I'm not sure If I'll keep my current Golf as a spare or not when the time comes. I guess it all depends on what I can fetch for it.
2004 TDI Golf GLS
415,000+ kms and climbing
two full sets of wheels/tires (winter, all-season)
Malone Stage II
no rust to speak of, small spots in rock chips.
in the last year or so I've added/replaced the following items
Shocks, Struts, Springs (Bilstein, H&R)
Rotors, Pads (Brembo, VW/Audi)
Radiator
Fuel Pumps
Cylinder Head and injectors
Timing belt Kit
Most likely a few other things that I'm forgetting.
I have a folder of all the receipts since the car was new. I am not the original owner.
runs great, not a single issue since the head was installed.

Sorry, it's an auto. Buttery smooth.
Had a whole slew of other things replaced while it was opened up, rockers, cams, followers etc.

Google "limp mode tdi"
This isn't really the right thread to ask a question like that.

What should I be asking for? I'm looking for something fair to buyer and me, not looking necessarily for max $$, want everyone to be happy.
2001 Golf TDI

Manual
* Runs great, but starts rough in the extreme cold.
* Leather seats (heated, but not wired).
* Fully functional (and non-leaky 😂  sunroof
* water pump replaced in last 20k
* needs timing belt in 30k
* New (ish) all weather tires (<20k)
* Had rust in the usual rocker/fender area, which I had professionally fixed.
* Needs brakes done soonish.

If it comes with safety then you should be able to get $2500. I selling it as-is then $2K.
