SOLD
Hi All,
Hope everyone is safe and using the time at home to get cars ready for spring track season!
2 years ago I decided to take my K04 2008 setup down at 73,000 miles to do a complete build, including forged motor, refresh the DSG which already had LSD. Wanted around 500whp track car. So the car got the works including replacing just about everything with upgraded or OEM. List below of what the car has. So since completion I have had 2 major issues. First issue was on the first and only 3 laps in the car. Tuner left wrong plugs in car, electrodes melted off. With proper plugs in the car runs fine but two of the pistons have little bits of electrode on top so they need to be replaced.
Second problem is the one that just happened. Car has been sitting and I put in the plugs I mention above. It started right off with a flick of the key despite sitting for almost a year. Drove it around the neighborhood a few times and on the way home, just cruising the driver side axle bolts (all of them) came out and put a hole in the trans case. Needless to say this could have been very bad had it occurred on the back straight at AAA speedway going 130+. While I don't usually believe in signs, I am going to go with all the problems I have had with this as a sign that I should do something else.
So I am first going to see if anyone wants to buy this project from me. Trans case has a big hole in case so it cannot be driven and the motor needs a couple of pistons. Sounds great so far, right.
Big price drop from 10K to $5000.00 (new price 9/21/2021) Too lazy to part out.
2008 2dr DSG UG 75Kmi
If no bites on purchase of whole car I will start part out in mid March, ugh.
For pictures you can go to my build post - LINK
This offer is for someone who wants to part out or get in really cheap to go big turbo with a little extra money and time to work on it. I am just worn out and too old to want to do this anymore. I am only posting on the MKV forum.
Car is in Southern California
Now for the more attractive part of the offer. There is roughly 20,000 dollars in parts to be sold and that is selling them at used prices without even considering the engine or trans as part of that 20,000. The body and paint are in very nice shape and paint is glossy and soft to the touch. Headliner had just been replaced along with door inserts. New headlights, foglights, grilles, windshield. It is a very good looking car inside and out.
Description of Stuff most of which has less than 200mi.
