Reluctantly for sale is my Jetta. I've not owned this car for long, around 6 months, and was really looking forward to finishing her off for next years show season, but unfortunately due to a change in circumstances, I no longer have space for two cars and she has to go.
Spec as follows,
Early '92 Jetta GX in Black, 1.8 8v carb. No knocks or rattles from engine or gearbox, runs sweet as a nut, gear selection feels tight and positive, a lot better than most others I have driven. Surprisingly, the carb is working as VW intended, the autochoke working perfectly on all but the coldest of days, and even then its fine after a minute or so. I've been using it on my daily commute and i'm currently averaging 38mpg, which I don't think I can complain at really. sometimes suffers from fuel evaporation in the float bowl after a long run and takes a few turns to staart, but an electric pump would solve this easily. Folder full of history with the vehicle, too much to list. The previous owner also fitted a new clutch, water pump, timing belt and tensioner in September of last year, with reciepts to prove
Currently sat on Momo Arrows, 16x7J, on 25mm adaptors front, 30mm rear. 195/40 tyres, could do with a pair on the front before too long. JOM coilovers off my old Golf, were brand new about a year ago. Adjuster rings are free and well greased. The front and rear arches have both been cut to allow extra clearance for the wheels.
Body wise, the car is very solid, with no rust in the usual places. The only major issue body wise is a reasonably sized dent in the O/S front wing, something I was going to sort for next season. Good wings will be included in the sale, just requiring paint. Currently fitted with a golf front, but will be sold with a full Jetta front included, needs one headlamp adjuster to make complete. other than that, there are some car park dings but nothing a good dint man couldnt sort in a couple of hours. Both front arch trims are damaged from running low, could do with replacing but only really noticable up close. US style running lamps in the front indicators. 16 valve clocks with rev counter, showing 94k (will increase slightly as used daily). Actual mileage around 116k IIRC. Alpine double-din radio fitted in the centre console, complete uncut centre console included with the sale should you wish to revert back to standard. Currently fitted with a Polo GT smaller steering wheel, again, original will be included with the car should you wish to revert to standard.
MOT until June next year, Tax until end of December, but can tax at buyers expense if required.
Overall, A good original car that requires very little over winter to bring up to a very good standard. Not many of these left in this condition now.
Couple of pictures
Price wise, I'm looking for around £1000, taking into account the few bits of work required. No PX please. I am however open to sensible offers.
Any Questions please feel free to get in touch. Located in Sheffield, South Yorks.
Cheers,
Chris
