'87 16 VALVE SCIROCCO FOR SALE!!



Hello dear scirocco fans and friends! My name is Meredith Phillips and I've got a '87 16 valve scirocco up for sale. The history of this car is filled with times of both trouble and great fun. I've put about $5000.00 US into her in the year and a half since I got her. I bought her from my ex on Valentine's Day of 2004 and have since put every penny I have into getting her back into shape. I've kept every single sales receipt and almost every replaced car part that's been removed. The problem I have with this car is that it's just too expensive for me to maintain and repair. Don't get me wrong, I love this car very dearly and it makes me terribly sad to have to sell her. I just can't afford the parts to fix her again. Her problems are as listed : 1) Blown head gasket; cooling fluid gets sucked out of #4 cylinder out to exaust. 2) Burnt clutch from getting un-stuck in loose dirt.  I replaced the clutch when I first bought her and it seems I have burned it up trying to get off of the
 side of the road. The head gasket was blown because she started to overheat one afternoon on my way home from work. This has happened to me once before and I had it repaired but I didn't replace the temp. sensor. (oops!!) So, as of right now, I don't have anything to drive to work. I just picked up a '72 SuperBeetle but it also needs some minor work. But hey, it's a lot cheaper to replace parts on a Beetle than a Scirocco.... I'm going to be sad to see my baby go... she's the first car I ever bought... I'm going to ask $1500.00 US dollars to start, if anyone you know would like her, please let me know. I am located in the town of Ridgecrest, Ca which is about 3 hours northeast of L.A. My info is as follows.

Please, someone help me out. Thank you for your time. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
