Jetta syncro – SOLD

[skattrd]

Yes I’m considerring selling one of the 115….
Basically my Jetta needs a couple of bits doing and I have too much on my plate atm. It still runs and is totally reliable – I did a couple of trips to the south coast in it last month (500m round trips) and it managed them without a problem.

1990 “G” reg 108k miles Tax/MOT end Sept 2009.
Its a one of a kind in two-tone red and silver.
Since I’ve had the car (2yrs, 8k miles) its had new front disks, pads, rear springs/shocks, front bearings, GTi – “pb” head, weber 32/34 carb with K&N, plugs, leads, dizzy. Thers prob more but thats all I can think of off the top of my head.
It always starts first time and goes quite well.

Update: Rear brakes now sorted – new pipes, hoses and cylinders on both sides
Rad fan is fixed and now kicks in automatically

Bad bits:
Gear linkage – The spring has gone so theres effectively no gate to get into reserve … been like this since I got it, I just got used to it.
o/s/r wheel bearing is occasionally noisy and will need replacing at some point – not urgent atm and replacement bearings included.
Bit of rust on the back and on the o/s, nothing drastic but I think it needs sorting before it gets worse … n/s looks good though []

None of these jobs are major, but I’ve got too much on to do them myself, as said the car is taxed/tested, starts and runs ok.

Its currently on some 15″ le castellet alloys (rare themselves, 500 sets made) which are worth a bit on their own – I could sell the car on standard wheels with legal(ish) tyres.

Rust on back of car:

Dent on o/s/r door

I’m not sure what its worth but I’m gonna say £750 as its kinda rare, runs well and is T&T until end of September this year.
I’ve got a bit of spare time this week so will see about fixing a couple of the bits that need doing.

Anyone interested either post here or email skattrd [at] gmail [dot] com

I know what you mean. I’ve all ready had someone else ask if I can hold it for a couple of months until the sort out funds. I don’t think this is the right time of year to sell a car tbh.

I’ll see how it goes, but if it doesn’t sell in a week or two I may just sideline it for a while and try again in a couple of months, I’ll keep you posted.

I never knew there was another Jetta syncro in Lincoln, what colour is it and I’ll keep an eye out for it.

its atlas grey and been parked on my brothers drive ever since he got a company car. Im trying to sell my passat at the moment but i need a car for work every day. I might go and see if i can find ways to get the funds faster. Im owed rather a lot of cash from a couple of different avenues, so ill get chasing
