Hello, I have a very nice 2006 VW convertible for sale. The car has been babyed and only driven in warm weather and garaged the rest of the time. We have decided to sell it as we hardly ever drive it and it needs to be driven . Its such a cool fun car. My wife and I bought this in 2010 from a woman in Albuquerque NM and I drove it back to CO. The day I picked it up I had not really had any experience with this type of car but I can assure you when I drove back the 700mi to my home I learned a ton and I was very impressed overall. This thing will fly right along and has the wide profile tires and rims and will corner surprisingly well. I had a couple of old vws in the day but believe me this aint your grandmas vw. Since we have owned it we have taken very good care of it and have done all the required maintenance at the dealer near us. I have replace the driver side window regulator, has a brand new battery and the tires still have good tread on them. The car runs great and all the electronics work as they should. This bug has an amazing sound system with speakers on the dash, in the doors and in the back seat area. Its called Monsoon and is a very high quality system. If your not aware it also has the sport shifting system which lets you shift this like a standard type transmission so if you are in the mountains you can down shift and save the wear and tear on the brakes. Its really a cool feature in mountain or street driving and works well. The other item that blows me away is the color of this particular car . Apparently vw used many shades of blue for this vehicle but I believe mine is the best of them all . It has a slight metalflake look to it and is exquisite when you look close at it . I looked hard to find the convertible with the right look and this has the right look with dark blue and tan . The tan also is cooler than black in the sun . The tan roof shows more than the black roof but it shows way classier I think. Never had heated seats and that is another great feature. The outside mirrors have lights in them for the turn signals also very cool. This car is just cool and fun and gives very good fuel economy. If someone were to buy this and take care of it I can see this becoming a classic down the road. It just has a vibe. Please email with any questions and Ill try to get back quickly. We hope this goes to someone who really appreciates the car and I look forward to that person driving away into the sun with a big grin on their face and the wind in their hair. Thanks

Anti-union group files lawsuit against VW and UAW
Fri, 14 Mar 2014The fight for unionization at Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN, factory isn't letting up. Yesterday, the National Labor Relations Board decided to allow anti-United Auto Workers employees at the plant the right to defend voting down the measure. Now, a group called the National Right to Work Foundation has filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of five workers against VW and the UAW for allegedly working together to organize.
The group says in a release that it wants "to block further collusion between the company and the United Auto Workers." It alleges that VW forced workers to attend "mandatory pro-union meetings" and prevented managers from opposing. In a rebuttal on its website, the UAW called the claims "baseless" and said its actions were entirely legal.
One possible problem faces the carmaker in regards to the lawsuit. According to the Detroit Free Press, a recent US Court of Appeals ruling found that neutrality agreements like the one the business had with the UAW could be illegal if the company provided "things of value" to the union. The newspaper also claims that VW held a mandatory employee meeting concerning the election, but workers were free to leave during the UAW's presentation.
How should Volkswagen deal with its diesel problems?
Mon, Sep 21 2015The hounds of hell are bearing down on Volkswagen in the wake of allegations of cheating on diesel emissions testing. In just a single day, Volkswagen's stock has dropped 23 percent and the German government has announced that it is going to investigate a far larger number of vehicles over emissions violations. The American storm is quickly becoming a global one. Volkswagen sells over a million diesel vehicles a year and also has more than 13 percent of the automotive market overall – it was the number one automaker in the world up until the scandal. Yet in a matter of hours, Volkswagen has also become a pariah with potential fines and recalls that may be dwarfed by how the alleged lies and deceit change how governments and consumers view the company. Consumers are really going to be the key to the company's survival. It's those consumers who are really going to be the key to the company's survival. Every single one of them now finds themselves with a product that was sold illegally and may not be registered until recall work is done. What's worse is that Volkswagen doesn't yet have a solution for the emissions issue to offer these customers. It should also be noted that this is not the first time Volkswagen has found itself in violation of EPA emission regulations. Volkswagen is in a world of trouble, so what now? As a car dealer and former financial analyst who took several companies public, I believe Volkswagen can and should consider three points of action that would make an enduring difference in the times to come. 1. Offer affected TDI owners a compelling reason to stay with the brand. Recall work and a cup of coffee at the dealership are not going to be enough to placate current owners. Volkswagen should provide compensation for customers at the earliest opportunity and offer some type of inducement that keeps them within the fold. This shouldn't be the industry's version of a Chuck E. Cheese coupon - a small discount on a new vehicle. Volkswagen needs to offer something along the lines of a strong warranty extension of the entire powertrain (not just the emissions system) or some type of valuable feature upgrade for these vehicles so that owners feel that they have been treated fairly. Perhaps a combination of a brand new navigation system, software upgrades for the infotainment components, or some type of basic free WiFi service would be a healthy act of generosity.
