Volkswagen Beetle TDI 2005 - No Reserve
2005 Volkswagen Beetle-New GLS TDI Description
This Beetle TDI is an amazing little car!! I bought it with 130K miles on it, drove it home from Florida to upstate NY and it has been my daily commuter for the past 3 years. Fuel mileage is super - I average about 36 mpg combined - up to 40 on the highway. Average 525 miles per tank. I commute 45 miles round trip and fill it up about every two weeks!
This car runs like a champ - has never let me down. I've had ZERO issues with it outside of regular maintenance. I live in snow country and I've never been stuck or had any problems starting it on cold mornings (even when the temp was -15!). It was originally a Southern car (Georgia & Florida) - there is no rust at all on the body and I have done RustStop each fall since I've owned it to keep it that way. Heated front seats work fantastic and have 5 heat levels. Radio, CD and MP3 aux plug all in good working order. Power locks and windows all work. Currently has snow tires installed on the front and comes with the summer front tires as well - all tires are in great shape. Comes with Weathertech floor liners in the front.
As you can see from the pictures, and as you would expect from a car this age, there are a few nicks and chips in the paint on the front and some typical interior wear and tear. Also, as shown in the pix, the driver's side airbag sensor needs replacing. It came like that and I never bothered with it. Outside temperature display does not work and glove box latch is broken.
It has been very well maintained. In addition to regular oil changes with VW TDI specific synthetic oil I have done the following (work receipts included):
- Timing Belt and Water Pump replaced at 133,700 miles
- Complete Transmission Service at 161,500 miles
- Replaced right and left front drive axle assemblies
- Replaced battery
- New starter
- New brake pads
- RustStop each fall
- New hatch struts
Local pickup or I can deliver the car to your shipper once payment is received and cleared.
