Description
For sale is my 2009 Volkswagen Scirocco GT 2.0 TSI, with just 89k miles and only 5 owners from new.
This is the GT model, powered by the 2.0 TSI engine shared with the Golf GTI, making it a great combination of performance, practicality and everyday usability.
The car is in above average condition for its age, both mechanically and cosmetically.
It has been very well looked after throughout its life, with the previous owner keeping it for around 14 years before I purchased it.
It comes with a stamped service book up to 51,000 miles, along with stacks of receipts and paperwork. Plenty of documentation to show the car has been well looked after and maintained.
I originally bought the car intending to keep it long term and have recently spent almost £2,000 bringing it up to a very good standard. Unfortunately, my circumstances have changed and I now need a van, so the Scirocco is reluctantly being sold.
A considerable amount of work and maintenance has recently been done,
including:
- New 3-piece clutch kit
- New rear crankshaft seal - Completed while the gearbox was removed for the clutch
- New oil pump
- New sump and drain plug
- Fresh engine oil and oil filter
- New Bosch windscreen wipers
- New subframe spacer plates and bolts
- New pollen/cabin filter
- Front bumper professionally painted
- New boot switch
- New LED number plate lights
- New Stainless steel pedal covers
- New OEM style upgraded key
- New OEM gear knob emblem
- New wheel centre caps
The clutch and crankshaft seal in particular are significant jobs and both have now been taken care of, so these are not expenses a new owner should have to worry about.
The car is fitted with 18" Talledega alloy wheels and premium tyres. All four tyres are as new and have plenty of life remaining.
The bodywork is exceptionally clean for a 2009 car and presents very well. There are some flat spots on the bonnet which I never got round to doing anything with. I believe these should polish out with a machine polish but I would rather mention them for transparency. The interior is also very clean for the age and mileage.
The car passed its MOT last week with no advisories whatsoever. It has had everything it's needed and is ready to be driven away and enjoyed.
Viewing is welcome and encouraged. Serious buyers are welcome to inspect the car and test drive it with the relevant insurance in place.
