RED VW GOLF GTI 2.0 4L FRONT WHEEL DRIVE FUEL INJECTION, TURBO, AUTOMATIC . ONE OWNER, BOUGHT NEW AND WAS DRIVEN UP UNTIL 2014. PASSED INSPECTION IN 2014. THEN TAKEN OFF THE ROAD. SINCE THEN I HAVE HER ON A TRICKLE CHARGE SO I CAN KEEP STARTING HER UP AND MOVE HER AROUND . NEVER BEEN IN ANY KIND OF ACCIDENT OR FLOOD. I HAVE REPLACED EVERYTHING OVER THE YEARS TO KEEP HER GOING. HERE'S A LIST OF JUST WHAT I CAN REMEMBER: MONROE STRUTS/SPRINGS, FRONT AND BACK, RADIATOR,BOSCH DISTRIBUTOR, CAP, WIRES, PLUGS, POWDER COATED BRAKE LINES,BRAKE HOSES, ROTORS, FRONT AND BACKSEMI CERAMIC PADS, FRONT AND BACKCALIPERS, FRONT AND BACKMUFFLER,INTERMEDIATE PIPE,RESONATOR,OXYGEN SENSORS,CRANK SENSOR,TRANSMISSION FLUID,TRANSMISSION FILTER,FUEL FILTER,AIR FILTER,GAS TANK STRAPS, POWER STEERING BELT,TIMING BELT,PARKING BRAKE CABLE,IGNITION SWITCH,ANTENNA,FAN BELT, AND SHE'S RUNNING JUST FINE. NEEDS SOMEONE LIKE ME WHO IS WILLING TO PICK UP WHERE I LEFT OFF AND KEEP HER GOING. SHE ONLY HAS 77495 MI. HAS A FEW MINOR THINGS LIKE THE AC DOES NOT WORK, HOPEFULLY IT JUST NEEDS FREON, THE ABS BRAKES DO NOT WORK, NEEDS A THERMOSTAT AND COULD USE A PAINT JOB. HAS SOME MINOR RUST SPOTS HERE N THERE, NOTHING MAJOR. THE HATCHBACK DOES NOT OPEN WITH THE KEY, YOU MUST USE THE INSIDE BUTTON. SHE NEEDS A $16.00 GEAR SELECTOR CABLE, BUT I HAVE IT WORKING FOR NOW WITH A TEMPORARY FIX. STUPID THINGS LIKE THAT. BUT SHE HAS NO LEAKS WHATSOEVER OR BURNING ANY OIL. NO TRANSMISSION SLIPPING, OR VALVES TAPPING, NOTHING. NO PULLING TO ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER WHEN BRAKING, OR ANY BRAKE PEDAL OR STEERING WHEEL SHAKING AT HIGH SPEEDS. HAS GOODYEAR EAGLE GT 14" TIRES THAT HAVE MAYBE 5000MI. ON THEM, AND HAVE BEEN ROTATED. ON ORIGINAL ALUMINUM VW RIMS. IT HAS AM/FM CASSETTE AND A MULTI 10 DISC CD PLAYER. POWER SUNROOF, POWER STEERING AND DISC BRAKES ALL AROUND. MANUAL SEATS AND WINDOWS. BACK SEATS FOLD DOWN TO ENLARGE THE CARGO AREA. HAS ORIGINAL TONNAEOU COVER THAT HIDES CARGO AREA CONTENTS AND DOUBLES AS A BACK SEAT WINDOW SHELF, AND CAN BE REMOVED. SHE HAD AN AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCK SYSTEM, BUT I DISCONNECTED THAT, COULD BE RECONNECTED. HAS A LOJACK SYSTEM INSTALLED, NEEDS A BATTERY(THEY ONLY LAST FOR 5 YRS.) AND TO BE ACTIVATED BY LOJACK.($100.00 ONE TIME ACTIVATION FEE) THE FACTORY ALARM SYSTEM I DISCONNECTED ALSO, BUT CAN BE RECONNECTED. ALSO HAS ETCHED GLASS ALL AROUND. I HAVE 3 SETS OF KEYS WITH REMOTES. GR8 RESTORATION PROJECT OR I HATE TO EVEN SAY IT, COULD ALSO BE GR8 FOR PARTS. I STILL HAVE THE ORIGINAL MANUAL AND RECEIPTS. SHE COMES WITH THE ORIGINAL DONUT SPARE TIRE (LOCATED UNDER THE FLOOR IN THE BACK CARGO AREA) AND JACK/TOOLS, PLUS A FULL SIZE SPARE (NO RIM) AND AN EXTRA BRAND NEW MUFFLER(TAILPIPE). WHERE I LIVE WE GO THROUGH MUFFLERS EVERY YEAR. THIS ONE WAS FOR THE NEXT TIME. WHEN I PURCHASED THE FIRST MUFFLER, IT CAME WITH AN "AS LONG AS YOU OWN THE CAR" WARRANTY. AFTER ABOUT THE THIRD MUFFLER THEY KIND OF FREAKED AND REFUSED TO GIVE ME ONE. UNTIL I MADE A CALL TO HEADQUARTERS THAT IS, THAT'S HOW I GOT THE NEW MUFFLER INSTALLED PLUS AN EXTRA MUFFLER FOR MY INCONVIENIENCE. IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING THEY NO LONGER OFFER AS LONG AS YOU OWN THE VEHICLE WARRANTIES! ANYWAY LIKE I SAID, ALOT OF NEW PARTS, AND I ONLY USED OEM GERMAN PARTS. SHE HAS FULLY SYNTHETIC LUBRO MOLLY MOTOR OIL, PENTOSIN ANTIFREEZE, PENTOSIN TRANSMISSION FLUID, RACING BLUE BRAKE FLUID, CHF POWER STEERING FLUID. CHECK OUT MY OTHER LISTINGS FOR THE OTHER PARTS I BOUGHT FOR HER THAT WERE NEVER EVEN INSTALLED YET BECAUSE SHE DIDN'T NEED THEM YET, EXCEPT FOR THE THERMOSTAT AND CABLE, (HAVE YET TO ORDER THE CABLE ONLINE). I WAS ABOUT TO PUT IN THE THERMOSTAT SHE NEEDS AND WHILE I WAS AT IT, THE WATER PUMP TOO, ONLY BECAUSE IT IS LOCATED DOWN THERE ALSO, NOT THAT IT NEEDS ONE, THEN MY FATHER PASSED AWAY AND I GOT HIS CAR. BEING IT WAS NEWER AND DID NOT NEED ANY WORK, I STOPPED WORKING ON THE VW AND DRIVE MY FATHERS CAR INSTEAD. DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THE VW, BEING I PUT SO MUCH TIME AND WORK AND MONEY INTO HER. BUT I AM TIRED OF MOVING HER AROUND HERE N THERE, SO AFTER THREE YRS. IT'S TIME TO GO. THE 2017 KELLY BLUE BOOK SAYS GOOD COND. $2215.00 AND THE FAIR CONDITION PRICE SAYS IT'S WORTH $2066.00 SO I AM ASKING $2000.00. OR BEST OFFER. BUT I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, IF ANYONE PAYS MY FULL ASKING PRICE, I'LL THROW IN ALL THOSE OTHER PARTS I HAVE LISTED FOR SALE IF THEY ARE STILL AVAILABLE TO HELP YOU FINISH THE JOB. OH YES, I ALSO HAVE THE HAYNES AUTO REPAIR GUIDE/MANUAL FOR HER, A $40.00 VALUE IN ITSELF. YOU CAN HAVE THAT TOO. THEN ALL YOU NEED IS THE $16.00 GEAR SELECTOR CABLE AND YOUR GOOD TO GO. SORRY FOR ALL THE REVISIONS, BUT I KEEP REMEMBERING THINGS AS THE DAYS PASS.STAY TUNED......THANKS FOR LOOKIN AND FEEL FREE TO ASK IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
