I really have a sickness...... I've been driving past this a few times a day for the past week at the dealer by my work. Its been sitting out back in the mud with a little tear in its eye. Like a sucka, I stop to find out it's the mechanics special. Crap ton of miles and a Tiptronic with no reverse. Seems solid other than that and a nasty grumble/shake on acceleration. Feels like an axle. I'm hoping maybe it just needs a solenoid kit for the reverse.
More to come......

It's not how fast you go. It's how well you go fast.
I too suffer from the same illness. That GTI looks real nice and is probably a total score! I think Dietz in Billings has a 125k trans for $600 if it's not a solenoid problem.

I recently sold one with 90k for $200
