Used Car of the Day: 2003 Volkswagen Golf
Today we feature a clean-looking 2003 Volkswagen Golf.
This one has a five-speed manual and recent maintenance/repair work includes a new starter and water pump -- though one of the cylinders needs a new valve.
There are 153,000 miles on this ride.
The body has some minor issues, but no rust, and it looks pretty clean in the provided photos.
If you're looking for cheap (automotive) fun, the asking price here is just $1,250.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

I had one of these with the 1.9 diesel. Great car.
13 spoke rims from a 2005 Golf, I approve, as I have them on my '02 JSW TDI that hit 480k today.
