Engine 2.0 16v running on Digi 2 -includes spare ECU and uninstalled vwpilot Digi2 chip -bbm fuel rail -extra VR6 injectors -SS Brospeed (bosal?) header -newer exhaust -test pipe (will need a cat to pass emissions, I just barely eeked by last time) -184ish miles, head was rebuilt at 164k -10k on OEM clutch -New alternator (<4k) -Serpentine Belt setup

-Suspension Neuspeed sport springs Tokico Illumina front struts Koni red rear shocks rear disc brakes 9.4 solid front, but includes 9.4 vented rotors and a set of 10.1 calipers and a MC from my old 16v GLI, so I think its a 22mm MC the front brakes are new, less than 4k miles The wheels on the car in the pics won't be included, but it comes with both a set of snowflakes and a set of teardrops. Comes with stock GLI springs as well.

-Interior Leather Scirocco front seats recaro trophy rear seats sony 5x7 speakers in back I'll probably be keeping the 3.5s from the front for the MR2

-Exterior Quad round lights, Hella inners spare single round grille spare aero setup, will need a new rad support tho.

Here's what the car needs: First and foremost, it developed this weird cooling issue in Feb. where the coolant light will occasionally flash when the coolant level is good, and the car also ran a little hot. When looking at the dash, it never got past the second to last line on the coolant temp, but I never had the time to troubleshoot it. I ran a separate switch for the rad fan, and that didnt change things, so its probably a thermostat, or the rad needs to be flushed. Cosmetically, the car has a few dings here and there, the clearcoat is peeling a little on the C-pillar but it is nothing to worry about. Theres a little rust underneath the car, but nothing severe. The headliner started drooping when I was on a road trip and it wouldn't stay glued back up (I stopped off and bought some 3m stuff, and some rubber cement.) I got annoyed with it and just used a stapler. You don't notice from the front seat, but it can be fixed. This is why the car is only $800. Let me know if you're interested.

I had a similar problem with a '92 Cabriolet, which has (I think) the same gauge cluster. Low coolant warning light would flash without apparent cause, temp gauge would sporatically shoot up to near the red zone. Turned out to be the temp gauge itself.

That may or may not be the problem here, but it is a possibility. Good luck with the sale.
