I've been offered a passat I've wanted for a while so I will be getting rid. Its done 140k miles on the clock, but it had a brand new engine fitted by Volkswagen at 70k so the engine has only done 70k I have paper work to show this although it has no proof of mileage i was told by the previous owner and it is official Volkswagen lettering. Recently had a fluid and filters service, cam belt due in 5000 miles. The engine runs perfectly. Its just had a new coil pack to remedy a miss fire but its never needed anything else while I've had it. Clutch bites nicely and the gearbox is fine with no untoward noises. The interior is almost perfect no seat wear or damage at all. Its been fully valeted, seats have been wet vaced along with the floor, this car is a non smokers car and hasn't had animals in it while I've owned it. Externally its OK, no rust anywhere. one dent in the passenger rear panel but no paint damage to it and a few scuffs / missing paint on the bumpers but very presentable and absolutely gleams with my lovely wax on it. The paint has always been waxed in my ownership so the deadly pink disease all red cars get has been kept at bay. Its lowered properly on spax rsx coilovers with damping adjustment so even though it is low its still supremely comfortable. The fronts are wound down but still have helper springs in so could go dramatically lower, the rears still have plenty of thread left if you wished to go mental with the lowering stick. The collars on the coilovers are all nice and free. Note the car comes with all the standard suspension parts. Genuine BBS RZ's with all the centre caps and red badges that match the body color. It has a sony head unit, sony component door speakers, cross overs and tweeters all fitted properly not with scotch locks and duct tape. Looking for what it owes me £800 ovno! 10 months mot tax till the end of next month.

The usual "I can vouch for this it's my old motah" spiel...
Belonged to my missus for a couple of years, only ever wanted a replacement alternator and usual MOT bits in that time.
I'd take it back in a heartbeat if I needed it-GLWTS!

Thanks, just wondering do you know the exact mileage of the engine change? Perfect little driver 40-50mpg if driven reasonably, more than 50 if you granny it.

Proper little bargain. I've got a 1.4 6n2, and believe me when I say, 'they are soo easy to work on.' timing belt change-1hr, and that's going nice and steady. Change a clutch in a couple of hours. I did my rear shocks last weekend, both sides-1hr 30mins.
That and 43-48mpg, cheap tax and insurance, make these a great knockabout.

Are you checking your PMs Davey? Sent you one the other week. Was down in Nottingham and after a look. Sure the car will be gone by next time I'm down there, but good luck with the sale.

Sorry, missed this...sadly I don't know the exact date - I cross-referenced the date on the change with the service history for a 'best guess' I'm afraid.
