This car is a daily driver and I am still using it to commute to work. It is a very reliable car in a very good condition given its age and mileage. I never had any problems with the car.

A lot of necessary repairs have been done over the past year or so and I believe you can drive this car for at least another year with no repairs except the necessary oil change every 3k. Below you will find a list of the repairs as well as the problems of the car. Repairs(replacements): November 2011:new oil change at 128300 September 2011: New driver side window regulator. Passenger side is still good. May 2011: MAF sensor and vacuum hoses replaced at 126200. April 2011: Tune up at about 126000 New spark-plug wires New spark-plugs New Air filter. August 2010 New battery with two year replacement warranty with receipt at Strauss Auto (I have the receipt) June 2010 at over 118000 miles replaced: Timing belt Water pump (metallic not plastic) Timing belt Tensioner. Crankshaft sensor Oxygen sensor. April 2010 2 New front tires bought from eBay (you can check my eBay feedback; New Kumho Solus KH25 Tire(s) 205/55-16 55R16 2055516 (item number 390131340441), April 17 2010). 4 wheel alignment after the tire installation. Note: The rear tires where replaced along with the front ones in spring 2008(don’t remember exactly when). I didn’t replace the rear tires in April 2010 as they had and still have a lot of threat left. Check the pictures. My guess you have at least 15-20K miles to get out of them. They are Kumho Solus KH16 March 2010: New Gas filter. New Cabin filter. Previous repairs, accessories. New brake pads installed in late 2009 (Oct-Dec. don’t remember exactly when) still have a lot of life remaining. All 4 shocks where replaced in summer of 2008 around 100k The car also has all weather OEM mats (see pictures). Aftermarket Sony cd radio was on when I purchased the car 73k. CONSSmall insignificant scratches and dents all around, not really visible unless you pay attention. The most significant damage is a crack on the rear bumper on drivers site. Still not really visible. Airbag light is on (was on when I bought the car). I know from my mechanic that the door air capsule is triggered because he read it on the computer. It doesn’t affect NY inspection at all. Check engine light is currently off. It sometimes gets codes p1128 & p1582. I replaced the vacuum hoses and the MAF sensor and it is coming on when I drive for a long time on the freeway (not city driving). According the the link below it needs a throttle body cleaning/ resetting:http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive/Rec/rec.autos.makers.vw.watercooled/2007-12/msg00128.html If you have a cheap vac com that you can get here on eBay you can reset it every time it comes on and have no problems. The car can pass emissions inspection if you reset the error codes. The rear bumper is pretty beat up from parking in NYC. I recommend you come and take a look at the car before you bid, has a less visible crack on the drivers site. The upper cloth (headliner) of the car is stapled (see picture). The leather on the doors is also stapled on edges (also see pictures). The starter sometimes makes a short whistling noise when you start the car. This is due to lubrication of the starter. I found the problem online but I didn’t think it was worth repairing. It has been like this for at least 2 yeas now and there isn’t any problem other than the short sound All the problems I mentioned don't keep it from driving. I have mentioned everything I know about the car so you can make your decision. Given it's age, the car is sold AS IS. If you want more pictures send me a message!
