I am a noob to this group and I have been lurking for a while prior to joining up, gathering knowledge. I am a longtime fan of diesels, grew up with diesel M-Bs in the family and the former owner of a recently deceased 92 M-B diesel (450K mi.) I have been admiring VW diesels from afar for a long time and now circumstances present its self to act.
I am looking for a 2002-2003 (preferably 2003) Jetta Wagon GLS TDI under 115K mi, but with the proper maintenance done (fresh timing chain, etc.) Unfortunately, due to a decree from the significant other, it has to be a slush box tranny. As in everything in life, I am looking for one that is gently loved. Price? In the reasonable and right range for the state of the car. I am located just outside of Tampa and am willing to travel to find the right one, but time and other constraints put a distance limit to include Georgia, in addition to Florida.
Thank you for your help and guidance in this endeavor and it is an honor to join a group so passionate about a really neat vehicle.
