After 3+ years in the family we are selling our 2002 ALH Jetta. This car is not a "normal" used car. The body and interior are the nicest you will find for a 2002 with 146k miles. Not one door ding or dent. No curb rash on any of the rims. The previous owner modified it significantly, in some respects he made it into a show car. Since buying it I raised the suspension back towards normal, put on less aggressive rims, replaced the alternator, battery and injection (fuel) pump all in the past year. I have personally changed the oil with Rotella T6 every 5k miles since buying the car at 110k miles. A partial list of modifications is as follows:
1. Complete GLI interior, no rips/tears in any of the seats front or rear.
2. Injectors, DG race pipe, Omni downpipe, Upsolute chip, VR6 clutch, KYB adjustable Shocks/Struts, Eibachs, Drilled/slotted rotors front and rear, 0.681 5th gear, Ventectomy.
3. Shiny bits including trunk plate, trunk struts, hood strut, dead pedal, other pedals, shifter.
4. Windows have mild tint, I have never been pulled over for a tint issue or had it mentioned in 35k miles of driving.
5. This car is making about 145hp/270tq, vs. stock of 90hp/155tq. It will lay rubber in 1st and 2nd if you floor it.
Other recent maintenance includes:
1. Clutch at 113k
2. Brakes (pads and rotors) at 110k
3. Rear bumper repainted due to backing into my wife's car in the driveway one day at 140k
4. Front air dam replaced due to car being too low before at 135k
5. Radio antennae replaced due to age and cracking rubber
6. Transmission oil replaced at 130k
And then of course there is the bad news. It does have 146k miles, it is 11 years old. 3rd and 4th gears are kind of notchy, but all gears work with no grinding. The suspension squeaks a bit. If the state where you live aggressively tests/checks 2002 diesels for emissions, it will fail due to EGR system being removed. It passed inspection and had a sticker the whole time we were in Tennessee and Louisiana. It has a constant check engine light because of all the modifications.
Ultimately this is a car for VW lovers or lover's of modified cars. My wife drove it as a commuter car for a year and eventually decided that it was too intense for her liking. Now she's driving a bone stock Acura TL and is happy as a clam. It really does get 50mpg at 70mph and better than that at 50-60mph. Around town we generally got about 44mpg. My personal record was 821 miles on 16.4 gallons of gas. I do respond to questions, so please ask. I will not end the auction early for a lowball offer.

Volkswagen lays off 500 Chattanooga workers
Fri, 19 Apr 2013The redesigned Volkswagen Passat has been a decent seller since its debut in 2011, but sales have apparently dropped off enough that the automaker is trimming some of the employees from its Chattanooga, TN assembly plant. According to Automotive News, Volkswagen will be cutting shifts and laying off 500 contracted workers in response to slowing sales.
Currently, the plant has three teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Saturday, but starting May 13, this will be reduced down to two teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Thursday. This will be done to reduce dealer inventory (the article says that VW dealers, on average, have a 97-day supply of Passats) and production capacity (currently running at an annual pace of 170,000 units, which is more than the 150,000 annual units the plant was planned to produce).
This, of course, isn't saying that the Passat has been a failure since VW added 200 full-time employees to the plant in February 2012 to keep up with increased demand. The AN article says that automakers frequently overstaff plants during the launch of a new product - or in this case, a new product and a new plant - but eventually reduce the workers as things run smoother and more efficiently.
Volkswagen Golf R wagon promises to be fast and functional [w/poll]
Tue, 25 Mar 2014Volkswagen's array of performance-oriented Golfs keeps getting bigger and bigger. What started with the GTI has since grown to include the diesel GTD, the hybrid GTE and the most powerful Golf R. But the additions haven't all come down to powertain. There's been cabrio versions of the GTI and Golf R as well, but before all is said and done, there will be one more bodystyle to join the lineup.
That, according to these latest spy shots, would be the Golf R Variant. For those unfamiliar, Variant is what Volkswagen calls the wagon version of the Golf (in some markets, anyway). It offers the Golf Variant with a variety of engines, but as the spy shots reveal, it is now working on bringing the Golf Variant and the Golf R together into one high-powered, long-roofed model.
The VW Golf R Variant would in all likelihood pack the same 2.0-liter turbo four as the hatchback, splitting 290 horsepower between all four wheels. Only in the wagon, it would offer that extra bit of utility. Of course there's no guarantee that Volkswagen would offer the Golf R Variant in the North American market, but considering that the Golf R hatchback will soon be joined in American showrooms by the Golf SpotWagen (as it's tipped to be called here) in place for the Jetta wagon, the possibility is definitely there.
