No Reserve: 2004 Volkswagen Passat GLS 1.8T 4Motion Wagon 5-Speed

This 2004 Volkswagen Passat GLS is one of 89 wagons for the model year in North America that was built with a turbocharged 1.8L inline-four mated to a five-speed manual transaxle and 4Motion all-wheel drive. It was registered with one owner in Washington until it was acquired locally in 2015 by employees and then the owner of SK Motorsport in Bellingham, where it has been a shop car since 2022. Finished in gray over gray leather, it has GIAC engine-management software, a receiver hitch, 17″ alloy wheels, heated front seats, and a Monsoon sound system with a CD/cassette stereo. This B5.5 Passat wagon has 199k miles and is now offered at no reserve with a clean Carfax report and a clean Washington title in the name of the seller’s business.

The engine has been fitted with GIAC engine-management software according to the seller, who reports that the clutch assembly was most recently replaced along with the rear main seal in June 2021, after which the timing belt was also replaced.
