1995 Vw Cabrio Tdi Mk3.5 Interior Mk4 Seats Tuned Dropped New Engine And Top Ahu on 2040-cars
Estacada, Oregon, United States
Selling my Cab after much thought. I built this car for me to drive to the Carolina's where I work and it's been there 3 times since I built it. Engine was built Jan. 2012 with new 0.5mm oversize pistons, block decked for ALH pistons, torque-plate honed, new everything. 25k miles since build. Malone stage 3 EGR delete tune with Bosio Sprint nozzles. Boost is 15psi and can definitely handle more. Runs very strong. CTN transmission out of 1998? TDI. Clutch, mounts, seals, everything was new at engine build. I even installed new alternator brushes. Drive anywhere right now. While the engine was at the shop I installed the new vinyl top. No leaks. False floor in trunk for subs and a nice molded 12" sub box in the corner of the trunk. Paint is Plastidip orange koi and is easily removed. MK3.5 dash/panels. MK4 Beetle seats. Autometer EGT and Boost. Newish 195/50/15 tires. Disc MK3.5 rear axle. New CV axles and bearings all around. New lower control arms. Sway bar cut off because this car was on airbags once. Sitting on rough-riding Raceland coilovers and if that bothers you I can put on stock struts. Paint is rough underneath plastidip and is a green color. Floor pans have some soft spots from previous owner leaving the top down in the rain. I pulled padding out and just left it alone because it isn't that bad and didn't bother me. Carpet is newer Jetta carpet. AC works WAY good. 2" stainless straight exhaust with one muffler in the back. Hitch for pulling tractors. Dual chamber Hella headlights super bright. OBDII works great. All window and top seals were replaced in the past 2 years from cars I found in junkyards across the country. True 50mpg car here, no joking around with that. I recently built the 1Z pump that's on it. No leaks anywhere. Battery is a large AGM and I installed all + connections on a Glastic standoff located behind the battery. Has a CD player with bluetooth and decent door speakers. I believe I left a #4 welding cable installed so you can install a large amp in the trunk. This is the glass rear window German built Cabrio. I build and love TDI's and this car was no exception. I am willing to deliver anywhere in the country if you pay fuel and a plane ride home. This car has been everywhere and can go many many more miles. No airbag in passenger dash due to an amp being installed there once. See pics below. Any questions you can call me at 503-984-7080 and/or email directly at andrew at weldingcreations.com

UAW tactics called into question at VW's TN plant
Thu, 26 Sep 2013The United Auto Workers is in hot water with some of the very workers it is trying to unionize at Volkswagen's Chattanooga assembly plant. According to The Tennessean, eight Volkswagen factory workers have filed complaints against the UAW with the National Labor Relations Board, claiming the union "misled or coerced" them into formally asking for union representation.
The UAW has instituted a major push at the Chattanooga plant to represent the 2,500 hourly laborers that build the VW Passat by using what's called a card-check process. The tactic is opposed by the National Right to Work Legal Defense foundation, the group representing the workers. The card-check process demands that a company recognize a union that obtains the signatures of more than half its workforce, according to The Tennessean. This tactic is in contrast to the more traditional route, which sees employees vote on union representation.
The workers filing the complaint claim that the UAW told them the cards merely called for a secret ballot, rather than an outright demand for union representation. Workers also allege that the UAW has made it overly difficult to reclaim their signed cards, some of which were signed so long ago that they have been rendered invalid. Although the cards can force a company's hand, federal law still allows the company to ask for a secret ballot before yielding to unionized workers.
Carlex Criollo is a Volkswagen Multivan shrine to Alcantara, leather and... fish
Wed, 10 Jul 2013A keen angler recently went to Polish tuner Carlex Design (the same folks who did that steampunk Mini Countryman a while back) for a revamp of his Volkswagen Multivan. What resulted is perhaps the most striking - yet fishing-unfriendly - interior we've ever seen in a van. Below the shoulder line, if a surface isn't covered in cross-stitched Alcantara, then it's covered in cross-stitched leather. Even the steering wheel airbag boss. And the seat supports. And the cupholders.
The brown hue of the Multivan's interior is called Criollo, named for an especially fine specimen of cocoa. The finishing touch on the overhaul is a fileting knife that Carlex made for the owner. We imagine he'll use the knife for the marine life, but keep his van far away from it.
Audi investing $30.3 billion through 2018 for product expansion
Sun, 29 Dec 2013How does Audi plan to reach two million units in annual sales and pay for the 11 new models it's adding to its lineup - an expansion that may include models named SQ2, Q9 and F-Tron? By increasing its investment to 22 billion euros ($30.3 billion US) between now and 2018. That figure represents an increase of about 500 million euros over the previously planned outlay, according to a report by Automotive News, and that could be due to Audi wishing to goad the momentum that pushed it to 1.5 million annual sales two years ahead of schedule.
It's also about staving off the challenges from BMW and Mercedes-Benz. Now that BMW has been able to turn some of its attention away from its "i" series of Megacity cars, it will reportedly spend more than planned in 2014 as it continues the rollout of ten all-new vehicles and 15 new-generation vehicles through the end of next year. Mercedes, having been dropped to third in the sales race, is preparing to add 13 new cars over the next six years.
Audi's money is going into technology, into product like the next-generation TT and the Q1 and production expansions and upgrades all over the world. The expenditure represents just under a fourth of Volkswagen's 84.2 billion-euro ($115.7 US) outlay devoted to taking the number-one global automaker title away from General Motors and Toyota by 2018.
