It is a 03 1.8t, currently has 78k on the clock. Overall it is in great shape. Minor cosmetic stuff that comes with a ten year old car. Scanned it yesterday. Found a fault with the knock sensor. It wasn't throwing a check engine, the knock sensor is putting out an inconsistent signal( sometimes it runs great, sometimes a little rough) I'll get more pics up when i clean the car up this weekend.

Very nice!

If you torque that knock sensor to spec, I bet it will straighten out.
