This thing needs to go. Has 280k+ miles on it. Starts and runs but the fuel tank is filled with E36 M3 and it's clogging the fuel pump. I'm tired of screwing with it since the GRM Challenge is beyond my means (f'ing gas prices and all).
Trades? Offers? Gutted from the front seats rearward. Still have the whole interior in a pile on the garage floor. Would take VW parts, guns or other cool stuff on trade or cash or whatever. I just need it gone or else it's going to the crusher minus the Momo steering wheel, the Fuchs and some other goodies. Car rides on H&Rs and has a tuned ecm (not sure what spec). Transmission/clutch changed out somewhere close to 200k. A friend of mine used it to commute to Michigan for school. Has a rebuilt title. The roof was caved in and repaired. Looks rough.

Oh man I have always wanted one of these. Remember 007 Timothy Dalton drove an Audi wagon in The Living Daylights. :)
I have no VW parts or guns, though. Anything else interesting to you?
How about my old '07 Challenge Audi 4kq runs and drives great, but you may want to paint it ;)

I'd consider it. Do you have any pictures?

Not sure what you mean by your question. This is a 10v car.
My VWs are 16v.

I need a welder. Could always use more tools. Wheels (4X100). Whatever you got. I'd take cash on trade as well.
Ooh, I've still got those 4x100 VW BBS wheels. Those + some cash?

I don't remember what you've got. Are they the Helios blue Jetta wheels? It's been a while...

You're right, I want to paint it.
Some silly questions: Do you still have front and rear bumper? What does/doesn't work? I'm not execting ice cold a/c, heated seats, etc. Just want to know if all the lights work, if it has heat, you know, the basics.
Hate to see those Borbets go. They make the car look almost acceptable in the Harlequin trim.
This is a picture of the Borbets that would go with the car, the picture makes it look 10 times better than it is, really needs to be refinished.I used it as my DD before and after the Challenge, all lights,wipers,heat,gauges,windows work, has a stebro exhaust, non heated seats, and I have all the bumpers and related parts in the garage.
The sunroof opens tilt up rear, but it is slow to open slideing back so I just used it as a tilt.
The AC is there but it needs a new line from the compressor, but I can suply a used one, don't know if AC works though.
I was told it had a Crane cam in the car when I got it and I can honestly say it does pull up to the higher rpms better than my other stock 2.2 CGT.
It has a tan leather interior but I can supply a gray cloth one.
The only real problem is a small crack under the passenger side wiper blade and it needs a RR door handle.
What I'm really looking for is the turbo motor,harness and driveline from your car, you say it runs but it has a fuel issue. Was it a good running car before this problem?

Yes. The car still runs good right after I clean the fuel pump inlet. It has plenty of power but it clogs the fuel pump very quickly and starves for fuel.
do you have a pic of the engine, a '91 200TQ Wagon is supposed to be a 20V car, maybe it's not a '91, I just read up above you said it's a 10V. Has the engine been swapped out already? I've got all the 10V motors I want, I'm looking for the 20V.

Nah, I'm sure it's a 10v. I must have the year wrong. I'll go look again. I never drove this car except on test runs in the driveway and on my country road. It's not plated or insured so I never checked closely. Sorry for the confusion.
I think I'll just crush it. I'm done with it.

Pete,
If you still want this thing, let me know. I'm tired of screwing with it and need to get it out of here.
'91 came both ways, so it could be a '91 with a 10v.
yeah, but the quattro/wagons were all 20V,the FWD were 10V. 89 and 90 were 10V only.

Oh man I thought this was long gone...
I wish I had something interesting to offer in trade. Any need for an antique Johnson outboard? Umm... I have some 13" 4x100 steelies with tires! :) I have a front bumper and a rear engine cover from a '72 911... A rear disc conversion I never put on my EF Civic...
Bah. I really don't have anything exciting. How much cash would you want to trade?
