Description from the seller, in Finnish.

Myynnissä vuoden 2007 Volkswagen Jetta GLI. Gli on mk5 Golf Gti:n sisarmalli ja jakaa pääosin saman tekniikan. Auto on ollut omistuksessani yli 7 vuoden ajan ja sitä on huollettu säännöllisesti ja kulutusosia vaihdettu aina tarpeen mukaan. Auto on hyvin varusteltu ja ikäisekseen siistissä kunnossa. Puskureissa ja vanteissa keskustapysäköinnin aiheuttamia tavallisia kolhuja. Lisäksi etukaarten alaosissa ja tuulilasin yläpuolella ruostetta. Nämä näkyvät kuvissa. Kattoverhoilu vetäytyy/kutistuu näille tyypilliseen tapaan. Auto on ollut jokapäiväisessä työajossa ja toiminut loistavasti. Hihna vaihdettu noin 90tkm kohdalla. Kahdet aluvanteet, ok nastoilla ja kesärenkaina Nokian Hakka Blackit, joissa runsaasti pintaa.

Varusteina mm seuraavat:

  • Nahkasisusta
  • Kattoluukku
  • Tehdasasenteinen takaspoileri
  • AUX-sisääntulo
  • 12v pistorasia
  • Vakionopeudensäädin
  • Penkinlämmittimet
  • Sähkölasit edessä sekä takana
  • Sähkösäätöiset peilit lämmityksellä
