I just bought mine but found another amazing one with power widowns. an 03 w/ only 12k mi.

The guy wants 12,500 for it. It's in Rubicon WI.

It will go fast. Do you want the info on it? check Craigslist for Rubicon WI.

x2, but reasonably close to New England would be preferred. I still gotta sell the Jetta first though.

Be sure you check out the blue book. That's a bit more than what I paid for my 03 Golf 2-dr 5sp that I just bought about a month ago. KBB.com estimates an "excellent" private party sale value as $11K.

I did a google search for "2 door Golf TDI craigslist" and under advanced, I specified the time frame of 1 week.

This gave me 2 door 3 golfs the entire country. I bought this one in VA after I got a local TDI guru to check it out.

Nice! I think I need some new pics, the newest one I have online is over a year old and without the R32 bumpers.... :)

OK, you paid $9700 for this prime specimen, right? What will the final cost really be once you pay for transport across the nation (or the time lost and expenses to go fetch and drive back) along with performing all the service/maintenance including bringing the interior flaws you specified up to our (club member's) standards? Get what I'm driving at? I know, *** do I know, eh? ;) Later!

Who cares, it's his money. Let him spend it any which way he wants to.
My comments were not aimed to criticize Max's decision to purchase this vehicle.

It may take a bit of thinking, remembering, or even searching in order to understand what I am referring to here, know whadda mean? ;) Later!

$850 to ship in from VA to my door... still have not even seen it in the flesh yet.

It's in perfect mechanical order but bone stock.

By the time I put in a PD150 crank, Rosten rods, ASV pistons, turbo, injectors, air mods, ported head, cam, larger pump, FMIC, HID's, Aristos, R32 trim, .... you can figure it out better than me how much that would cost.

Peace Out

Spending....

Not a whole lot different than buying any other used, stock, 100K (or less) TDI and facing the engineering calamaties that VW has bestowed on the masses in an unannounced manner. Need examples? Just ask...:rolleyes:

Nice lookng Golf, good luck with it.;)

That's fine and dandy and I truly wish you the best in this proposed project. ;) My interjection was more geared toward displaying the total real cost of such a vehicle after all expenses along with some of the PIA tasks involved in such to bring her up to our standards (tdiclub standards) from a stock standpoint. Afterall, this is exactly what I have been doing for many years now. The hard part is doing this very same thing but, doing it in a way that a forbidden word around here called "profit" can be included into the mix.:rolleyes: Know whadda mean? Later!

I don't want to know how much I've spent on my Golf, I'm in denial.
And of course I haven't even touched the bottom end....
Good luck Pierre, it's a fun road to travel!
