This car has been my daily driver and I have loved driving her. I want to realize my goal / dream of restoring and enjoying a classic Volkswagen and the Mercedes is taking up space and time. That being said, here are the good and the bad:Good:- Strong turbo diesel engine. Just hit 350,000 a couple months back and still going strong. - I am getting between 21-25 miles per gallon. With a 20 gallon tank I am getting between 450 and 500 miles per tank. - AC blows cold (necessary in San Antonio)- All windows work- Sunroof works- Power antenna works (i fixed it)- Power seats all work- Carpets are in great condition- Clear Title- Original Owner's manual- Has original first aid kit - probably not usable, but cool to have- Full size spare tire- Original jack & wheel wrench- Wind-shield wipers work (I put new wipers on in May, wiper blades don't last long in the San Antonio heat)- Wind-shield washers work (I cleaned out the sprayers and all four work)- No cracks in windshield- Speedometer works- Odometer works- Oil gauge works- Temperature gauge works- Gas gauge works- All lights work- Parking brake works (I had it fixed last year)- Heat works- Defrost works- Radio works- Door, trunk locks work- Charging system works- Battery is strong- Turn signals work- Floor is solid- Brakes are in good condition, brake sensor light flickers. I have been told that it is a sensor issue, so I have procrastinated checking it out.- Power steering works- Transmission shifts smoothly and at correct RPM- Exhaust system passes inspection every year- No collision damageBad: - engine has a slow oil drip. I have had it checked and was told that with so many miles on the engine it is bound to drip. I have done regular oil changes and kept the oil level good and have had no issues, other than some drips on the driveway.- interior shows wear and tear; front seats have tears (I have taped them with brown tape as seen in pictures)- paint has bubbled in a couple areas (on trunk and hood)- No Repair manualIncluded in this sale is an identical car that has been wrecked. Same year, same exterior color, same interior color. Engine in wreck runs and has only 229,000 miles on it. Head casting from cylinder heads of both vehicles is 603 016 14 01. I will provide photos and more information on wreck upon request. Contact me for more information.
