My son has been using my 2000 Golf TDI in California and just bought a newer car. Now we need to part with it after 21 years and over 305,000 miles. It is drivable, but in a worn down condition due to age and miles.

The engine has been very reliable and in 2017 made some minor repairs to the body. I maintained it pretty well and kept it running. Installed the panzer plate quite a while ago. It is in 'working' condition and needs repairs.
  • 5 speed manual transmission works…but noticed it might be starting to slip,
  • Cloth interior is showing its age…roof fabric is sagging,
  • Interior is fatigued…glove compartment door opens and closes but a side part is broken,
  • Hatchback strut needs to be replaced,
  • Heating and cooling fan not working right (fan and filter would need replacing),
  • Minor scratches, but no major rust,
  • Suspension system seems worn down and is rough on bumps,
  • One hubcap missing,
  • Struggled to start in below zero Wisconsin weather…works fine in California.
  • Engine light stays on due to disconnecting an optional hose
I don’t have recent pictures, but can add them once they are back in SF on the 3rd. Not sure what it is worth…but would like to have someone who values a VW TDI have it. At this point I would take $500 or Best Offer.

Please note that the car is titled in Wisconsin.

If only you were closer. I have a family friend whose son is getting his license. Having something to work on, and also lasts a long time would be perfect! Good luck with your sale - that's a crazy price, you could ask more on CL.

I’m interested and would like to come take a look tomorrow if your son is available. I’ll send you a message with my phone number, feel free to call or text any time. I’m located about an hour north of San Francisco.

thanks!
