OCTOBER 2023: Finally Ready to sell as I just found replacement vehicle. Here is my posting from today, OCTOBER 21ST, 2023:



This car is a true Unicorn! 45mpg and better. I pre-ordered my Golf from Martens VW in Washington DC in 2004. 155,633 miles. Runs well. Clean title. 5 speed manual. Pick up outside Portland, Oregon-- Bull Mountain. Mainly garage kept. BRAND NEW TIRES.

Very RARE to find single owner car for this TDI year, with coveted MK4 engine, GLS, and low miles. Good condition and rare to find this package, but Priced accordingly for some imperfections (it is a 20 year old car). Well maintained by Martens VW, Hillside, Old Volks Home in Bend, master mechanics, etc. Have a log of most everything done and tons of records/receipts.

Serious inquiries only. Price is Firm.

The Good:
Runs well
Single Owner, I am the Original Owner.
Mainly Garage Kept
Very low miles for this year and engine (this car can go for at least another 250k)
GLS version and a MANUAL which is so much fun
Brand new tires
Records of everything done
Stereo, cd player and tape player work great. Listen to your favorites from the 80s.

The Bad, But easy fixes if you are mechanical:
Horn just went out
The passenger door is finicky. Need to open from the inside.
Emergency brake works but could be better.

SOLD AS IS.

I am now ready to sell!! Found a replacement finally! Here is my posting from today:

Serious inquiries only. Price is Firm. As Baby Yoda says, "Know what I, have I." If you don't know much about these cult-following diesels, this is definitely NOT the car for you. Also, it's a 20 year old car. Best to be sold to someone who knows how to work on them.

The Good:
Runs well
Single Owner, I am the Original Owner.
Mainly Garage Kept
Very low miles for this year and engine (this car can go for at least another 250k)
GLS version and a MANUAL which is so much fun
Brand new tires
Records of everything done
Stereo, cd player and tape player work great. Listen to your favorites from the 80s.

The Bad, But easy fixes if you are mechanical:
Horn just went out
Sunroof now works great but we fixed a common-place leak in the sunroof. Put tape on it while waiting to be fixed that we never took off.
The passenger door is finicky. Need to open from the inside.
Emergency brake works but could be better.

SOLD AS IS.
