I am selling my 1982 VW Jetta that has a 1986 1.6L NA diesel motor and 5 speed manual transmission. I bought this car a few years back and never got it fully running. When I bought it the head was off because of a blown head gasket. Long story short, I ended up replacing it with a new remanufactured OEM German made head and head gasket. Now, it appears that it needs a new injection pump. It will run, but the engine races and should not be driven. I bought the car for a few reasons. First, these cars are known for getting excellent mileage, my 1990 Jetta, which has the same motor, gets around 40 mpg and some get even higher. The 1982 body style is lighter and a bit smaller than the 1990, so it stands to reason this car should do well. Second, the car has many new/like new parts. The alternator, water pump, injectors, glow plugs, glow plug relays, radiator, various coolant hoses, front and rear brakes and tires have all been replaced in the past few years. When the head was put on it also got a new timing belt and timing belt tensioner. The motor was rebuilt around 2009 and has around 30,000 miles on it. The clutch was replaced at time of rebuilt. The clutch and trans feel good, better than my 1990. Third, the body, while not perfect is in decent shape for its age. The car has no major dents or dings, and is nice and true, however, there is some surface rust, but no major rust issues under the body. The sunroof opens and closes nicely and seals well. The drivers side window has fallen into the door panel but is not broken, the glass clips are known for going bad. The other windows are fine, and seal well. The seats are in good shape except for the drivers, which is torn up. The car is not the best looking thing out there, but with a little bit of work, it could be a pretty good car. I have tried to describe it as best as I can, but please ask any questions that you may have. The car is sold as-is, buyer is responsible for shipping. At buyers request, I could deliver the car up to 250 miles for $1.00 per loaded mile. Thanks for looking!

Recharge Wrap-up: AutoNation CEO calls anti-Tesla laws unnecessary, Common Pence donates subway money
Thu, Nov 13 2014Volkswagen has presented a list of near-term technologies to improve fuel economy and decrease emissions. The list includes an addition to a coasting function in its stop-start system, a 10-speed DSG transmission and a more power-dense four-cylinder TDI engine. Volkswagen aims to be the world's most sustainable automaker by 2018 through electric mobility, improved design and increased environmental performance from internal combustion vehicles. Volkswagen also announced other technologies for increased interactivity and connectivity in its vehicles. Read more at Green Car Congress. Commence Pence is a system that allows subway riders in London to donate their unused transit money to charity. People visiting the city often load up enough on their subway card (called Oyster Card) to get them through their trip and end up with unused funds leftover. Zander Whitehurst, a British designer, has created a device that can use the card's RFID to accept leftover funds, which then get diverted to charity rather than reverting back to the agency in charge of running the subway fare system. See the video below or read more at Wired. Mike Jackson, CEO of AutoNation has called Michigan's efforts to ban Tesla's direct sales in the state "unnecessary protectionism." The statement comes as a bit of a surprise, as it dissents from the majority of auto dealers who support a franchise model, as well as laws that forbid automakers selling directly to the consumer. "If Elon Musk wants to make a mistake and go with an inefficient distribution system, that's his right as an American," says Jackson, showing he feels he has little to fear from the electric automaker. Jackson has more to say on the matter, which you can read over at Green Car Reports. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

This Or That: 1987 VW Vanagon Syncro vs. 1987 Land Rover Defender [w/poll]
Thu, 13 Nov 2014As I scoured auction sites and classified ads for the perfect vehicle to take into battle with Autoblog Associate Editor Brandon Turkus, I knew I needed to find something unique. You see, I'm currently 0-2 at winning a round of This or That, in which two of our editors agree on a category, choose a side, and argue it out over a (mostly) friendly chain of emails.
The first time we did this, my chosen Fiat 500 Abarth took about a third of the popular vote in our reader poll. The second time, my lovely 1980 Oldsmobile 442 did just a little bit better against a 1989 BMW 635 CSi. Despite holding the opinion that my automotive choices, though perhaps a little bit more... obscure than my fellow editors, are still better, an outright win would go a long way toward boosting my vehicular self worth a few notches upward.
With all of that out of the way, even if three isn't my lucky number after all, I go into battle against Brandon knowing full well that I've made the perfect choice: A 1987 Volkswagen Vanagon Syncro. My rough-and-tumble van/'ute has a formidable opponent in the form of a 1987 Land Rover Defender, which, truth be told, is exactly what I was expecting from Turkus, a self-proclaimed Rover aficionado.
