Gorgeous 1960 Volkswagen Beetle. This is a very original numbers matching car. The restoration of this car was just completed about two years ago. During the restoration the car was taken down to the metal and repainted its original factory Mango Green. Very vintage, very cool! This car also has its original engine that was rebuilt approximately 15000 miles ago and this car runs and drives flawlessly. It is an absolute joy to drive! This car also received a new front end, beam to wheels as well as new brakes all the way around. This bug has good tires and was converted to a 12 volt system. It does need to have the wipers installed, they are new and will go with the car. As you can see the car is very straight with NO dents or dings. The interior was also done with new carpet and the original seats were recovered. The pans are rust free and solid. The glass is all good and free of any cracks or chips. The dash is perfect, uncut and free of any scratches but the new owner will need to add a radio. This is a very nice example of a very early bug that is ready for daily driver status or the car shows. Clean and Clear title in hand! We offer a money back guarantee which is as follows, if for any reason you or your representative are not satisfied with the quality of, or the vehicle is not what you expected when you arrive to pick it up, we will refund any money spent toward the purchase price of the vehicle. Guarantee is void once the vehicle leaves our property. We will be happy to assist in transport arrangements, either with the carrier of your choice or in helping to secure reliable transport. Please do not hesitate to give me a call with any questions or concerns you have. I look forward to hearing from you. Dave 316-299-1596

Volkswagen's 261-mpg hand-built XL1 headed for Geneva

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

After years of rumors, development and testing, the Volkswagen XL1 is finally about to become a reality. The project that began life as a daring 1-Liter concept car in 2002, will finally get its production-ready curtain call at the Geneva Motor Show in just a few weeks.
As soon as it hits the streets, the two-seat XL1 will instantly become the most fuel-efficient and most aerodynamic production car in the world. The car uses a plug-in hybrid system to achieve mind-blowing consumption of just 0.9 liters of diesel fuel consumed every 100 kilometers (and average of roughly 261 miles per gallon). Plus, the XL1 can go up to 50 kilometers on its battery power alone. Coefficient of drag is a miniscule 0.189, thanks to a tiny frontal area and an obviously slippery shape.
XL1 power comes from a two-cylinder diesel motor connected to a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, while the 20 kW electric motor is fed by a lithium-ion battery. Both combine to give the XL1 performance figures that are, while not stirring, not shabby considering its extreme frugality: 0-62 miles per hour comes up in 12.7 seconds and top speed is nearly 146 mph.

VW midsize crossover production headed for Chattanooga

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

Potential labor woes aside, it looks like Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN factory must have done something that impressed the bosses in Germany, because it sounds like the three-year-old factory is set to score a second model.
The factory currently builds the Passat, and has been in the running alongside VW's Puebla, Mexico factory to build a new crossover vehicle, likely based on the CrossBlue Concept. According to Bloomberg, a pair of unnamed sources have confirmed that Chattanooga is the favorite ahead of an official announcement.
When last we heard about the CrossBlue Concept, word was that a production decision had been delayed over concerns about the three-row CUV's business case. That August 2013 story claimed that a decision regarding the CrossBlue would be pushed back until early in 2014, which means we're ripe for some sort of news, whether good or bad.

Audi CVT suit settlement given green light, 64,000 cars covered

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

Audi drivers, listen up. If you bought or leased a 2002-06 model-year A4 or A6 with a factory-installed Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) that failed, you may be entitled to reimbursement under a recently settled class-action lawsuit with corporate parent Volkswagen.
According to Automotive News, the settlement covers about 64,000 vehicles and alleges that "manufacturing and design problems caused the transmissions to fail and left owners stuck with repair costs." While the suit also argues Audi was aware of these issues (going so far as to hide that knowledge from consumers), the settlement stops short of acknowledging any wrongdoing by the German automaker.
Audi drivers are eligible for a cash reimbursement if their CVT repairs occurred within 10 years or 100,000 miles of the date they bought or leased the vehicle before June 19, 2013. To be eligible for compensation, drivers must submit a claim form (found here) with supporting documents by November 18.
