SOLD
Here we go:
00 TDI Jetta
353K miles (that is not a typo)
Manual trans.
Silver on black cloth
Crank windows, no sunroof
Pioneer DEH-6300UB radio
Recently recharged A/C
$3000 – Includes (but not installed) Raceland coils with all new mounts, and primered OEM Aristos without tires.
- I’ll throw in a hood bra that will clean up the front a bit, and any spare parts I have.
It was a one owner car through about 330K (I believe), dealer maintained. There are a stack of receipts, some from random shops, mostly for oil changes and simple things. Guessing by the array of locations, this dude traveled A TON for work.
Shortly before he got rid of it it had the timing belt and water pump done, turbo replaced, clutch, and brake job. Realistically there is no huge maintenance needed. The EGR is clean, and it gets a solid 45-48mpg consistently. The headlights are newer, no foggy jawns.
Since I bought it I did new ball joints and replaced the control arms with new bushings. It needs suspension, I have a set of Racelands I’m willing to add in if wanted, also it is in pretty bad need of tires. I have a set of Aristos in primer that I could spray and (if wanted) get tires for.
There is serious stone chip/rust gnar on the hood and the front of the roof. Both front fenders look like garbage and recently I smacked up one of the rear quarters. The interior is as clean as I could possibly make it, but there are coffee stains on the seats and one has a tear.
This car is NOTHING to write home about cosmetically, but it works, and it works really well. If it was up to me I would keep it, but if this deal goes through the last thing my old man wants is an eyesore in the driveway.
just breaking it in. funny note the ODO will stop at 615k’ish because the computer can only process up to 1million kilometers
