Hello all. I am selling my 2001 TDi 2 door golf for three reasons. 1 - a new member has just been added to the family so I need a 4 door and have decided to buy a Sportwagen, 2 - now that there is another member of the family, I have less time to maintain this car, and 3 - I recently moved into a new place and don't have the best workshop setup for maintaining this car.
The craigslist post: https://vermont.craigslist.org/cto/d/2001-volkswagen-golf-tdi-2/6749529061.html
Now, on to the car. I bought this car for the original owner in 2006. At the time the car had 80,000 miles on it. All of the paperwork she gave me indicated that it had been maintained at the dealership where she purchased the car. The car now has 208,000 miles on it. While I've had the car:
Now the tough stuff. As my life has become busier, some maintenance issues have appeared that I have not been able to tackle for lack of time.
The price will be dependent on what the buyer wants and even then, I'm not really sure what its all worth. I have it posted for $2500 OBO on Craigslist right now (see link above). Feel free to ask any questions if interested. Thanks!

- Rocker panels are rusting out behind the front wheels
- headliner is coming down
- cloth on door panels is coming out in a few places
