1996 Vw Cabrio Convertable, Manual, New Soft Top, Great Gas Mileage And Fun on 2040-cars
Martins Ferry, Ohio, United States
This is a southern car and the body is in really good shape, pictures show all bad points. I bought it for my daughter as a surprise well that was a mistake on my part...she was thrilled with it until she found out it was a standard. I thought this would be my way to get her to drive a stick...anyway...I have had it for a month now and I love driving it but I need to get her a different car. With that being said... study the pictures and ask any questions you wish because since I dont know much about cars in general I am selling this as is. I know it runs really well...the man I bought it from replaced the engine and it has 67,000 miles on it and it feels like that is true and the odometer reads 231,+++ (dont let the miles on the body full you it truly runs solid it drives very well and feels very safe)...the top and top frame are brand new and in excellent shape. The pictures of interior that are shown as missing are in the car but not on. They will come with the car. The doors are different color because the were replaced, The only negative things about the car that I have noticed are the heater is not effective ( I was told thermostat so i bought one but it isnt installed) The check engine light is on and has been since the motor was changed is what i was told...like I said it runs great and lastly when I back up I hear a rubbing noise (not sure why but it moves fine when in reverse) ... The good...runs great, goes straight and smooth even at highway speeds, no vibration and steering wheel is straight, tires are good, brakes are good, has nice leather interior, pioneer stereo with cd player... I am new to ebay and that is why I dont have rating but if you send me a message I will happily send you my phone number so you can confirm I am a real person and this is a real ad...I understand some bad things happen on here and I will do all I can to ensure you that I am real. Thank you for looking.

Skoda unveils Volkswagen Up!-based Citigo
Tue, 27 Sep 2011This is the all-new Skoda Citigo, and if you're thinking that it looks rather familiar, that's because its Volkswagen-badged kin recently debuted at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. That's right, the long-rumored Skoda version of Volkswagen's new Up! city car has finally arrived.
Buyers will have a choice of two 1.0-liter three-cylinder engines - one with 59 horsepower, the other with a 74 hp and a blistering 106 mph top speed - both mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Powerful they are not, but these three-bangers should prove to be extremely efficient, with Skoda quoting fuel economy numbers of 62.8 and 60.1 miles per gallon, respectively (on the European cycle).
Being a Skoda, the Citigo will go on sale in its home market of the Czech Republic this fall, with the rest of Europe getting the car next summer. Follow the jump for Skoda's official release.
2015 Volkswagen GTI [w/video]
Fri, 26 Apr 2013The 911 Of Hot Hatches Takes The Compact Game To New Levels
North American car buyers get a bit of a slap in the face when it comes to delivery schedules for new the Volkswagen Golf and pumped-up GTI models. We'll just repeat the old chestnut: It's worth the wait... even though it still stinks. This time around, Western Europe is taking deliveries of the new Golf as we speak, and GTI deliveries start between May and July. North America doesn't get the Mk7 Golf or GTI until about July of 2014.
So we approached our first drive of the new GTI with this chip on our shoulder: "You're making us wait? Well, then at least give us the exact car we'll be able to buy. No compromises, mein freund." And so it was that we extracted nearly all of our drive impressions from behind the wheel of what, for the United States, will technically be a model year 2015 two-door Volkswagen Golf GTI Performance with the standard six-speed manual.
Dyno run hints VW GTI power might be significantly underrated
Wed, Feb 4 2015Are you one of the lucky owners of the 2015 Volkswagen GTI? If yes, you should be happy, because your 210- or 220-horsepower hot hatchback might actually have more like 260 ponies under its hood. That's according to a dyno test from a vendor on, of all places, a Ford Focus ST enthusiast forum. The company is estimating a 15-percent drivetrain loss with the GTI's best result a whopping 263 horsepower and 314 pound-feet of torque at the crank. That's a tremendous difference from the 210 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque that Volkswagen claims. Of course, this is merely one dyno session on one car. We'll have to wait until more 2015 GTI owners get on the rolling road to see if Volkswagen really was as conservative about its hot hatch's output as FocusST.org claims.
