Just completed an engine/trans swap with ones that had only 25,000 miles on them (I bought these about 5 years ago for a TDI swapout that never happened & since I know how rare it is to find low mileage drivetrains for this car I have stored it in my dry storage container since then knowing that one day I would find a good use for them) I used all the "proper" fluids & necessary accessories & belts when doing the swap. Everything else about the car is functional. For those of you in the know about B4V you'll realize how rare it is to find one that doesn't have at least something that is not working properly. The only known issue is the lft frnt window regulator if you hold your finger on the switch after the window is up it will click. Other then that it works perfectly as all the other windows do. The exterior has the typical wear & tear of an almost 20 yr old car w/a quarter million miles on it. I should mention at this point that theere are two small spots on the hood where the clear coat is just starting to peel a bit (see attached photos).There is absolutely no rust or corrosion anywhere, no dents or body damage, glass is unscathed, tires have about %80 tread left. The interior is in excellent clean condition w/no stains tears or rips in any of the upholstery. I have the sliding rear compartment cover & tracks stored in my container & will happily include those if you would like (I've never used it)I will also include service records from the previous owner (see photos)I have the original owners manual as well as several keys. The car runs amazingly well for the miles, suspension is tight & the low mileage drive train purrs like a champ. It's for sale locally in Portland OR & I'd be happy to show it there this next week till the end of the auction. Just noticed that the Autocheck that was automatically printed as part of my ad lists 5 owners & I'm not sure where this came from as there has only been two. There were two minor accidents reported both involving incidents w/deer. Repaired correctly w/no evidence visible or otherwise. I'm happy to share a copy of the carfax if anyone so desires just contact me about it!
