Up for sale AS IS: 2007 VW GTI 4 door with DSG (Auto) transmission. Car is on 3rd owner and is in excellent condition for the, mostly highway, 250,000+ miles. Car was used as a daily commuter (100+miles/day). Title in hand. Sorry to see it go - it was the first car I bought on my own but, it's time. Located in Atlanta area.

•Factory options include package 1 and 2 as well as factor VOTEX kit.

Mods:

•The only performance modifications other than a stage 1 APR tune and factory DG Springs.

The Good:

•The car has been well taken care of and full vehicle history including all maintenance will be provided via USB drive for next owners reference.

•Headliner replaced within the last year.

The Extras:

•Leather bound original owners manual

•Rear Trunk Cover

•Factory black mats

•GTI Monster mats

•Extra set of tinted tail lights modified w/ amber turn signals



The Bad:

•Upon the most recent inspection it was determined that the car needs a new turbo.

•There is an issue with the transmission that has not been identified. The car runs normally and there are no issues with operation but there is a whining noise which is prevalent mostly at cold start ups after car has been sitting and in the reverse gear. Please see short video for reference.

•The top of the factory air intake came off when a vacuum hose came off in the engine bay and is no longer present.

•The latch mechanism for opening and closing the engine hood is broken but functional. The handle used to pop the hood in the interior has no positive feeling when pulled and the hood does not “pop” but, it does unlock the hood. There has only been one known issue noted of closing the hood by a 3rd party during a windshield replacement.



The Ugly:

•All exterior lights fully function on the vehicle. There is one factory projector fog light and one after market HID fog lamp as the opposites where damaged in two separate debris incidents on the highway.

•Front black portion of the gril has a crack in it and the factory votex front lip was damaged from road debris. A replacement for the lip will be provided as a part of the purchase (unprimed or paint)

•There are some scratches in the paint work typical of a high mileage vehicle but, there is one nick just above the windshield which has gone through the paint.

•Crack in the engine cover during 2nd ownership period.

•Interior lighting was previously replaced with LED bulbs and there are some that flicker (foot well area).
