2004 Volkswagen Jetta - Manual Transmission - Good Deal! on 2040-cars
Lansing, Michigan, United States
|
I bought this car when I was in grad school out in Tucson, so it's got pretty heavy tint in the windows. It already had an aftermarket CD player installed with an auxiliary jack that's pretty nice for playing music through your phone. The sun/moon roof is also in good shape and is great for Michigan days where it's not quite hot out, but you just want a little fresh air and sunshine in your car!
As I mentioned, this car does have some issues. I got a new job and have had this car for a while, so I'm looking for something new. It also doesn't hurt that I don't like the VW dealership here and refuse to give them any more of my business. The timing belt and turbo have been replaced, as well as the water pump (they usually tell you to replace it at the same time as the timing belt). Lately the power steering has been a little bit growly. It smooths right out when you add some power steering fluid, but like I said, I'm not giving my dealership another dime to fix whatever leak there might be. If I was planning to keep the car for another year, I'd probably get it fixed. The ABS has been out for a while. The brakes still work fine, and I honestly haven't really noticed any difference. I've been using this car as my daily driver since I bought it, and it's been a lot of fun. That being said, it has a number of little scrapes and scuffs around the body. There's damage to the rear passenger wheel well. It's tough to find a stick shift these days, so this would be a great car if you want to learn! It shifts very easily, and the turbo offers some nice pick up when you really want to move. I don't know what else I'm supposed to say...happy bidding! Keep in mind that the car probably needs some repairs. Seems to run fine for me, though. There's a low reserve in case the auction doesn't meet what I was offered for a trade-in on a new vehicle. Good Luck! Bid Early! Bid Often! This vehicle is being relisted because the previous winning bidder had issues with the terms of the auction. Please review the item condition, description, and payment terms. If you have any questions or concerns, I would be more than happy to address them before the end of the auction. Finally, bid what you feel the car is worth - this is an auction, not a classified ad! |

New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise
Mon, 18 Feb 2013Convertibles make you do funny things. Ask someone if they'd drive a hardtop in near freezing temperatures with all the windows down and they might not even answer, thinking the question so ridiculous. Give that same person a convertible they love and you might just have to ask them to please put the top up even when snow is on the ground.
That guy has to take precautions to enjoy his proclivities, and as this new ad for the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible shows, not everyone understands. Have a watch below, and note that there's just one woman in the minute-long spot, and she's nowhere near the car. Seriously, why didn't VW run this commercial during the Super Bowl?
Audi, Fiat squabbling over numbers and letters
Mon, Jan 19 2015There have been rumors and speculation and prognostications about a Nissan Juke- and Mini Cooper-fighting Audi Q2 since 2012. There have been the same for a performance-oriented Q4 since 2011, perhaps previewed by the TT Offroad concept shown last year at the Beijing Motor Show. Turns out that those two alphanumeric combos are the only ones missing from the series Q1 to Q9 in Audi's trademark stable, and the Ingolstadt company wants to get them to make its badge sequence and crossover lineup complete. But Fiat owns them, and rumor is, CEO Sergio Marchionne appears to have no interest in selling them. Fiat has used the Q2 and Q4 like trim badges, identifying whether a company product has two-wheel or all-wheel drive. They did it with the Alfa Romeo 159 sedan, and they do it now on the Maserati Quattroporte S and Ghibli S Q4 sedans. Car magazine says Marchionne "may not be categorically opposed to selling the rights," but he absolutely won't do it to any fiefdom in the Volkswagen empire, which would leave Audi a jilted suitor. Why is Sergio being so serious? VW Group CEO Ferdinand Piech first starting waving torches on the bridge between the two companies when he said Alfa Romeo could sell four times as many cars if Volkswagen owned it, then burned the bridge when it continued to publicize its desire to buy Alfa Romeo. VW followed that up by throwing salt on the land around the destroyed bridge with its aggressive pricing in Europe during the worst of the car sales slump there, which Marchionne said was causing a "bloodbath." VW's final flourish was to set the river itself on fire, when a press officer said Marchionne wasn't qualified to head the European Automotive Manufacturers Association (ACEA) and VW would quit the organization if he did take the top spot. That is why, putting it optimistically, Audi looks to have a grim chance of getting the Q2 and Q4 marques from the Italian. So long as he is in power, at least: Marchionne said he's walking away from the job in 2018. Audi might have a better chance bending the knee to, and generously rewarding, his successor.

VW Jetta GLI, Peugeot 505 are MotorWeek's 1986 Euro sport sedan alternatives
Tue, Dec 23 2014Video 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
