answer

ENGINE STARTS is the auction's own condition note for this 2017 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG. It is a short status flag applied by the auction, not the result of a mechanical inspection. Anything beyond that has to come from the photos and a physical inspection.

Question 5

Who sold this 2017 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG?

Accepted Answer

The listing seller was ERIE INSURANCE GROUP. Seller type is a useful signal: insurers typically consign total-loss vehicles, rental and fleet operators consign on a cycle regardless of damage, and dealers consign trade-ins they do not want to retail. Each implies a different history behind the same damage label.

Question 6

Is 20,939 miles high for a 2017 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2017 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG listings at auction averaged 92,277 miles across 73 sales, so at 20,939 miles this one sits 77% below that. At salvage auctions mileage moves the price far less than damage does — a low-mileage car with structural damage will still sell under a higher-mileage clean one.
