2000 VW Passat V6 4Motion FS
100K miles
Always southern, NO Rust
Heated Leather seats work and in good condition.
Tiptronic shifter works. Upgraded to Audi A4 shifter.
CD changer works intermittently.
Sunroof

When I bought it (for $4K) it needed a lot of work.

Since I bought it:
New Audi A4 shifter assembly.
Lots of drivetrain work including new front and rear seals on the transmission and "transfer case", a new torque converter, and new transmission output shaft. (car was flat towed)
Painted passenger side door b/c someone keyed the word "bitch" in it really big. The paint code my dealership gave me was wrong, so the painted door is the wrong color.
New CV output seal on front left.
New LFU trailing arm and ball joint.
New set of shoes, with nitrogen.
New battery.
I have recipts for all this work. Most of it was at the dealership.

The car drives like balls. The AWD is amazing. It simply will not brake loose on curves. Drives the same in rain as on dry.

Car came from New Orleans, but not a flood.

Problems:
  • Needs a couple of O2 sensors. This is a problem on these cars, it kills o2 sensors a lot. The check engine light is on, emission code. The car still gets 25 MPG so I haven't don the sensors.
  • Mirror switch is broken.
  • Right mirror doesn't work.
  • Memory seats don't work
This car is pretty rough, but it would make a great commuter (especially in the snow).

Retail book is around $11K b4 mileage and condition adjustments, that's about what I have in it.
I need it gone. $7300 takes it home.

I also had the little wire that craps out the ABS brain re-soldered.

Not for JT.

Bio isn't all that easy to find down this way. I'd like to brew, but I got hobbies already.
Veggie would be my choice.

but for me, veggie 6.2 in the 62 one day.....
 
Yeah, that won't be a project.... :rolleyes:

Well, not as complicated as your explanation in July/August '05 of why you decided not to get a "a little siren of a car." ;p

Hey, speaking of... wanna trade the passat for your 80? maybe the 100? It sure gets good mileage!
 
You have a good memory for a....

Haven't owned a 100 series in over a year.

My 80 gets excellent fuel economy -- sitting in the driveway.

Meanwhile I'm puttering around, getting 50 mpg +/- on biodiesel.

Nope, I'm good.

How much money would I need to add to my 80 for a trade? Come'on maaaaan. I need a commuter. So you think the beast would get 30mpg once the O2 sensors get changed?
