Vehicle Detail
Selling my 2001 bright red Beetle TDI with a sunroof. I am the original owner and along with my wife and son; we have put 225,600 mostly trouble-free miles on it. Asking $2000, which is the approximate Kelly Blue Book value. Let’s start with the Good stuff: -I am the original owner, purchased new in August 2000 -Red with black interior -Sunroof -5 Speed -ECU upgraded with Rocketchip -Upgraded Stereo -3 Goodyear Assurance and 1 Yokohama tires -Tons of maintenance records; I kept a database of virtually everything and have almost all receipts -100K Timing belt installed at 190K -Used Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck and Mobil Delvac -Includes original owners manual plus full official VW service manual The not so good stuff: -It needs new rear brakes, pads, rotors, and calipers; this is the reason I decided to sell it. I just don’t have the time, tools and youth to tackle it. Approximate cost for parts at Rock Auto, $175. -Two codes showing, P0380 - Glow Plugs, and P1557 - I believe the MAF is the issue -A couple of small rust spots on the rocker panels -Drivers seat is worn through in one spot -Right side license plate light is missing -Front driver side window is a bit wonky, needs adjusting and interior door lock button is included but not installed -Front grill was never installed correctly during repairs after hitting a raccoon -Fuel filter needs replacing Here are some of the items replaced or repaired over the years: -127K, New starter motor and sway bars -173K, Replaced clutch -190K, Replaced front springs -190K, New timing belt, water pump, and fuel filter -194K, Replaced front pads and rotors -195K, Replaced both lower control arms, front struts, (Bilstein TC Struts), and springs Most repairs were made by a experienced VW mechanic who only works on dieselsThe rear brakes are in need of full servicing, and though the car is quite drive-able, there is scraping when the brakes are applied.Questions are encouraged!
