You are looking at a 2006 VW JETTA TDI  169900 miles on it but currently driving this vehicle so this number may change within a few miles.   I purchased this Jetta to get it up to date and make it my daily driver for my work, but turns out the company I work for just purchased us new cars.  The car drives perfectly and is ready to go anywhere.  As you can see I have gone ahead and updated the the front clip with the GLI front (looks great) and replaced the headlights to headlights with Halo's and LED strips.  I will describe the car to the best of my ability, I have put a lot of money in repairs to get her 100% and should easily do 100,000 miles without any problems or any repairs.  If you have any questions please ask, I am a VW TDI fanatic, my wife owns an MK6 and I have always owned TDI's.  This is a great car, great future commuter car or just a great car to have a rare vehicle that looks like a real GLI but actually a TDI, you get the best of both worlds TDI MPG & GLI looks.  The 2005-2006 Jetta TDI's are the best TDI jetta's personally since they are Pre-DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) which reduces MPG significantly on the newer Jettas.  
The Good:

  • Upgraded GLI front end upgrade 
  • Upgraded Headlights with Halo's & LED strips
  • Taillights have been blacked out lightly to match the car 
  • Replaced marker lights to match sporty style
  • All tires are 80% tread. 
  • AC Blows very cold
  • Heated Seats work perfectly on both seats
  • Power Windows all work perfectly in all windows
  • Vehicle does not have a single leak (no engine, transmission oil leaks or coolant system leaks)
  • To get car ready for being my commuter car about 2 months ago I got the following work done (I have receipts)  
  • Water Pump, Timing Chain, Serpentine Belt, Oil Change, Fuel Filter, Air Filter, Cabin Air Filter, Alternator, Battery (still under warranty for 3 years), Front          Rotors & Brakes
  • 1 month ago I got the Clutch and flywheel assembly done since the flywheel started to make some noise.
  • I upgraded the stereo system to the Double-din Pioneer App radio, works great with iPhones via bluetooth or cables provided
  • Tinted windows 35% legal & window sticker certification
  • Paint & Body get a 9 out of 10 paint is in great condition and overall looks great, no chips or faded areas 
  • Interior get a 9.5 out of 10 looks great, all power buttons work, interior is very clean has original carpets, no tears and overall interior has been well maintained.
  • Vehicle recently passed NC inspection and has no lights on in the dash 

The Bad:

This vehicle was involved in a wreck, the car damage wasn't actually that bad, airbags did not deploy and  parts replaced included hood, radiator support & fenders and this was when I took the opportunity to upgrade the front clip to the GLI style Jetta MK5 front.  The original cooling system was used and actually A/C system was never discharged or recharged since none of these items were replaced or damaged.   The damage was mainly on the upper section of the hood, taking most of the impact from the wreck, vehicle did not have frame damage and currently does not have any type of damage and as you can see from the pictures does not look as if it ever had been in an accident.  I drive this car regularly and enjoy averaging about 50 MPG easily and vehicle does not shake at all, drives great overall unfortunately the vehicle was branded Salvage (to be honest unjustly).  I currently have it insured with GEICO and didn't have any issues getting it registered.  Overall I give the car a 8.5 out of 10 and the 1/2 point loss would be due to the salvage title.  This vehicle has always had the routine 10K miles service and 100K and recently 160K Timing belt and clutch/flywheel.  You will not be disappointed with this car and if you are looking for a dependable car, this car cannot be beat since currently its fully up to date on service.


If you have any questions please ask, I can pick up anyone from RDU (Raleigh-Durham Airport) and this vehicle can basically drive anywhere.  As previously stated I am only selling this car because I honestly am not driving it much and after all of the upgrades and repairs I have done to this car its ready to go on the road.  I require a $500 paypal deposit within 48 hours of purchase, only serious buyers, I will report fake or spoof buyers.  I can hold on to car as long as needed and if you need the vehicle shipped I can help with making arrangements for shipping or dropping off at nearest port.  The remaining balance will be required within 7 days via wire transfer or as soon as vehicle is picked up with a certified cashiers check or cash.  I have used eBay over 10+ years and I can try to help and work with you as best as I can, within reason.  
Happy Bidding and if you need any other information please feel free to let me know.  I will be uploading some more pictures of the car later in the week and if theres a picture in particular you would like feel free to let me know.

    2015 VW Golf R caught getting a flogging on 'Ring

    Wed, 22 May 2013

    The upcoming version of the Volkswagen Golf R is nearly ready for prime time, if this video of the car flying around the Nürburgring is any indication. The all-wheel-drive R seems to make quick, neat work of the corners we see here, and sounds pretty devilish in the process.
    Expectations are that the new Golf R will run a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder (what else?), tuned to produce even more than the current car's 256 horsepower. (Some sources have indicated outputs as high as 286 horsepower, with 280 pound-feet of torque. It's still not clear if Volkswagen will bring the six-speed dual-clutch transmission to the US-spec Golf R in this next go-round or if we'll stick to having only... eh... the stick.
    In either case - watching the video below will only whet your appetite for the new, highest performing member of the Golf family.

    VW Golf GTI wrung out by Chris Harris

    Thu, 27 Jun 2013

    Enthusiasts like nothing more than to crucify modern interpretations of their favorite performance models for failing to live up to some imagined ethos. Even the Volkswagen GTI has suffered its fair share of slings and arrows for growing in size and curb weight. Chris Harris recently spent some time with the all-new MK VII GTI to find out if growing up means giving up on what makes the machine so special.
    Judging by his comments, Harris certainly doesn't think so. Yes, the new GTI is considerably more comfortable than its predecessors, but that's hardly a bad thing. The multitude of driving modes actually seem to add depth to the car rather than simply try to force one tool to do many jobs, and Harris even finds the machine's electronic power steering tolerable. As a result, Harris goes so far as to call the Volkswagen GTI "one of the best cars to actually own." How's that for high praise? You can watch the video for yourself by scrolling below.

    Volkswagen Golf R 400 Concept is a 201-mph hot hatch

    Sun, 20 Apr 2014

    This, friends, is what happens when you shoehorn 395 horsepower into a Golf. You get a three-door hatch that will happily scurry to 62 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 201 mph. Oh yes, we like you, Golf R 400 Concept.
    As we explained in our original post, the R 400 is the long-awaited successor to bonkers Golf creations like the GTI W12 from 2007 and, more recently, the Design Vision GTI. It's powered by the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder found in a number of Volkswagen (and Audi, SEAT and Skoda) products, although it's been heavily massaged to pump out 332 pound-feet of torque along side its amplified horsepower.
    Naturally, it's been lowered and now rides on 19-inch wheels. Outside of those changes, though, mums the word on suspension and chassis enhancements. While this is a bummer, the striking looks of the Golf R 400 more than make up for it.
