Hampton, Virginia, United States

Hampton, Virginia, United States

For almost 3 years this has been my personal GTI. I purchased the GTI with only 19xxx miles, like all my cars from an insurance auction. At the time the car replaced my 2006 GTI which one of my best friends wanted. However, like all my personal cars (Porsche Carrera, Lotus Elise) they don't get driven much and mostly sit in the garage. When I first bought the GTI and fixed it I drove her nearly everyday. When I purchased my 2011 Golf TDI the GTI was parked and only driven when the VA State inspection was due. One year later I sold my Golf TDI and purchased a 2012 Passat TDI. Most of these cars I sell after a year so and move up to a newer model. Not so with my GTI here. I kept it because it is fully loaded.....I mean fully loaded!!! The GTI has Navigation,
Plays DVD movies.
Leather interior,
Heated seats,
Moon roof,
Xenon headlights,
Multi function steering wheel, 2013 upgrade with module and programming. Works flawless!!!

The damage to the GTI when I bought it was to the right rear. I included a photo!! I replaced the rear subframe and all the suspension arms in the right rear. I also replaced the rear section of the rocker panel and 2 of the rims on the right side. The tires are brand new and have less than 1000 miles on them. My GTI is also lowered with the German Eibach springs all around. An alignment was done of course and the GTI drives candle straight. There was no damage at all the front of left side of the car. ( There is a photo included showing the GTI the way I bought it. The steering wheel was brand new with airbag, purchased for a 2013 GTI. I also replaced the steering module which needed to be done to make the 2013 Steering wheel function buttons work on an 2009. The module was professionally programmed and married to the car. All the buttons work except the phone button since the 2009 doesn't have the phone feature build in. The battery is also less than a month old!! Everything is full working condition. Ice cold AC, heat works as it should and so is everything else. The tinted windows were done by the previous owner and were already like that when I bought the GTI. The GTI has a 6-speed manual transmission and at 24xxx miles is not even broke in yet. Despite me owning my own shop, I take all my new Volkswagens to the dealer for service. That is because the car was still under warranty when I bought it and Volkswagen was during the all the services and recalls. I have the receipt for the last service done in Virginia Beach at Checkered Flag Volkswagen. It comes with the original books and manuals. Also has the Original Volkswagen GTI monster mats and the Gorilla trunk mat upgrade from Volkswagen. The reason I'm finally selling the GTI is because I purchased a 2013 GTI with only 6xxx miles that is also fully loaded. Yes, I buy all my personal vehicles from insurance auctions. The reason for that is, When you buy a used car at any used car dealership or private customer you should ask yourself why are they selling a car that young if they have no problems with it!! When I buy a damaged car from an insurance auction I know it's there because the insurance company paid the previous owner off rather than fixing the car. Had they not been in an accident with it they'd probably still have the car today!!!
The GTI is completely restored to normal, there are NO WARNING LIGHTS ON!!! As with all our restored late-model cars, when the repairs were completed the GTI was inspected by an authorized inspector of the DMV. No aftermarket parts were used!!! The GTI runs and drives perfectly and there are no flaws. There are no parts missing, I replace every screw and every clip, no matter how small -- to fully restore the GTI to previous condition!! I had no means of selling any time soon when I first purchased the GTI. We do accept certain trades ins but only Mercedes Benz, Mini Cooper, or Volkswagen 2011 and newer. We will supply temporary plates should you decide to fly in and drive the GTI home.

    I'm open for all reasonable offers in case you don't like to wait for the auction to end!!

This GTI has been completely restored and has passed a Virginia Salvage Inspection.



 


THIS JETTA HAS NOW A CLEAR TITLE THAT REQUIRES NO ADDITIONAL STEPS AT THE DMV.

                                                 Check my other auctions because we have many other cars for sale!!

If I get a reasonable offer before the auction ends I will cancel all bids and sell the car. It is also for sale on our lot. If this is something you're interested in, don't wait for the auction because many of my listed cars sell before the actual auction ends!!!

Matthias Muller officially named VW Group CEO

Fri, Sep 25 2015

While the vast number of rumors made it seem like a foregone conclusion, Porsche boss Matthias Muller has officially been named Volkswagen Group CEO to replace the recently resigned Martin Winterkorn. His contract runs through the end of February 2020, and until a replacement is found, Muller also gets to hang onto his old job as chairman of Porsche. At the same time, the VW Group Supervisory Board is announcing a massive structural reorganization across the entire company, with the new management model in place by the beginning of 2016. Contrary to previous rumors, Michael Horn remains as President and CEO of VW Group of America. The board wants a greater emphasis on brands and regions going forward, and the scale of this shift can be seen in the US. On November 1, VW Group business in the US, Mexico, and Canada is being combined under the leadership of current Skoda chairman Winfried Vahland. However contrary to previous rumors, Michael Horn remains as President and CEO of VW Group of America. Other brands are also seeing some significant changes mechanically. Porsche, Bentley, and Bugatti now fall under the Group's "sportscar and mid-engine toolkit." This means that the brands will start sharing standardized technical parts. A Chief Technical Officer across all of the company's brands will also start working toward future innovations. The new brand-centric view means the end of a group-wide production department. "Going forward, the brands and regions will also have greater independence with regard to production. So it follows that they should also hold the responsibility for these activities," Berthold Huber, interim Chairman of the Supervisory Board, said in the announcement. In a statement with the press release about his promotion, Muller promised to turn the company around after such an international crisis. He said: "My most urgent task is to win back trust for the Volkswagen Group – by leaving no stone unturned and with maximum transparency, as well as drawing the right conclusions from the current situation. Under my leadership, Volkswagen will do everything it can to develop and implement the most stringent compliance and governance standards in our industry." Matthias Muller appointed CEO of the Volkswagen Group Muller remains Chairman of Porsche AG until a successor has been found Matthias Muller (62) has been appointed CEO of Volkswagen AG with immediate effect.

VW, Fiat, Mercedes could be CNG winners in Europe

Fri, Dec 12 2014

Fiat ads in the US try to play up the exotic, sexy side of Italian culture. On the home front in Italy, however, passenger-vehicle sales are marked by something less edgy and quite a bit more practical: the growth of compressed-natural-gas (CNG) powered car sales. In fact, Italy is leading a group of European countries where CNG sales are on the upswing and may be benefiting automakers like VW, Fiat and Mercedes-Benz, according to Automotive News. VW started sales of its Golf TGI natural-gas vehicle this year – the company's fourth in Europe – while Mercedes-Benz added a natural-gas B-class model. Fiat accounts for about 50 percent of CNG vehicles sold on the continent. In all, Europe's CNG sales through September totaled about 67,000, up seven percent from a year earlier, Automotive News Europe says, citing research firm JATO Dynamics. And the number of CNG vehicles on Europe's roads could jump tenfold within the next decade. The draw is a combination of lower refueling prices and a CNG drivetrain that typically emits less CO2 than diesel vehicles. As for Italy, about five percent of new-vehicle sales are CNG. To put that into perspective, hybrids, battery-electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids and diesels combined to account for about 4.2 percent of US vehicle sales last year.

Volkswagen Golf R Evo may debut at Beijing Motor Show

Thu, 23 Jan 2014

If a report in Auto Express is correct, a lighter, faster brother to the Volkswagen Golf R will be shown to the world at the Beijing Motor Show in April. Said to be called the Golf R Evo, the even harder hot hatch would be unveiled as one of those concepts that's practically a de facto presentation of the genuine thing. The Evo in its name will come from having a carbon fiber roof and CF in the bodywork, lighter wheels, thinner bucket seats up front and a roll cage instead of rear seats.
If there's a power increase, it's been described as "a small bump." However, as the report mentions, if the Jenny Craig regimen can drop 100 kilograms (220 pounds) from the the 3,247-pound weight of the European Golf R, then the Golf R Evo will do about the same damage on the scales as the Golf but have at least 50 more horsepower and 44 more pound-feet of torque.
Since we still don't have the current Golf, this isn't something that should keep you awake even if the 'concept' does become a production model. But it is good to know that the Golf R is really going to start pushing its boundaries.
