That seems remarkably cheap for a early 90s classic VAG. Still has MOT until March 2021 too!

I suspect the incorrect listing location, the wrong year in the title and brief description isn't helping its case.

If the boot sticker is to be believed, it has a Cat too. Given the age, its probably chocked full of rare earth and worth a pretty penny! Early enough to have the non-Cat emissions for the MOT too...

Bet that could be bought and the cat scrapped is enough to more than pay for the car.

I don't think you'll regret it, these are really solid feeling cars, from when German cars were, err, Germanic!

Please tell me you're still the highest bidder, it's only like 103 quid now..

 

Lovely cars!

You may laugh but that is quite a good starter kit at a reasonable price.

Starter kit to bankruptcy.

Unfortunately not, didn't refresh fast enough and missed out.

Still will be messaging the seller, in case the highest bidder doesn't follow through.

I can't help thinking that showing it being dragged out of a garage with a forklift is not the best way to advertise a car with a £2500 start price.

Clearly not worth £5.5k, but who knew there was a US market 505 Turbo Diesel?

KE-Jetronic probably, so the later K-Jetronic with a billy basic fuel mixture feedback so to not pump loads of rich fuel into the cat.  There's still lots of mechanical components so it's not as reliable as the K-Jet or an early EFI car, but they're usually fairly solid.
