Relisted- last deal the guy had no money!

Regretfully selling my MK2 8V Jetta. I am the second registered owner and the Car has not been registered since 2009. It's been sitting and it's time to move on to a good home. Runs well, lots of new parts over the last few years. A/C blows ice cold, it was converted to R134A. In 2009 both fuel pumps and fuel filter were replaced along with complete exhaust system. In spring of 2011 a new heater core was installed as well as new blower motor resistor. In 2012 brembo front rotors and new frt brake pads were installed. July 2011 it got a repaint. It's been driven less than 280 miles since all work was done. Car is not a perfect it's 22 years old. Currently only needs a battery, a new speedo cable and some minor TLC if you want, and perhaps replace the windshield as it has a rock chip/crack. The body on this car is mint, cleanest ones around and it runs well, interior is clean and in great shape. A flaw with interior is that the dash has started to crack. You can make this a daily driver, but you don't find many like this anymore, at least not this clean, so I would love to see a true enthusiast take this car home. This was the last year of the MK2 body and really is the Perfect car for an MK 2 enthusiast. Maybe convert to a 16v or a nice VR6 sleeper.

Disclaimer, there is no warranty expressed or implied. Vehicle is being sold as-is where is. Vehicle is 22 years old, expect normal wear and tear, minor dings and scratches, and it is up to you to decided its road worthiness. I have taken this on a 300 mile round trip to NY and NJ with no issues prior to 2012.

Payment: a deposit of $500.00 is expect at close of auction, this is non refundable, so if you can't afford this car, don't bid! Final payment expected in cash at pickup, no more than 10 days after the end of the auction. A postal money order will also be accepted, and vehicle will be allowed for pickup only after the money order is cashed.

Shipping or pickup: winning bidder is responsible for all shipping arrangements and fees. I will assist with any scheduling and make certain I am available for pickup.

Update: car is listed for sale locally and I reserve the right to cancel auction early. Car is in above average condition. NADA lists this car at $3,575 average, $5,150 for high retail. I feel this car is right in the middle but willing to let it go for less than that.

Volkswagen lays off 500 Chattanooga workers

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

The redesigned Volkswagen Passat has been a decent seller since its debut in 2011, but sales have apparently dropped off enough that the automaker is trimming some of the employees from its Chattanooga, TN assembly plant. According to Automotive News, Volkswagen will be cutting shifts and laying off 500 contracted workers in response to slowing sales.
Currently, the plant has three teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Saturday, but starting May 13, this will be reduced down to two teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Thursday. This will be done to reduce dealer inventory (the article says that VW dealers, on average, have a 97-day supply of Passats) and production capacity (currently running at an annual pace of 170,000 units, which is more than the 150,000 annual units the plant was planned to produce).
This, of course, isn't saying that the Passat has been a failure since VW added 200 full-time employees to the plant in February 2012 to keep up with increased demand. The AN article says that automakers frequently overstaff plants during the launch of a new product - or in this case, a new product and a new plant - but eventually reduce the workers as things run smoother and more efficiently.

German carmakers recall 630,000 diesel vehicles in Europe

Fri, Apr 22 2016

Mercedes, Opel, Porsche, and Volkswagen will recall over 630,000 cars in Europe, according to reports Friday. No diesel car has been able to get under the legal emissions limit in real-world driving, according to a German government investigation. While only Volkswagen Group has been using a specific "defeat device", other carmakers have been playing with their exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) systems. Depending of the manufacturer, the systems have been cut off at a certain temperature. In a specific test cycle the systems operate to fulfill the legal requirements, but in everyday use the limits are exceeded. According to the magazine Der Spiegel, the supplier Bosch is behind this programming and has provided it to all German automakers. The mentioned carmakers have announced recalls, but many other manufacturers are also mentioned by name in the report, including Alfa Romeo, Chevrolet, Dacia, Fiat, Ford, Hyundai, Jaguar, Jeep, Land Rover, Nissan, Renault, and Suzuki. PSA Group, which produces Peugeot, Citroen, and DS cars, declared yesterday that its offices were raided following an emissions investigation.
