I've had this car since new.
Lets get the bad out of the way:
-has been in my garage for a solid 6 years.
-Needs turbo, had a VNT 17 on it, its done (no motor damage). I have the OEM turbo, somewhere
-Hit a deer probably 3 years before I stopped driving it. Replaced headlamp(s). minor damage to hood and driver quarter. Drives fine, it was a commuter so I didn't repair it.
-needs battery (duh)
The good:
Always well taken care of. Always used quality oil, have oil UOA's to show that (search my posts here). The following mods:
-FM100 fuel filter
-manual transmission
-PD 150 intake (not on car, included)
-3" stainless turbo back exhaust with side exit
-Dieselgeek skidplate
-Eurojet SMIC
-Custom intercooler piping
-EGR removed/blocked
-Frost heater
-Malone Tune
-Random things: boost guage, EGT, Pioneer aftermarket head unit with ipod control
-Interior in good shape. I commuted for years in this thing so there is wear, but not tears or trashed
-3 oem wheels, 4 steel wheels (I lent the other OEM as a spare to someone at work... never got it back grrrr)
-Hitch
I'm sure I'm missing something here. I can probably get pics sometime. I really need to get rid of this, it's taking up valuable garage space. I don't have the time for it. It's kind of sentimental to me. I almost had it towed away as scrap, but..... I think someone might like it. TDI is kinda a thing of the past. I literally almost tore the motor and transmission out to drop it in my Discover 2 Land Rover, but also decided I don't have that kind of time, as much as I'd like to think I do.
I'm not looking for a lot for it, mostly want it to go to an enthusiast. I could always part it and make some $$ off the parts but I don't really have that time right now.
Vehicle is located in Windsor, CO (Fort Collins). About hour north of Denver.
