Vehicle Detail
I bought this from a family friend. Has been well taken care of. I am heading to college now and need the money as well as you can't have a car there. Here is some pros and cons. Pros-Engine is powerful and pulls strong -Great MPG at 30ish-Great 5 speed transmission, has a nice pretty short throw to it-Super smooth suspension-Tons of speakers and an aftermarket deck-Black dash interior with tan leather seating-All lights work, heater works, AC works but could use a recharge-Glass is great condition-Newer tires, new airfilter and cabin filter-Breaks work great Cons-Has high mileage but nearly 80% of it is highway miles-Family used car, has a few stains on the carpet. The body doesn't have any serious dings, just small smudges -Sunroof and all other power windows work but drivers doesn't and passengers goes up 98% and you can push the last 2%-Leaks a little coolant when it is turned off (asked the mechanic and he said vw circulates the coolant when cooling down and that is when it leaks a little)-Even smaller oil leak-A little clear coat is peeling too. Look to picture for the worst of it-I was also told the tire rods are starting to be worn out. You can feel a tiny wobble almost at 60 mph but at 63 and 57 it goes away.-Cruise control sometimes doesn't work Just want to be honest, so i mentioned EVERYTHING that I saw that could be wrong with it
