Description/Condition:
Although this car is not currently running, it was a daily commuter (65 miles/day) and it is my opinion that this 16 year old Beetle TDI is in 'above average' cosmetic and mechanical condition.
What you see is what you get - I vacuumed the car, but I did not wipe anything down on purpose - nothing hidden.
I'm not sure of the exact mileage - estimate is 230-235k
Condition is subjective, so please use the photos to draw your own conclusions before bidding. I will answerquestionsand provide extra photos as best I can.
