Clean on 2040-cars
Woodstock, Georgia, United States
Mk. V GTI for sale, I am the fifth owner. I love the car but It’s time for something newer.
This is a great used car in good condition. The ride is comfortable with a quality interior, one of the best at this price point. The steering, acceleration, and just general driving characteristics are all fantastic. What's even better is how much capability you get along with it. Despite being a two-door the back seats are still spacious and not too difficult to get into. You get a good amount of cargo space as well, even more with the backseats folded down, I was able to fit my mountain bike in it. Fuel economy is pretty great for a turbocharged engine as well, I usually get around 25-27mpg.
Mods: Nothing major, just an aftermarket intake and stereo head unit with Bluetooth.
I've had a lot of recent maintenance done:
Brand new tires, they're barely a month old
Fixed a vacuum leak and replaced the oil dipstick
Replaced the brake booster and brake booster hoses
Replaced the engine coolant temperature sensor
Replaced the oil separator pres. regulating valve
Replaced the crankcase vent valve gasket
Replaced the breather hose
The car is in good condition, especially for how many miles it's driven, however, there are a few (mostly cosmetic) issues with it:
Sunspots on the exterior
Scraped a curb while parking once and the front splitter came loose a little
The passenger seat adjuster is broken off, though luckily the seat is stuck in a good position so legroom for both the front seat and rear-seat passengers is still good.
Front left parking light is out (which causes a warning light). This light would only be on while the vehicle is stationary.
Mechanical:
The only mechanical issue I know of is that the engine thermostat needs to be replaced (this is causing the check engine light to be on). I have the part and was planning on doing it myself but it is a tedious repair and I simply don't have the time. The repair is doable yourself but it might be easiest to just take the part to a shop and have them do it.
VIN: WVWFV71K07W256666
If interested please email or text me. Thank you.

VW using other manufacturing locations as leverage in battle with TN [w/video]
Sat, 26 Apr 2014We've reached a new step in the ongoing drama at Volkswagen's factory in Chattanooga, TN. The United Auto Workers recently dropped its opposition to the union vote and agreed that it wouldn't hold another ballot for at least a year. Now, the new question becomes where VW is going to build its forthcoming midsize SUV.
Earlier, it had been considered all but certain that the SUV, likely a production version of the CrossBlue concept (pictured above), would be built in Tennessee. However, it seems the Chattanooga factory might have competition to produce it. In emails obtained by The Detroit News, VW's lawyer wrote to the Tennessee economic development department in January saying, "While we understand there are some 'non-deal' issues that are causing a delay in the TN solution, VW has been successful in reaching agreement on terms at the alternative locations."
As previously reported, the state of Tennessee allegedly offered VW about $300 million in incentives to build the vehicle there and create an estimated 1,350 jobs, but it later rescinded the deal. Newly leaked documents from NewsChannel 5 (WTVF-TV) in Nashville allegedly show just how close that offer was to being completed. It appears that VW actually sent the government the first draft of a memorandum of understanding agreeing to the incentives, but the state removed the offer in late January.
Volkswagen Golf Wagon leaked ahead of official unveiling
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Wagons ho! These three images of the upcoming Volkswagen Golf Wagon have leaked online ahead of the car's official debut, which may very well be at the Geneva Motor Show. Looking over the photos doesn't really bring any surprises - after all, this is a VW Golf with a wagon rear end grafted on, or basically what we expect next Jetta SportWagen will be.
We can only share these three images at this time, but fret not, folks. There's little doubt that all the details and images will be flowing from Volkswagen in short order. In the meantime, click on the images above to view them in high resolution.
VW exec calls US ops a 'disaster'
Thu, 23 Jan 2014Today in the Tell Us How You Really Feel file we have Bernd Osterloh, head of Volkswagen AG's Group Works Councils and member of the company's supervisory board, labeling the company's US operations "a disaster." Why? Because Osterloh believes VW of America doesn't have the models it needs to be competitive here, hasn't been decisive enough about its plans and German higher-ups still don't understand the US market.
In truth, the top labor rep at the German conglomerate is echoing sentiments we've heard from VWoA executives for years, and there's been the same commentary from dealers: Germany doesn't pay enough attention to what the US market really wants. Even ex-VWoA CEO Stefan Jacoby, who preceded the recently departed Jonathan Browning, said early in his tenure that one of his tasks was to get his German bosses to start delivering what the US market demanded. New CEO Michael Horn is saying much the same thing seven years later, telling Sky News that it has to increase "the speed at which we bring new models to the market and innovation to the market."
Osterloh wants to get "more models" here, including a pickup truck, but we'd wonder if the economics have changed from when Jacoby said they'd need to sell 100,000 per year to make money. Osterloh also wants a decision on where the CrossBlue will be built. Although it looked as if the Chatanooga, TN plant would get the call, the Puebla, Mexico plant is still in the running because of lower operating costs. No matter what happens right now, Osterloh thinks the situation won't get better for another two years when revamped models arrive, but at least the company can start taking the steps for a better US future.
