buying a jetta 1995...with some mods

[Blackbelt]

<3 my 98, but just like eurodad I have the 2.0…
Same thing, in a way, I’ve done the clutch twice.
Maybe because I can’t drive? Who knows.
Anyways, I haven’t had much of any problems besides regular maintenance because it has 118K miles on it. Obvious things like filters and belts n shit, and now the suspension has gone to hell but other then that it’s treated me well over the last 60K miles that I’ve been the owner.
As for it being a money pit?
Not so much.
Proper care saves you a shit-ton of money, but then again, who knows what this guy has done to it, right?

Oh and once again, more info.
Mods can mean all kinds of things…

The 2.slow is a pretty reliable engine, and parts are not too expensive.
The VR6…get your wallet out.
Don’t get me wrong…i love VW’s. I own one now. I have pretty much owned some vw (or 2 or 3)continually since 1980. But they have their quirks and they have their issues. I prefer A1 and A2’s.
