Second farang owner. I have over 300,000 invested in this car between the purchase price of 169,000 Baht and all the items I have replaced.
Car is Mechanically perfect.

In the last year, I have put in:
new window motors in all 4 windows
new shocks

new tie rods for steering
new tires
New A/C
several new sensors in the motor etc
new brakes
new tie rods for the steering
new stereo system
new leather seat covers (Front Seats)
new battery
new lights (headlights, break lights, turn light assemblies)
new running lights

Receipts for all repairs / maintenance.

Has GPS navigation system with back-up camera.

Tinted Windows, Electric Windows and Mirrors, Electric door locks.

I change the oil every 7,000 km and use synthetic oil.

Tune up completed July 23, 2014.

There are a couple of scrapes on the body where a song tau scratched the paint when I was parked.

Runs great, shifts smoothly, cold A/C and very dependable.

Taxes and Insurance paid till March of Next Year (2015) - I live in Pattaya (Jomtien)

err... that's way more often than a VW usually needs. Does the engine burn the oil?

Does the car still have the original VW engine?

Just my preference for maintenance.  A lot of my driving is in traffic back and forth to work with lots of stoplights.  It has the ORIGINAL 1800 cc engine and it's smooth as silk.  Just over 141,000 km.
