I'm thinking about selling again and going with a 3-year minivan lease
and then buying a nice diesel Odyssey or something of its' ilk when the
lease is up in 2011.It's a wonderful family car, and I love it, but I'm beginning to wonder
if I should sell it at a profit and get some cheap reliable minivan. My commute is only 7 miles now, and with
diesels so valuable (especially in Massachusetts) ...
It's black. Has 89k miles on it (I bought it with 15k on
it and was the 2nd owner). It has sweet 16" BBS wheels with in-great
shape Michelin Hydroedges (only used two years and not in the winter).
I will also include a second set of stock Jetta steelies with Blizzaks
on it for winter driving. Monsoon radio. Power sunroof, etc. The mods
are Sprint 110s and RocketChip II. It's fast! Clutch does slip a bit in cold weather if you gun it.
It has brand-new glow plugs and harness. The TB was done this summer by JollyGreenGiant and it now has the 100k belt.
The car has been super reliable. The Monsoon was replaced shortly after
I got it because it wasn't working properly when I bought the car.
Asking $15.5k or best offer. But I won't sell her for much less than $15k.
The car has:
- Sprint 110 injector tips (adds HP and torque)
- RocketChip Stage II
- 16" BBS wheels with newish Michelin Hydroedge tires (awesome grip)
- A second set of stock steel wheels with Bridgestone Blizzaks that have lots of tread still on 'em
- A tan cloth interior with the winter package (toasty heated seats, heated power mirrors and heated windshield washer nozzles)
- Front and rear head curtain bags and front side air bags
- Sound is provided by a sweet 8-speaker Monsoon sound system with CD, cassette, FM/AM
- Anti-theft alarm system with remote keyless entry and a second key
- Cruise control
- AC
- Power windoes/locks
- Intermittent wipers in front and back
- Rear split bench seat
- Power steering and 4-wheel ABS
- Power moonroof
The exterior is in good shape, but shows the expected wear of 89k miles.
The car was in an accident lin the summer of 2006. I was clipped
while traveling south on route 93 in Boston, spun around, and narrowly
avoided hitting the median (thank God for the awesome Hydroedges). It
was all repaired, and has a new bumper, lift gate, and rear driver
panel.
Here's a photo from Bursaw Oil in Acton, filling up on the sweet bean.
