8v for sale. NOT MINE



Not sure if anyone is interested, but I found an 8v. for sale in 
Pittsfield Mass. Here is what the guy sent me about it. I think he 
wants 950 for it.

Lyman:
I've had the car since '96.     I bought it in Colorado with 90k 
miles from the orig owner.    My wife doesn't like the car because 
it's stick and we were given a Taurus from some family.   Thus I'm 
selling it.   It's goldish-bronzish-brown or metalic taupe, I'm not 
sure what color VW called it.     I don't have any pictures but can 
take some digital ones and send them if you interested.      Since it 
was a colorado car, where they don't use salt, it's pretty rust free. 
This is it's second Northeast winter and I had it garaged most of the 
winter.   It now has abour 144k miles on it.  It's just an 8v, not a 
16v.   It's a great reliable around town car.  I've driven it across 
country a few times and it's fine for just one person but gets 
cramped with 2 people and lots of luggage.   I've never had any 
problems other than replacing brakes, tires, and the muffler.   I had 
a helicoil put into one of the sparkplug housings because it was 
partly stripped.      The heater/airconditioner needs work.   The 
mechanical linkages from the controls in the dash have come loose and 
I've never bothered to go in and reattache them because it's set on 
defrost and that's all I ever used.

The reason I posted the car on the web was because I hopped that 
someone who loves VWs would be interested in it.  

Feel free to give me a call if you have any other questions,   
regards,
John
