You are looking at a 2003 Volkwagen Jetta TDI diesel 5 speed manual wagon with aluminum wheels. This a very rare combination! The car has a few minor issues, but is clean, and runs as smooth as the day it was new. To get to the point, the issues are as follows:
Dome lights don't work. I had it looked at. There is a bad proprietary relay somewhere that I haven't bothered to fix.
Losing a bit of power steering oil. I have to add about 2 oz. of power steering oil every month or so. Barely noticable, but it is losing it ever so slowly.
Losing a bit of engine oil. I have to add about a quart every 10,000 miles. Barely noticable, but there.
Bushing in suspension. A mechanic had noticed it when I had the power steering oil issue checked out. There's a click noise when you make a hard turn at low speeds.
Needs timing belt. I didn't replace it since I've decided to sell the car. Last done at 159000 miles. You'd need to do this soon.
Small exhaust leak. You can't even smell it, but you can see a bit of leakage near the muffler when the car starts.
Minor wear in driver's seat, and height adjustment is a bit hard to adjust
EGR valve isufficient flow. There's a light on for this one. Basically, you just get a puff of blue smoke when you start the car because of this. I left it that way because then the intake won't get gummed up.
Radio doesn't tune. The stereo works and sounds good, but the antenna connector is cracked, and I never bothered to fix it. Can't get AM/FM, but the rest of the stereo works just like it should. Replace the connector, and it will work fine. Head unit removal tools included.
Rear window washer fluid hose has a crack. Squirting window washer liquid on the rear window doesn't work all that well since there's a cracked hose.
A few spots of touch-up paint, and a few scratches. I've tried to show (even exaggerate) these in the photos.
Missing rear headrests. They were missing when I bought the car, and I never replaced them.
But here's the good news:
All new air conditioner system. A/C siezed last summer, and I had the whole thing replaced. Works well.
New tires in February. I have the paperwork. Warranty is transferrable.
Clutch is strong. No slippage in any gear at any weight on any incline.
Smooth engine. No issues here whatsoever. Even runs well in extreme cold or heat. We had +111°F here last summer, and -10°F this winter. Ran great.
Strong glow plugs. Car starts even in deep cold.
Extra stereo inputs. Accepts SD card, USB flash drive, 1/8" stereo plug
Comes with all manuals and stereo code.
Records of all service since I've owned the car.
If you're handy with these, then these fixes shouldn't be too much trouble. The upholstry has some wear as you'd expect for the age and miles. Please feel free to come by and check it over/test drive it. I've tried to be as honest as possible with the condition, and you are free to completely check over the car, so this car is being sold AS-IS. No warranty, no refunds. I'll accept cash, check, cashier's check or money ordr. I'll need a $200 deposit at offer acceptance. However, if you aren't able to see the car before making an offer, when you come to pick up the car and don't like it, I'll refund your deposit. Feel free to email me with any questions.

Bentley considering diesel engine for new SUV
Wed, 05 Mar 2014Turns out, in case you didn't know, the rich are just like regular people. They too are concerned about the environment, even when tooling around town in their super-luxurious Bentleys. So the automaker is weighing the idea of offering a diesel engine in its SUV offering, which could help satisfy customers' demands for more fuel-efficient engines.
Chairman and CEO Wolfgang Schreiber told Autoblog in a roundtable interview at the Geneva Auto Show that the automaker is researching whether or not a diesel engine makes sense for the brand. Bentley, owned by the Volkswagen Group, could in theory use a diesel engine from anywhere in the Volkswagen Group family. We at Autoblog have hopes they'll revive the V10 TDI used in the VW Touareg until 2010, but ever-stricter emissions laws would likely make that problematic.
But rich people aren't so much like us that they'll be worried about petty things like pricing. Schreiber admitted the diesel engine could be a $15,000 option, which he said customers would probably find "acceptable." Given that the cheapest Bentley today starts at $177,000, typical customers probably won't be diddling around worrying about an extra 15 grand.

2014 Volkswagen Beetle GSR is black and yellow, black and yellow
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Way back in 1973, Volkswagen decided it was high time to take the loveable air-cooled Bug racing. No, it wasn't painted in Herbie colors - Volkswagen called its sport-tuned machine the Beetle GSR, "Gelb Schwarzer Renner" or "Yellow Black Racer." Hence, the somewhat shocking paint scheme.
VW is bringing its sporty black and yellow Beetle back for 2014, and you can see live photos of it above. It's got a 210-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine under the hood (that'd be the hood up front, unlike the car's forebear), and a six-speed manual or DSG automatic transmission sends those ponies to the front wheels. Note that this car's output is up 10 horses on other turbo VWs, and the Jetta GLI and Beetle Turbo for 2013. The 0-60 run takes 6.6 seconds, and top speed is limited to 130 miles per hour.
Besides the in-your-face black and yellow paint, the GSR is outfitted with a large rear spoiler and 19-inch wheels shod with 235/40 tires. The bee-like hue carries over inside, with yellow stitching on black leather. Only 3,500 will be produced, each with its own unique plaque. Pricing has not yet been announced, but you're free to read through the press release below all the same.
