2005.5 MK5/MKV Jetta BRM TDI - 5-speed - GTB1749vc Turbo with PD150 Injectors - 282,877 miles - $5000 OBO

This car has been an awesome daily. Only left me stranded once in 7 years (fuel pump) and it's a blast to drive with the power upgrades. Only selling because I’ve bought a 2015 Audi Q7 TDI and no longer drive the Jetta, otherwise I’d keep another 7 years! If you come to me when purchasing I have a 2-post lift in the garage and you’re welcome to inspect the car thoroughly top and bottom. I have an excel spreadsheet I can share with any potential buyer showing every maintenance item and otherwise that’s been completed on car since I purchased. Located in Buffalo, Kentucky, around 1 hour south of Louisville, KY.

Early 2005.5 Package 1 car (heated seats, dual zone auto climate, rain sense wipers, auto headlights, full MFD+, Moonroof, NO driver memory seat)

Recent Maintenance:

The Bad (full disclosure):
  • For 280k and 16 years the body, paint and interior are great condition for age, but not perfect
  • Large paint chip above windshield (There when purchased and has not grown)
  • Minor rust bubbling on 2 fenders, driver’s rear and pass front. See pictures. Paint still on surface.
  • Driver’s side mirror scratched and clearcoat gone.
  • Driver’s lower seat has split in left bolster
  • Small split in top of dash on pass side (There when purchased, has not grown)
  • Minor oil leak on back of engine, believe to be turbo drain seal. Leaks/burns < 0.5-1 quart in 10000 miles.
  • Minor Exhaust leak in downpipe (can smell if sitting in traffic)
  • Minor Clutch/Pressure Plate squeal on take off sometimes. Has done it since purchased, no better no worse.
  • Auto-down for windows doesn’t work on an off. Regular Up/Down for all works just fine

  • Extra set of wheels, 18x8 RS4 replicas
  • OEM Projector Fog Lights and ECS Wiring Harness included (never installed)

They do not Berks as our tags don't have to be turned in, so it could just be driven home on the KY tags as long as BBottoms is ok with it.

Tempted here as well. Do you know if Kentucky provides temporary plates for an out of state buyer?
I've bought multiple vehicles from out of state but never sold one out of state. I'm not aware of any temp tags KY provides unless you purchase from a dealer. I could inquire though if you are interested. KY does require that I retain my plates when I sell out of state then turn them in, however, that's not really enforced. AutoTrader runs down the KY rules pretty well: https://www.autotrader.com/sell-car/in-KY

I'm sure we can work it all out though. Let me know if you're interested!
