Price $5,950 cash only Odometer: 66,416 VIN: 3VWBR31C24M422313
Have had difficult time determining what fair price is as there are so few available on Craigslist, Ebay or other sites to compare, and didn’t find much Beetle sales info on this site for comparison either, but have certainly enjoyed the technical advice I have previously used. Compared to really nice vehicles I have seen on this site I feel like I am bringing my ugly sister to compete in a beauty pageant. Currently on Craigslist for my Houston area there are only two others listed, one has over 200,000 miles and the other one within $200 of my price has more than double the miles. Looked at those TDi’s in other states and found similar pricing with minimum 100,000 miles plus on them.
Cold AC, good acceleration, body is in good shape, has some small paint blemishes on the hood.
Bought car about a year ago just as a temporary interim vehicle until decided on which new vehicle to buy but found it so reliable, economical, and enjoyable to drive I procrastinated selling it. But now giving in to my boss that says no more of our executive level customers going to lunch with me in my bug and climbing in to backseat thru front passenger door.
In the less than year I've owned it have replaced plain wheels and cheap covers with new wheels and 2 new tires, new battery, Kenwood bluetooth radio for hands free phone and Pandora radio, new SunTek Carbon 35/25 window tinting with custom-fit windshield visor, new boot-shifter leather, new tail-gate struts, new key fob and installed color matched Bumper-mounted safety backup sensors. Recent VW dealership work includes new Dog-bone mount, Upper intake pipe and TDi oil service/change. Replaced forward and rear radiator thermostat/heater sensors, new VW logo emblems on hood and trunk, and cabin air filtration filter. Previous owner reported new clutch and headliner. Only known issues are bottom of driver’s side rocker panel has dent under it, seatbelt/airbag warning light stays on, door panel cards showing their age, chipped rear drink-holder, and apparently previous owner had glove box broken into which I have repaired the latch to make it functional again. Ive included the VIN number if you want to check the CarFax, when I bought the car I felt confident based on existing CarFax info that mileage was accurate.
