Mk2 Jetta GLI


You are bidding on a 1991 Tornado Red Jetta with a clear title. The car is being sold as is, it has a lot of miles on it and it has been cared for but not everything is perfect. I will do my best to disclose all information. The car will need the front brakes replaced in order for it to be considered "road safe" but it has a lot more life in it.  It has stock cloth Recaro seats which are in ok shape, some tearing, some smashed foam, I would consider this to be normal wear for the age. The dash and the windshield are cracked, the carpet is not in the best shape. There is a ding in the rear passenger corner by the light which can be seen in the photos. Other than that the body has normal damage for its age, hail spots, fading paint, and peeling clear coat in some spots. The body of the car says 431,333 on the odometer but I'm pretty sure it rolled up from the 200,000 mark. I bought the car when it had around 180,000 miles and it has been a joy! The guy I got it from had the car port and polished by a professional shop at around 160,000 miles and had Techtonics cams installed. He had an aftermarket TT exhaust installed without a catalytic converter and he also had Bilstein HD shocks installed. He told me he used a motor and tranny of the same type with around 70,000 miles. I never got receipts, I took his word for it based on the way it ran... He also had a cooler thermostat in the car but I had it replaced because he was only driving long distances in the summer with the car, and I drove it regularly all year long. It has a strut tie bar in the front. It does not have a radio or rear speakers. It also has Enkei rims with racing tires which will need to be replaced soon. The blower motor and the heater core were replaced in the past couple years. This is all I can think of for now...

I have done regular oil changes with Mobil 15 or 20W50 oil, I have changed the spark plugs and rotor recently. I have a video of me starting the car and running it for a while with a walk around. If you want to see it just shoot me an e-mail.

I have several other auctions running as well so please check them out, of course I do combine shipping charges. Shipping charges are created for U.S. Domestic only, international shipping is available as well. Please let me know if you need a shipping estimate.


A Non-Refundable Deposit of $500 will be due via Paypal within 24 Hours of winning this auction. The remainder must be paid for within 3 days following the end of the auction unless otherwise discussed. Local Pickup Only!


Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

European car sales up 8% in February

Sat, 22 Mar 2014

Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.

VW going turbo-only in 3 to 4 years

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

This really was a matter of when, rather than if. Volkswagen will apparently be the first manufacturer to phase out naturally aspirated engines in favor of turbocharging its full slate. VW is kind of responsible for ushering in this push towards small-displacement, turbocharged engines that's taken the industry by storm. When it dropped its direct-injection, 2.0-liter turbo in the 2005 GTI it demonstrated that strapping an iron long to an engine can enhance the powertrain as a whole. VW made fuel economy gains, while also giving a linear, non-laggy turbo experience that it has replicated, model-after-model, to this day.
Speaking with The Detroit News, Volkswagen's executive Vice President of Group Quality, Marc Trahan, told the paper that, "We only have one normally aspirated gas engine, and when we go to the next generation vehicle that it's in, it will be replaced. So three, four years maximum."
Really, it's hard to get teary-eyed about either of these engines going away. VW has access to smaller powerplants that could easily match the performance of the 2.5 five-cylinder and the 3.6 V6, while gobbling up less fuel and providing a better driving experience. What we are sad about is that a similar statement about the extinction of NA engines came from the Vice President of Powertrain Engineering at Ford, Joe Bakaj. We'd certainly get teary-eyed over a world without Ford's excellent 5.0-liter V8.
