For Sale: 2006 VW Jetta TDI Sedan – Platinum Gray
I’m selling a VW Jetta TDI sedan, 4 door, in Platinum Gray
color. I bought this car about 3 years
ago for commuting and using bio-diesel. This is a desirable year as these cars can use bio-diesel ( up to 99% )
without issue. Late model cars only
recommend using B5 ( 5% ) bio-diesel or risk voiding their warranty.
This is a manual drive car, 5 speed. Great torque feel from the diesel engine.
Most of the miles that I put on are from commuting from Mountain
View to San Francisco/Berkeley. I put on
about 20K miles in the first year that I owned the car, and about 10K in the
last two years.
This model includes the heated seats ( very nice on cold
mornings! ). Even heated side mirrors.
If you are interested, please bring your mechanic and check
it out.
Cash preferred, will also accept money order from major
bank. Will not accept personal check.
Some highlights:
· Mileage: 211544
· Clutch at 170K - $1555
· Turbo, Camshaft, Timing Belt – 198K, three

Full disclosure

damage that I chose not to fix.
