Actively on the hunt for a solid, well maintained B4 Passat Variant TDI. Ideally it would something other than green, but the preference is for a rust free and clean example. Documented maintenance records a plus. I am located in the Pittsburgh area but willing to travel for the right one.

It would ultimately depend on the vehicle, but on the high end somewhere around 6-7k.

96 Passat Wagon
I have a 96 passat wagon with the TDI. It has been sitting. Runs and drives but needs a timing belt and tires at least. If you are seriously interested email me. davidnbrown55@gmail.com as I don't get on here that often.

This particular generation of passat is what draws me. Love the aesthetics of the wagon and at over 6 and half feet tall I need something with a semblance of space. The age doesn't bother me as much as finding a properly maintained example. I have spent the better part of my driving career with 80s and early 90s Audis and am accustomed to their effect on one's wallet.

Hi swill983, my wife and I have a 1996 B4 V (red) for sale. We are in Washington State, so not close to you, but thought I'd reply just in case you're still on the hunt and are willing to consider purchasing from far away. Also, ours has been completely rebuilt. And we have no idea what to ask for it...we paid $15k for it 2 years ago after having a ton of work done to it, thinking we would keep it forever. Then we decided to try for more kids...and now we're thinking we need something like a minivan (gasp). Anyway. Here's a link to more info: http://www.vwb4.com

Shoot me a message if you have any questions!

He's in the market for a B4V. V = Variant/Wagon, not sedan.

Just finishing the touch up work on the old B4V... Have the dash apart for heater core, swapping GLX leather interior and improved carpet (nothing is new after all...), re-foaming HVAC while I have it apart and could be convinced to do 5-lug swap for the right price. PM me with your contact info & I'd be happy to chat.

Also my sedan is going up for sale too... May put A/C back in if someone is offering the right price
