OK guys I'm thinking about selling the 06 and getting an older TDI to eliminate my $500+ car payment. I have found an 01 Golf TDI with around 64K miles (mine has almost 56K). It's a manual trans car and looks pretty solid, not too far down the road either. Here's the kicker. He's asking $8950, but it has a salvage title. He says it's an insurance payoff for mechanical damage and all they replaced was the turbo. I'm not too familiar with the A4's and wondering if you guys could provide some insight on this "downgrade." I have e-mailed him about the turbo failure. I'd hate to know if metal went through the engine.
