I have been tdi shopping for months and this forum has been a massive help. I've really wanted an alh 4 door but between the rarity of a clean car and the craziness of agreeing on price for one with a seller it's been brutal. I have considered the mkvi cars as of late due to feeling like I get more for my money and I can do an emissions delete down the road. I found two cars that either one is a pain to get between flying to it and driving home but so be it. I plan on keeping the car for a long time so it's worth it in the end. assume both cars are clean, rust free, well maintained, and mechanically sound at the time of purchase. Both cars are 4 door golf with manual trans.
there is a 2003 5 speed manual. he's asking 7k I offered 5600. it has 24x,xxx miles and I'm not sure if I want to guy much higher for than that. if you guys believe it's worth more feel free to let me know. I feel like at 150k miles no problem at all but it's a good bit of miles no matter what chassis it is. apparently this guy is firm on price so I don't know that it's in my realm. hypothetically similar car around 6k for argument sake
the other car is a 2012 with 102k miles. they agreed to 8000. cloth seats moon roof heated seats seems quite clean. 6 speed manual.
they are both 4 door manual tdi. these are important to me. I maintain cars myself and don't think I'd ever go to crazy on modifications other than fuel mileage helpers and things to maintain reliability since I do drive 4 to 500 miles a week.
