The time has come to sell my beloved jetta in hopes that someone will get as much enjoyment out of it as i did. It is a 1984 1.6 factory turbo diesel 5 speed. I have done alot of work to the car over the years and taken very good care of it.

It belonged to my cousin who bought it from the original owner out of north carolina. My cousin would drive the car back and fourth from n.c. to lititz pa to visit her family. She eventually gave it to her father who drove it around town on occasion. He had a local vw specialist do all the work to the car before i got it.

Once he sold it to me i drove it around for about a month until the injection pump went out do to bad injectors. The car sat for a couple years until i had the pump fixed and the injectors rebuilt. when I was installing the injectors I cracked the head at the bottom of the threads. I removed the head and had it welded and installed new gaskets and out it back together. The car has been this way for several years now with zero problems. It has 197,000 miles on the motor the trans was replaced with one from an eco diesel and the 5th gear (.71) from the original trans was installed for long distance driving. I still have the original trans but the diff broke so not sure how much is good with it. The pump has been tweaked slightly and a boost controller installed to allow it to run 20 psi of boost with minimal smoke. The exhaust is custom 2.5" mandrel bent from turbo back with no muffler or cat. I have installed aftermarket boost, egt, and oil pressure gauges in the factory center console to keep an eye on everything. The air conditioning has been gone over and all internals cleaned and re-charged with r 134. The heater core was replaced a couple years ago. Both heat and a/c work.

About 2 years ago I had a friend who is a painter sand the whole car down and repaint the car in the original color gambia red. At that time I found a euro jetta front end and clear corners and euro jetta bumpers and installed them. The tail lights are cheap knockoff clear tails that i fixed to keep from leaking and seal to the car and painted red. I have the original tail lights as well. It has raceland coils, all new suspension bushings and new control arms as well as new inner and outer tie rod ends. I bought a set of 2.5" osvw strut caps with mk4 bushings. I just put new brakes on the front and upgraded to the gli pads and rotors.

The interior is all original with the exception of the 4 button turbo diesel steering wheel i got from overseas. It is in good shape for its age with no tears in the seats. The headliner has a couple small tears in it one of which i repaired but it is not sagging. The front windshield seal is new and new chrome was installed in the front and rear seals. It doeas have a factory sunroof that works and doesnt leak. It has a fairly new seal on it as well.

As of now the car has 13" bmw turbine wheels with 165/65-13. I still have the gold rota 15" wheels and will consider selling them with the car for the asking price.

Volkswagen adding R-Line trim to Touareg, Tiguan for 2014

Fri, 11 Jan 2013

Volkswagen introduced its aggressive R-Line appearance package on the CC and Beetle last year, but later this year, this treatment will also be applied to VW's crossovers, the Tiguan and Touareg. Both sporty-looking utility vehicles will be unveiled next week at the Detroit Auto Show.
The 2014 Tiguan R-Line comes standard with bi-xenon headlights and LED daytime running lights, and the package adds 19-inch wheels, grey fender extensions, body-color side skirts and a liftgate spoiler. Inside, the R-Line adds a flat-bottom sport steering wheel with paddle shifters, a black headliner and numerous metallic trim accents such as the stainless scuff plates, the aluminum pedals and metallic finish on the instrument and door panels. The Tiguan R-Line will be offered in front- and all-wheel drive configurations.
As for the 2014 Touareg R-Line (shown above), this model gets an ever more distinctive look with an aggressive front fascia, 20-inch wheels and dual oval-shaped exhaust outlets in addition to the painted side skirts and LED taillights. Similar metallic interior trim pieces found inside the Tiguan R-Line will also make their way into the Touareg as well as gloss black accents on the instrument panel and center stack.

2015 VW Golf SportWagen priced from $21,395*

Thu, Feb 12 2015

Now known as the Volkswagen Golf SportWagen in the US, the long-roof version of the platform gets larger for its new generation in 2015, but it also sheds up to 137 pounds and cuts some money off the price of some models. The base now begins at $21,395, plus $820 destination on all versions, when they arrive at dealers in April. Volkswagen claims that with all of the extra standard content, buyers actually save $700 compared to the previous-gen Jetta SportWagen, despite its lower $20,995 starting price. The S trim is the least expensive model and comes with a five-speed manual and 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder making 170 horsepower. Paying an extra $1,100 adds a six-speed automatic. The SE for $26,995 gets the auto as standard and also includes a panoramic sunroof, front foglights, push-button start and a rearview camera. The top SEL for $29,345 further features chrome roof rails, navigation, a 12-way power driver's seat and more. In addition to the gas engine, buyers can choose the 2.0-liter TDI with 150 hp and 236 pound-feet of torque, and VW quotes EPA estimates of up to 43 miles per gallon highway fuel economy for it. All of the trims with the oil burner come with a six-speed manual, but a six-speed DSG is a $1,100 extra. The base TDI S trim starts at $24,595, which is nearly $2,000 less than the last-gen Jetta SportWagen with a diesel, and buyers also get standard push-button start and a rearview camera. The SE and SEL trims offer similar upgrades as their gasoline counterparts and ring up for $27,995 and $30,345, respectively. Of course, many buyers want extra tech for their cars, and VW is offering two packages of options for the SE and SEL trims with either engine. One adds collision warning, automatic post-collision braking and front and rear parking sensors for $695. The Lighting Package includes adaptive Bi-Xenon headlights, LED running lights and LED interior lighting for $995. VOLKSWAGEN ANNOUNCES PRICING OF 2015 GOLF SPORTWAGEN ? New TDI® S model reduces base Clean Diesel pricing by almost $2,000 ? Newly available driver assistance technology includes Forward Collision Warning and Automatic Post-Collision Braking System ? Larger interior than outgoing Jetta SportWagen rivals compact SUVs for size ? Car will be offered with 1.8-liter turbocharged TSI® gasoline and 2.0-liter TDI Clean Diesel engines ?
