Its my clean title 1984 maroon Volkswagen 1.6 Turbo Diesel Jetta, no not the common diesel rabbit, very well maintained. It has 224,xxx original miles and the odometer still works, however the clock doesn't lol. The car is mechanically sound, I bought it off a vw enthusiast fireman last year. The key point of this car is that it's cheap to fill up and gets LITERALLY 43-45 MPG...300+ miles on a full tank. The registration is cheap too and no worries about smog because Diesels past a certain year aren't required to be smogged. its a really cheap and reliable car that comes with a tons of cool stuff...
The Maintenance.
Recently in the past 10,000 miles I redid the front brakes, front wheel bearings, brake booster, clutch, suspension (coilovers), and changed the oil (6/8/13)
The Extras(can be worked into the deal):
I bought a set of the E-Code European headlights from a guy in germany off of vortex. The Fenders are rolled and pulled, but you can't tell because of the fender flares :) I also tucked the front bumpers because I hated the diving board style. Also I have a MK1 GTI front valance in black that I've been meaning to pop back on, but I just don't have the time.
The Reason:
I just got a better job a few weeks ago so I decided to buy another car, particularly an E30. So I have no real use for the Jetta anymore. It'll be sad to let it go, but it's been a great car to me. It's got plenty of character and life left in it.
The Bads:
No rips inside but some of the stitching has come undone in the rear seat headrests but that is it, the interior is in pretty good shape for an 1984 VW
Couple of dings thanks to college parking idiots.
The passenger side window was broken into in such a weird way by crackheads in SF's tenderloins, who also stole a broken radio from it, but left the speakers which still work. They chipped the paint on the door pillar but its okay.
The paint isnt great, its BARELY starting to fade on the hood, but its not noticeable
It has no radio at the moment, But I have another deck for it, just not hooked up.
AC needs recharge
Heres a video you can see the CONDITION OF THE PAINT WHEN ITS NOT WAXED LIKE IT IS IN THE PICTURES ON THE AD and the rear seat unseamed, and in the video it has the STOCK HEADLIGHTS which i can sell the car WITH for a LOWER price. The PAINT LOOKS BETTER IN PERSON lol.

Are more diesel scandals about to erupt?
Fri, Nov 20 2015More automakers may soon be embroiled, like Volkswagen, in diesel emissions scandals. According to the Daily Kanban, either the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) or the Deutsche Umwelthilfe (DUH) will soon announce from 10 to 15 more cases of automakers cheating national diesel emissions rules. The outlet says three of the incidents are attributed to Opel. Studies conducted by the DUH, the University of Applied Sciences in Bern, Switzerland, and the UK's Leeds University found that Opel's diesel Zafira, Corsa, and Vectra models emit more NOx than European regulations allow when tested in ways that go beyond the European testing protocol, such as when done on a four-wheel rolling road instead of a two-wheel rolling road. Opel said the accusations had no merit. Specifically on the Zafira, the DUH asked Opel about the emissions findings, and Opel said that no General Motors software contains any measures to enable cheating. Opel then tested a Zafira of its own "both on a two- and a four-wheel roller dynamometer," finding that "The emission behavior determined in each case does not differ from one another." That makes this a case of he-said-she-said for the moment. The Daily Kanban's sources say the cheating methods "range from the crude to the highly sophisticated," with those at the latter end complex enough to render Volkswagen's methods "pedestrian." As for any automakers who might be named, the matter of real-world emissions exceeding a legal limit doesn't mean a carmaker has designed systems that cheat, it might mean the company designed the car to pass a test.

VW midsize crossover production headed for Chattanooga
Fri, 10 Jan 2014Potential labor woes aside, it looks like Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN factory must have done something that impressed the bosses in Germany, because it sounds like the three-year-old factory is set to score a second model.
The factory currently builds the Passat, and has been in the running alongside VW's Puebla, Mexico factory to build a new crossover vehicle, likely based on the CrossBlue Concept. According to Bloomberg, a pair of unnamed sources have confirmed that Chattanooga is the favorite ahead of an official announcement.
When last we heard about the CrossBlue Concept, word was that a production decision had been delayed over concerns about the three-row CUV's business case. That August 2013 story claimed that a decision regarding the CrossBlue would be pushed back until early in 2014, which means we're ripe for some sort of news, whether good or bad.
Autoblog Minute: VW Q3 financial woes, 2015 Tokyo Motor Show
Fri, Oct 30 2015Consumer Reports pulls its Tesla recommendation, the U.S. Copyright Office offers a ruling affecting car owners, VW gets hit hard with third-quarter losses, and lots of exciting news from Tokyo. Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Consumer Reports pulls its Tesla recommendation, the U.S. copyright office offers a ruling that affects car owners and gear heads, VW gets hit hard with third-quarter losses, and lots of exciting news from Tokyo. I'm senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. After a week away testing vehicles for Autoblog's Tech of the Year award, we're back in the office to recap the week in automotive news. [00:00:30] One of the things you might have missed was Consumer Reports pulling its recommendation of Tesla's Model S sedan. The blemish for Tesla comes after a tally of reviews from customer surveys. The most common problem areas for the Model S as cited by survey takers included: the drivetrain, power equipment, charging equipment, body and sunroof squeaks, rattles, and leaks. So lots of stuff. Though they could not ignore a score of "worse-than-average", Consumer Reports still [00:01:00] highlighted the fact that the Model S was "the best performing car" they've ever tested. Telsa CEO Elon Musk took to social media to defend his sedans saying: "Consumer Reports reliability survey includes a lot of early production cars. Already addressed in new cars." And, "Tesla gets top rating of any company in service. Most important, CR says 97% of owners expect their next car to be a Tesla (the acid test)." In Financial news, Volkswagen took a hit and reported an operating loss of [00:01:30] $3.84 billion. This is the first such loss for VW in 15 years. Toyota reclaimed the crown as the world's largest automaker as well. It's important that it's not all doom and gloom for VW though in Q3. Sales revenues were up and the company's automotive division boasts $30 billion dollars in liquid assets. It's a sizable war chest that will no doubt come in handy, as the company has yet to feel the full brunt of the diesel emissions scandal. Good news for gear heads. The US copyright office [00:02:00] ruled in favor of mechanics and car owners by granting an exception to existing copyright law. The law was originally meant to prevent software pirating and bootlegging of Hollywood movies.
