CyberHippie Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 So the big question... What needs to be done on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Sanchez Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 not much. We had the top end of the engine rebuilt last year. That cost us $1600.00. New muffler, good tires. I haven't seen the car in a while but the body is in super shape. I'm not sure if the power locks are working... they may not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberHippie Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Cool, thanks for the info... I'm looking into insurance now. That's really the biggest problem. My 98 jetta is quite expensive to insure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lara Posted December 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 However... to add onto Pablo's post (we're on opposite ends of the province right now) ...the car's being sold 'as is' hence the low price. I had the same question cyberhippie, my dad said that he's had a lot of work done on it, as we did. He cant think of anything else that needs to be done, he's between jobs right now and focusing on his Real Estate courses and doesn't need it so he just wants it gone. He'd rather take $2200obo than have to spend time certifying etc. Its a great car. It would be a shame to see those stickers go to waste on unappreciative folks.

Buffy420 Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 [color:green]Will you take 700.... Doesn't matter how much $ you put into the car.KM's tell the life of the car.I got a 87 VW Cabriolet..mint condition, started driving it and the fuckin thing just kept breaking down on me. I got a new transmission, fuel pump, head gasket, water pump, stereo, battery, tires, brakes, gas tank, fuel pump, fuel lines, alternator, starter, wiper motor, door/trunk handles, locks, and tons of other things I can't think of right at the moment.I paid $3000 for the car and put $10,000 of parts into it in two years. I sold it for $1200 cause thats the highest offer I could get for it.So thats why I will only offer $700 for it cause VWs are ment to break down and cost you $.

c-towns Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 sounds like you got a lemon buffy.I bought a jetta that had no oil in it and i wasn't aloud to start it before i bought it. The thing started on the first crank with no oil in it and we rocked it for a year before we had to upgrade, I still see the thing buzzing around town.I'd buy another VW in a second if I could afford it.

\/\/illy Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 On a somewhat unrelated note, I got four VW factory hubcaps for Christmas. The last ones I bought were knock-offs and rusted in less than a year. These are the ones still studied by scientists because they seem impervious to rust even after 30 years at times.This is me smiling! It's going to be a great summer for Jazzy!

lara Posted January 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 Didn't even notice this thread was still alive! Sorry... A belated reply - no, cant take 700. Thanks for the offer though. I'll contact you if we get desperate Bet you $1500 would get you the car. This car is no lemon. Its got a few good touring years on it yet.
