I'll let the pictures tell the story for this snappy little VW bug.  I have especially enjoyed the "panoramic" sunroof/moonroof, and I loved being able to fit my bicycle in there and also my lawn mower (and the ramp for getting it in and out).  One of its best features is the "clean" Carfax report and the complete owner's manual that is still with it. The pictures of the insides of the doors show that there is no rust at all. I try to show the imperfections as well as possible: One will show that the "inner hubcap" is missing on the front left wheel.  The picture with the back license plate is meant to show the dings that happened when my bike was put in without a blanket (they were touched up). Then there's a view of the whole back seat but then another meant to highlight a little square mark in that back seat leather. There's also about a 1-inch square mark you'll see behind the right rear wheel.  There is also a scratch on the driver's side (touched up) and a few little stone pings on the hood. Tires have lots of goody left.

Up until the gas gauge went out one of our very cold mornings a few weeks ago, I could say, "Everything works:  Sunroof, heated seats, digital clock, outside thermometer, cruise control, power locks and windows, radio, power seats, excellent A/C and heat; but the gas gauge did stop working. Its other "quirks" are that a couple of the idiot lights are usually (but not always) on (the ABS and check engine; my mechanic assures me there is no problem, just a sensor). And one other thing it started doing on the cold mornings is within about 10 seconds of starting, it will give 3 "beeps" (like when the door is open with the engine running) and the thermometer light will flash on and off for a few minutes while you're driving.

Here's what has been put into it recently:

* New water tube, new water hose, and top off coolant; NEW FRONT BRAKE PADS AND NEW FRONT ROTORS for right and left sides (July 2013).

* A new cable between the gas tank cover and the lever inside that opens it, as they had stopped "communicating." (July 2013)

* New water pump, NEW TIMING BELT, new drive belt (October 2013).

* NEW BATTERY (November 2013).

* NEW IGNITION SWITCH (January 2014).

* A new radio was installed; AM/FM works, but the CD does not work. However, it does have inputs for your MP3 player or USB, and the car itself has wonderful speakers.

* I should say somewhere here that I only have 1 key.

FOR 30 CENTS A MILE (FROM COLUMBUS, OH TO THE AIRPORT NEAREST YOUR HOME), I WILL DELIVER THIS VW ANYWHERE IN THE UNITED STATES!!

 (I did this when I sold my RV on EBay, and it worked out beautifully. Obviously, I would need payment in full for the car and the mileage before heading out; and delivery would need to be scheduled mid-week (when airfare for my return home is about half what it is otherwise). Of course, if you'd rather pick it up here, I'd be happy to meet you at Port Columbus Airport.

Touring the Volkswagen Museum in Wolfsburg

Mon, 23 Sep 2013

Forgive the ribbon up top - this isn't so much of a Read This as a Look At This. Ran When Parked took a tour of the sprawling Volkswagen Museum in Wolfsburg, and while there's a spot of text about the different and unique vehicles on display in the rotating exhibits, it's largely the collection of pictures of odd, one-off VW-badged cars and vans that excites. If you're a fan of the weird and wild, this is a post you'll want to look at.
As RWP points out, this is the larger, but less busy, museum targeted purely at Volkswagen products. The smaller AutoStadt museum, meanwhile, covers a much broader swath, with products from other Volkswagen Group members. Click on over to view the extensive gallery of high-quality images from Ran When Parked.

Volkswagen hatches hotter GTI in Geneva

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

The all-new seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't even launched here in the United States, but over in Geneva, we're already getting our first glimpse at the hotter GTI hatchback. The fancy new Mk VII Golf is already off to a healthy start with positive reviews in Europe, and we have no doubt that this next GTI will work hard to regain its title as king of the hot hatches.
The big news for this generation of GTI is that for the first time ever, Volkswagen is actually offering two different power grades for the model, both relying on the 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four. Standard cars pack 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, but an optional performance pack ups the horsepower number to 230. Hitting 60 miles per hour takes 6.5 seconds (6.4 with the performance pack) and top speed is quoted at 153 mph (or 155 with the performance kit). Volkswagen will continue to offer the GTI with both six-speed manual and dual-clutch transmissions.
On the visual front, the sub-3,000-pound GTI adds the usual bit of hot hatch aggression over the standard Golf, and those changes carry over to the interior with a flat-bottomed wheel and, of course, plaid seats. She's certainly a looker, and while some of us do find the new Golf's design to be a bit staid and evolutionary, the enhancements for the GTI indeed tug on our enthusiast heart strings.
