Acquired this from the old man 12 months ago, who has owned it from new, for work duties and general wafting around. It's a 1.9 TDI PD130 Tiptronic but I'm toying with the idea of converting to manual.

Since I've owned it, I've treated it to some cheap coilovers and added the 19" BBS reps.

Anyone want to have a guess at the mileage? Running gear is original and has only had an alternator and brake light switch apart from normal service items.

Yes it is as clean as the pics suggest

 

let me guess 300k lol there good for that,

 

Very nice. I'm gonna guess 250k?

 

Very close.... Just clicked 313k and still going strong

 

I converted a 52 reg a6 from multitronic to manual and we couldnt get it to stop thinking it was an auto, so threw abs fault up all the time!

 

The idea is to buy a complete car with a manual box and take everything I need

 

Nice family car, i need a bigger car to. But don't now what to buy.

 

Looks ok from the back bit the front end is horrid.

 

it`s a VW so i guess the third engine is in it now

 

Probably.

 

Nnnnooooooo its a VW fellas.

 

As I said, NOTHING has been changed other than an alternator and brake light switch

 

Each to their own mate, it wasn't bought to be pretty

 

I like that belies it milage so well

 

I got all my bits from a donor car of the same year/engine code. Dunno if yours will have a multi chronic box in it???????

 

Seen this car many times, honestly doesnt look anywhere near the miles. The interior is as clean as it was when new - i've known Phil and his old man for donkeys years.

Awesome reliable old bus! (prob the kiss of death now LOL)

 

Looks nice that does.

 

Mine is just tiptronic and I've heard so many horror stories about them but somehow it's lasted
