This has been a good car, but our family just doubled in size with twins this Fall, so we now have a minivan in addition to our jetta wagon TDI. I recently started using the commuter rail to get to work, so I drive very little these days. I don't want to continue paying taxes on a third vehicle when we barely need two. Plus, the extra cash will help us as we look to buy a house. That said, I'm willing to keep it till the twins out-grow their baby seats if I can't get a good enough price for it.

Not so great features:

-Scratch under front bumper, passenger side.
-Small nicks in paint on hood and front bumper.
-Center-right vent directional-switch is broken. It looks fine, just doesn't turn the vent.
-Remote key fob only works when close to vehicle; probably needs a new battery (IMPEX has them).
-I lost the small cover for the tow eye-hook in the front and bought a replacement that doesn't match the paint (white vs. yellow). I don't notice it, though, unless I look for it.

I'm going to be posting on some other auto sites and probably eBay. If I sell it here, though, then I'll donate 1% of the sales price to the forum.

I live within 20 minutes of Dulles Airport in Northern Virginia and would be happy to pick a buyer up.

PM, post, or email with questions or if interested. I can take specific pictures and even video as requested. We can exchange phone numbers, too, if you'd like to talk.
