Here's what I'm looking for:
2001.5-up 1.8T
*must be manual
*must have sunroof
*must have the AWV engine code (NO exceptions! If you have an 01, doublecheck...it's on the timing belt cover)
*must have full maintenance records with detailed history
*no GLX or Turbo S models, only Sport or GLS
*no yellow (unless it's double yellow),platinum grey, orange, techno blue or black
*red is preferred, but green is a close #2.
*beige interior NOT allowed
*the lower the miles the better, but with what I'm doing to it, miles are unimportant
*I will take cars with blown motors or transmissions
*I will NOT take a car with a damaged interior (if you smoke and there are burns, I won't buy...if you have kids, sorry, but I'm not cleaning up sippycup residue or baby puke...plus, child seats leave marks in the leather if so equipped)
*I will NOT take a car with a damaged rocker in any way unless the price is REALLY good.
$10k is my cap. Can go higher if someone goes a bit lower on the turbo kit I want.
I sound demanding, but I settled on my last NB, and this time, I have time, so I'm not going to. Bank loan is ready to go whenever the right car pops up. Will travel pending a VW safety inspection on the car.
