Year:1999 Mileage:239900 Color: is in great condition
Location:

Winfield, Pennsylvania, United States

Winfield, Pennsylvania, United States

Over-all Condition
For sale is my dad's dependable TDI Beetle. It was my daily driver, but I bought my own car. The bug is awesome! The first owner was a lady. Dad is the second owner and keeps it in great condition. He is an owner/operator trucker and loves his diesels. When we got the bug, Dad mainly used it on the highway on his commute. I've also driven the car quite a bit, and I'm a girl. Dad just put new snow tires on the car around 2,000 miles ago. Miles aren't exact, as it's still being driven here and there, but after all this time it still runs with its ORIGINAL CLUTCH, STRUTS, AND SHOCKS. That's proof that the overall condition of this car is fantastic!

Good Specifics
  • Leather interior is nearly perfect.
  • Exterior is in great condition
  • Engine runs smoothly
  • Transmission works perfectly.
  • Averages 43 mpg. Doesn't seem to matter how you drive it.
  • Top of the engine replaced at about 140,000 miles (due to water pump quitting, allowing the timing belt to jump)
  • Timing belt kit replaced at 218,648 miles
  • Serpentine belt replaced at 218,648 miles
  • Vacuum line replaced at 218,648 miles
  • Glow plug wire harness replaced at 218,648 miles
  • 2 wire connectors replaced at 218,648 miles
  • Power supply relay replaced at 218,648 miles
  • New snow tires put on around 2,000 miles ago
  • Hitch is installed (Use for small hauls)
  • Smoke free
  • Odor free
  • Pa inspection good through 8-14
  • Registration good through 9-14
  • Original clutch
  • Original shocks
  • Original struts

Bad Specifics
  • Normal wear and tear
  • Leather - tiny cut on the driver seat, and some wear on the driver's seat (pictured) and around the gearshift (pictured).
  • Exterior - tiny dent on the bottom left side rocker panel I think and a missing inner fender. Some minor chips and scratches. Check out the pictures. It's not bad. I'm just being thorough. One pictured paint chip about the size of a small piece of gravel (pictured)
  • Gear linkage could use lubrication or something. Sometimes it's hard to shift into first gear.
  • Shocks and struts work fine, but you may want to replace them for a smoother ride.
  • It hasn't been a problem lately, but in the interest of full disclosure sometimes a small lever (I forget what it's called, but I'll show you.) in the engine sticks and prevents the car from starting. If you wiggle the lever the car starts right up. If you keep it oiled you should have no problem
  • Hitch is starting to rust (pictured) but can easily be removed.
  • AC lost its charge. We have the part to fix it, but Dad wasn't able to do the work.
  • Headliner is beginning to sag around the console, but not badly. (pictured)
  • Again, I am NOT a mechanic. I tried to represent the car thoroughly, but please come see it to judge for yourself. (Due to weather, I didn't get all the bug specks, etc off the car before taking pictures. As I said, it is still driven. Please keep that in mind when looking at the pictures.) Thanks, and happy bidding!

Volkswagen says goodbye to Eos, Routan in 2015 updates

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

Usually automakers announce changes to their lineup individually on a vehicle-by-vehicle basis, but sometimes it all comes at once - especially when the changes are ones we either expected or might not otherwise notice. That's the path Volkswagen has gone with changes to its US lineup for 2015.
The biggest change is what we already knew: that the new Golf arrives for the 2015 model year, bringing with it the new GTI, Golf R, e-Golf and Golf SportWagen (to replace the previous Jetta wagon). But there are some new details as well.
For starters, Volkswagen has finally confirmed that both the Eos and the Routan - both long rumored to be on their way out - will be exiting this year. The Eos hardtop convertible, pictured above, will linger for one last year, its Sport trim replaced by a new Final Edition with 18-inch wheels, two-tone leather interior and enhanced equipment.

Volkswagen profit jumps as it warns of a cooling auto market

Wed, Oct 30 2019

FRANKFURT, Germany — Volkswagen says its profits jumped 44% in the third quarter thanks to a more profitable mix of vehicles in its lineup but warned that global car markets are slowing more than expected and lowered its forecast for annual sales. After-tax profit rose to $4.42 billion (3.98 billion euros) as revenues rose 11% to $68.27 billion (61.42 billion euros). The sales margin of 7.8% exceeded the goal of 6.5-7.5% as vehicles bringing higher profits took a larger share of sales. The Wolfsburg-based automaker pointed to the headwinds facing the industry by saying that it expects "vehicle markets will contract faster than previously anticipated in many regions of the world." It said sales would be "on a level" with last year's record of 10.8 million vehicles. Previously it had expected a slight increase. The company said its profits would be in the lower end of its forecast range. Global automakers are facing a slowdown in sales amid disputes over trade and from pressure in the European Union and China to develop and sell low-emission vehicles that require heavy investment in new technology. Ford and Renault have issued profit warnings in recent days, while Daimler, maker of Mercedes-Benz luxury cars, lost money in the second quarter and is expected to outline a cost-cutting strategy for investors on Nov. 14. Volkswagen is leading the push into electric vehicles in Europe by launching its ID.3 battery-powered compact car at prices it says will make zero local emission vehicles a mass phenomenon. The company was able to increase earnings in the quarter despite an 18% rise in spending on research and development.

Volkswagen adding R-Line trim to Touareg, Tiguan for 2014

Fri, 11 Jan 2013

Volkswagen introduced its aggressive R-Line appearance package on the CC and Beetle last year, but later this year, this treatment will also be applied to VW's crossovers, the Tiguan and Touareg. Both sporty-looking utility vehicles will be unveiled next week at the Detroit Auto Show.
The 2014 Tiguan R-Line comes standard with bi-xenon headlights and LED daytime running lights, and the package adds 19-inch wheels, grey fender extensions, body-color side skirts and a liftgate spoiler. Inside, the R-Line adds a flat-bottom sport steering wheel with paddle shifters, a black headliner and numerous metallic trim accents such as the stainless scuff plates, the aluminum pedals and metallic finish on the instrument and door panels. The Tiguan R-Line will be offered in front- and all-wheel drive configurations.
As for the 2014 Touareg R-Line (shown above), this model gets an ever more distinctive look with an aggressive front fascia, 20-inch wheels and dual oval-shaped exhaust outlets in addition to the painted side skirts and LED taillights. Similar metallic interior trim pieces found inside the Tiguan R-Line will also make their way into the Touareg as well as gloss black accents on the instrument panel and center stack.
