Default FS: '98 Jetta TDI ~~~~ 50 mpg car!! ( Des Moines, IOWA)

I'm trying to sell this car for my girlfriend's dad since he's not so internet savvy :D All questions and inquiries can be dealt through me though. PM me or call me (Dinko) at 515.865.2157 for a test drive.

The car:
1998 Jetta TDI (Turbo Diesel)
206,000 miles
Clean title

If you want all the factory specs for the car...I'm sure you're brilliant enough to use the internet to search for them. Otherwise, the car is immaculately clean. The owner has been a mechanic his whole life. He is in his late 50's. He has a shop out on Highway 141 and he's replaced a lot of stuff on this car recently to get it ready to go to the new owner.

Brand NEW additions to the car:

-Factory turbo
-Brake pads
-All 4 tires
-A/C recharged
-Clutch/Flywheel
-All fluids flushed and filled
-New wheel bearings and lots of new bushings (car feels really solid while driving)
-Professionally detailed inside, outside, and under the hood

-(Probably a few more things, I'll find out more details later)

I'm currently daily driving this car since the owner is fixing a few things on my Galant. My last full tank of gas (14 gal) I went a lil over 700 miles and that wasn't even all the way to empty. I could probably get a more out of it if I watched really closely how I press the gas in stop-and-go traffic. If you do the math...700 divided by 14 gal is about 50 mpg. I read an online blog about a lady that got 832 miles out of one tank of gas with one of these cars. On my current tank of gas I already have 180 miles on the trip, and the needle is exactly on the 3/4 full mark.

The car seriously runs like a champ. I wouldn't think twice about driving it across the country if I had to. Give me a call if you are serious. Otherwise just leave the trash outta this thread!

Starting price is $4500/obo


(just water droplets under the hood, it's not damaged)
