FS 2002 Jetta GLS - $3000

I am the original owner of this car purchased for highway commuting. The car has served me extremely well since 2002 and the last 370,000 miles. I hate to see it go but it should be out there soaking up the miles. I have ALL the records of everything I've every done and almost every drop of fuel and oil put into the car. This is a great car with all the little things that go wrong addressed as needed over the years. It has the complete Kerma Borg S7 turbo and feed line kit for clean install with calibrated Bosio DLC 520 injectors. The turbo was replaced before the original failed. $3000 with tools and manuals. It is a sweet car with many extras including 2 sets of mounted tires with good tread.

Price reduced to $3500 without tools and I'll throw in a used (but never installed ProVent that I bought for a Jeep CRD that I once owned. This car has a recent turbo and rebuilt injector upgrade worth close to $2000 alone. This is a 1 owner car that has been very well maintained with many parts replaced. It has many extras including 2 sets of wheels and tires. I have all the records.

Original injection pump? Pics of injection pump?
Yes, the injection pump is original. Don't know if you believe in these things but it's had the CAT filter for a long long time and Stanadyne or Power Service added at every fill up. I'll pull the cover and take a bunch of naked engine photos and add them to the Gallery. If spring ever comes I'm going to wash it and vacuum before I list it on Craig's list. I must admit I'm a reluctant seller. I posted here first because the folks on this site appreciate a well maintained car and may have an interest in the tools I've accumulated over the years.
By the way most all my posts since 2002 related to the care of this car, so if one is interested you can follow it's care. It has never been back to the dealer for anything other than the brake light switch recall (which they screwed up several times)

There are no leaks from the pump.

This car is still resting in my garage waiting for a new home. Had considered keeping it but it needs to be out on the highway soaking up the miles. Price reduced to $2900.
