'87 16 VALVE SCIROCCO FOR SALE!!



One small... question;

I quote ". 2) Burnt clutch from getting un-stuck in loose dirt.  "

How often does one have to be mud-dawbing on dirt roads with a Scirocco
before they decided they should own a Jeep?

(Grin)

Good luck on your sale.

Subject: '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. 
Meredith Phillips
228 w. Benson Ave.
Ridgecrest, CA 93555
(760) 384-1116  home
(760) 372-4153  other.
 
Please, someone help me out. Thank you for your time. Any help will be
greatly appreciated.
