2003 Volkswagen Golf Tdi 5 Speed Manual Alh Excellent Condition, Diesel Vw on 2040-cars
Farmingdale, New Jersey, United States

There is NO RESERVE so as long as there is at least one bid it will sell.
For sale is my 03 Golf TDI with the last of the great highly sought after ALH motor and 5 speed manual transmission. I'm the second owner. I bought it from an older woman, ~60ish, and her mother at 128k miles around last November. It just rolled over 135k the other day. I've been using it to commute to Rutgers 5 times a week and as a daily. I honestly thought I'd be keeping it a lot longer, but I'd like to put some money into my other cars. Mechanically it's great. It was always dealer serviced prior to my ownership - I have some maintenance records and a summary history of all visits to the dealer. I'm only going to list the major and recent service. 81k - $1800 4 Glow Plugs Glow Plug Relay Glow Plug Wiring Harness Front Sway Bar Bushings Cabin Air Filter Fuel Filter Brake Fluid Flush *Other Misc 84k - $1000 n75 Replaced e-brake cables replaced 89k Rear Pads/Rotors 96k - $3200 4 New Tires (since then 2 have been replaced) Front Pads/Rotors Timing belt Tensioner Rollers Water Pump Accessory Belt *Other Misc 106k Shocks/Struts ____________________________________________ This is everything I've done since I bought the car: 12/5/13 Alignment (Steering wheel is still a little off center, but drives straight) Thermostat Wastegate actuator Front Control Arms Motor/trans Mounts Wiper Blades 12/15/13 Washer pump Rear wiper assembly Hella horns 5/2/14 Driver Door Lock Pros: Great working car for commuting. Everything works like it should, it's very basic, no warning lights- runs and drives excellent! Cosmetically the car is good. Absolutely No Rust. Interior is cloth and in great shape. Tranny shifts great, I consistently average 45-46 MPG, 550-570 miles to a tank with $40-43 in diesel, in stop and go on Rt18 to school and around town. Turbo spools instantly and is very responsive. Cons: It has a few scratches, mainly on the rear bumper so please look at the pictures, a few stone chips on the hood, and I resprayed the quarter panel because of a small crease (the color match is extremely good), there is some paint peeling up on the hatch's handle, and lastly one of the cupholders is broken. (A new one is $30 here on eBay and replaces in about a minute of work) The car was involved in a front end collision in April 6th of 2004. I noticed on the summary report from the dealer that 3 things were replaced on Sept 12th of 2005. I called VW and they said the PS headlight, grille, and bumper were replaced. The other accident was in a parking lot and lightly dented the quarter panel and scratched the bumper. I bought the car with this damage. The damage before being fixed is pictured. (Scroll to the very bottom) That's everything. I tried being as upfront and honest about the car as possible. Please don't hesitate to ask questions and I'll answer to the best of my ability. It's getting very hard to find nice examples of these cars with this kind of mileage and with a 5 speed.

VW updates Scirocco with revised styling, new engines
Sun, 16 Feb 2014The Scirocco is undoubtedly one of the better-looking models in the Volkswagen lineup, but introduced back in 2008, it's now been on the market - some markets, anyway - for the better part of six years. VW is said to have an all-new replacement in the works, but before that arrives, the German automaker has announced a facelifted version with revised styling and a new engine lineup.
Set to be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show next month, the new Scirocco benefits from updated styling front and rear, high-tech exterior lighting, a revised cabin space with some throwback retro touches, some new technologies and, of course, an array of fresh wheel options ranging from 17 to 19 inches.
The updated Scirocco will be offered with a wide array of engines right from the get-go, including four gasoline options and two diesels, spanning from 125 horsepower all the way up to the 280-hp Scirocco R. The 2014 model hits European showrooms in August, but unfortunately isn't any more likely to make the transatlantic voyage Stateside than the version it replaces. Still interested? There's plenty to see in the high-res image gallery above and details in the press release below.
VW debuts Get Happy Super Bowl ad
Mon, 28 Jan 2013
Brace yourself for another tidal wave of Super Bowl commercials. Volkswagen has released its spot for this year's big game. Set to air during the second quarter, the Get Happy spot follows one jubilant office worker as he makes his way through the day, spreading joy wherever he goes. The source of his happiness? A Volkswagen Beetle, of course. Now, if you're wondering why a gaggle of white guys are running around on your screen with Jamaican accents, it will help to know the spot is part of a larger Get Happy campaign featuring Jimmy Cliff.
The first ad in the series featured the artist singing his rendition of "C'Mon, Get Happy," complete with a little help from some notorious unhappy YouTube stars. You can take a look at the new ad before it airs below, along with the complete press release for a little more background.
Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]
Fri, 18 Dec 2009Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...
