Excellent TDI which I had planned to keep forever and cared for accordingly. Broke it in very gently, varying speed, short trips, no highway during break in. No door dings, perfect paint except for a few small chips due to highway use. I'll have them touched up before car is sold. Lots of washing (including underbody) during winter (only 2 winters in MN). Underneath car is perfect- no sign it has been through a MN winter- looks just like a southern, unsalted car. Never been in a carwash with brushes-- touchless or hand wash only. Always garage kept, hand waxed 2x/yr.

No accidents of any kind, no body work/ paint ever. Only adult driven, by me.

It is an amazing car, getting  >40 mpg on the highway even with rack.

Serviced by a trustworthy local VW dealer and has had all service on time. I personally verified correct oil for changes by talking with service technician and verifying full/mt bottles of Castrol LL03. Just had 40k mi service.

New OEM battery because I replace them every 4 years- nothing wrong with old one

New wiper blades.

I have all fuel receipts. It has averaged 38 mpg for all fuel consumed.

Curt trailer hitch and trailer light plug. I have only towed a tiny boat a very few times, but it tows this small boat beautifully. Towing capacity is 1000lbs and my little boat/motor/trailer is less than that.

Comes with Thule rack and fairing, a bike tray and a top case. With fairing, rack is very quiet, though does cost 1-2mpg. Sunroof is still usable.

Rubber VW floor mats for winter and carpet VW mats for summer.

4 winter steel wheels (VW takeoffs) with Blizzak WS70 205/55/16 tires and TPMS sensors and wheel covers. Winter tires probably have 8k mi on them, which means  tires/wheels that came with car have about 32k mi. Based on how they have worn so far, I guess they have 20k mi more in them.

But wait, There's more!

New Frostheater which I didn't get installed last winter.

Unopened CarGo things that came with mats. No idea what they do.

I don't think you'll find a better TDI than this one, unless you buy a new one, which is probably really what you should do. The supply of used TDI's is always less than demand and so the used ones have very high resale value which is why I bought a new one 4 years ago. You could buy this car new for probably $26k +tax+ accessories ~$2k, if you can find a 2014. I looked really hard for a 2dr manual trans with sunroof. 2015's are due in July and will have urea injection. Yuck.

I am not in any way desperate to sell this car, so it won't be a bargain.

Winning the auction isn't getting first right of refusal; it is a contractual obligation to purchase the car for the agreed upon price within 7 days. If you want to come and test drive it, please do that before auction is over. If you win the auction, show up with cash or cashiers check for full purchase price or I'm not even opening the garage door.

I have MN title with no liens, so purchase will be a snap, but we'll have to go to my local bank for the transaction even if you bring cash because apparently people now make fake cash that is very hard to tell from real. So that means weekday sale, probably (My bank is open Sat morning though).

It is for sale other places on web and locally, so I reserve right to end auction early.

VW Jetta GLI, Peugeot 505 are MotorWeek's 1986 Euro sport sedan alternatives

Tue, Dec 23 2014

Video reviews have become a mainstay of automotive journalism, but long before every publication turned on its video cameras and started uploading to YouTube, there was one program that was blazing the trail. That, of course, was MotorWeek, the television car program produced by Maryland Public Television and hosted by the inimitable John Davis. The program first aired back in 1981, and after more than three decades in the business, it's got a considerable archive of old episodes to unearth. In this latest gem recovered from the MotorWeek back catalog, the program pitted two European sports sedans against each other: a Volkswagen Jetta GLI and a Peugeot 505 Turbo. That's right: back in the 1980s, Peugeot was still competing in the US marketplace. The forced-induction 505 may not have been enough to keep the French automaker in American showrooms, but it was enough to stand up against the VW. Which one won MotorWeek's favor? You'll just have to watch the six-minute clip to find out. News Source: MotorWeek via YouTube Volkswagen Peugeot Economy Cars Performance Videos Sedan vw jetta gli

VW Golf Sportsvan succeeds Golf Plus in Frankfurt

Sun, 08 Sep 2013


Just ahead of this week's Frankfurt Motor Show, Volkswagen has announced the world premiere of its Golf Sportsvan, a near-production concept that succeeds its Golf Plus. VW describes this compact family car as "one of the most versatile vehicles of the compact class," noting that it offers a mix of hatchback and minivan features in a sporty package.
That sportiness comes from the Sportsvan's styling (perhaps more sleek wagon than minivan) and performance features it shares with the Golf GTI - including the XDS+ electronic differential lock, which is integrated into the Electronic Stability Control system to improve agility. At the same time, the Sportsvan's six engine options, which include a turbodiesel, are up to 19-percent more fuel-efficient than their predecessors.

Audi spending an additional $2.5 billion on expansion through 2019

Thu, Jan 1 2015

Every year, it seems the Volkswagen Group announces a new and larger spend to push growth and profit, with Audi a regular recipient of the moolah. That's reasonable, seeing as hauls in 40 percent of Group operating profits. In December last year Audi said it would spend an additional 100 million euros ($122M US) per year through 2018 to develop new models and expand production, targeting 60 models by 2020 and luxury sales leadership. This month Audi said it will boost that by another two billion euros ($2.5B US) over the next five years, for a total outlay of 24 billion euros from 2014 to 2019. Something like 70 percent of those billions will be spent on new models, technology like "connectivity and lightweight construction," and factory expansion at its plants in Ingolstadt and Neckarsulm. Most of the ten models that will plump the lineup to 60 cars will mainly be aimed at the C and D segments, as well as crossovers, the brand's burgeoning portfolio of PHEV models, and all-electric cars that will begin staking ground in the segment. The big spend comes at the same time as Audi is working hard to reduce costs by $2.5 billion to maintain profitability, part of a larger push by VW to cut costs by $6.1 billion by 2017. More than a billion euros will go to new factories in Mexico and Brazil. Work begins on the Mexico plant next year, and when it comes on-line in 2016, Audi's Q5 successor will roll out of its warehouse doors; Audi has already announced it will hire 850 more workers next year in Mexico. When that's done, Mexico's production of German luxury cars will only trail that of Germany, China and the US. The company's Brazil plant will produce the A3 and S3 starting next year, and the brand figures luxury car buying there will triple by 2017.
