2011 Volkswagen VW Jetta TDI Wagon– Glass Roof - Extended Warranty

Up for auction is my 76 year old mom’s VW Jetta Turbo Diesel Wagon (Black on Black) with the Panorama Glass Roof.   The story of this car really is the proverbial old lady driving it very carefully and slowly.  She and my dad bought it new, and since my dad passed, she is consolidating vehicles down to a single SUV since she needs a car that is great in the snow.   This car is garage kept and has approximately 27,300 miles. 

In addition to the cleanliness of the car, my mom and dad also took the car to the dealer for every milestone service.   So the car has all documents regarding service and maintenance.   In addition to the factory 3 year warranty, they purchased an additional 3-year warranty which is the Fidelity Platinum package – Yes this is in fact the authorized VW factory warranty.  There are other warranty providers out there but Fidelity is the VW primary factory authorized warranty provider.  The car and the extended warranty were purchased October 22, 2010 and it has the 6 Year 72,000 mile extended warranty which covers through 10/22/2016 or 72,000 miles.  The cost of this warranty was $1,732.  It has 2.5 years left.   The value of this warranty with 2.5 years left is $1,443.  And if you were to buy a similar VW privately without the warranty, you could not add the Fidelity warranty.

 

The pro rated value of the warranty is being added to the Average Kelly Blue Book value and the NADA value to arrive at a Buy It Now Price.

 

According to NADA, the value of this car is as follows:

Clean Trade-in $20,025 and Clean Retail is $22,875 – Average is $21,450

According to KBB the value of this car is as follows:

Excellent condition Trade In is $19,317 and Excellent condition private party sale is $21,017 – Average is $20,167

The Buy It Now Price is the average of the 2 averages above ($20,808), plus $1,443 for the prorated extended warranty. So, the price to take it today is $22,251.  I’ve set the reserve a little under that, but this is a fair deal by all standards, and it’s a very lightly used and well maintained TDI.

 

There are a couple of scratches on the wheels but nothing major, there are also some light scratches on the rear bumper which have been photographed up close.  They would likely buff out but I can’t promise that.  The car is black on black and there are no flaws on the interior anywhere.  There are also no dings anywhere.  It has blue tooth and heated front seats that work great.  We went overboard with photos to make it as absolutely clear as possible.   She is fine from top to bottom and front to back.

If VW defaults on loans it may sell Bentley or Lamborghini

Mon, Dec 7 2015

If something goes catastrophically wrong with Volkswagen Group's recent $21 billion loan, brands like Bentley or Lamborghini could hit the auction block. According to two insiders to Reuters, the beleaguered German automaker agrees with its creditors to sell assets if the company somehow can't pay back the debt in a year. One of these anonymous people claimed the company hasn't yet deliberated over what to sell. However, the sources were willing to speculate that the power engineering portion of Man could be among the first to go. "Volkswagen may also consider divesting luxury car brands Bentley and Lamborghini or motor bike brand Ducati, although these units don't really move the needle," an insider said to Reuters. VW Group negotiated with the banks earlier this week to get the massive loan. The cash is necessary as a buffer in case the automaker doesn't have enough money on hand to repair vehicles or settle upcoming fines. VW would reportedly issue bonds in the spring to begin paying the debt. The company's bills will start racking up quickly in the new year. German authorities mandate a recall there in early 2016, and repair campaigns in the US for the 2.0- and 3.0-liter diesel engines are inevitable. There are also hundreds of class-action lawsuits to settle. The company needs to resolve its CO2 emissions scandal in Europe, too. In response to these financial threats, VW management created a cost-cutting plan to slash the research and development budget by $1.1 billion next year.

VW LogBox and Race App performance data logger for R models [w/video]

Tue, Dec 30 2014

Now that it's got a 300-horsepower Golf R to brag about, Volkswagen wants you to be able to brag about it accurately with the LogBox and Race App performance data logging combo. Plug the LogBox into your VW's OBD II port and it sends data over BlueTooth to the Race App, measuring variables like acceleration, distance, G-force and engine performance. If you're on a circuit, it uses Google Maps to make a map of the track, and you can record live video in-app to match with the data. Volkswagen says the LogBox will be available for R models and "a range of further Volkswagen cars," so you'll want to hit up your dealer with questions before ordering. It's available from the VW accessories store for 299 euros ($365 US), but right now the free app is only available in German, in the German-language iTunes and Google Play store. We imagine that will be corrected shortly; in the meantime, the video can show you how it works.

The Volkswagen Group switches official language to English

Wed, Dec 14 2016

The Volkswagen Group can't be fairly thought of as entirely German anymore, so the news that the company is switching its official language to English to help attract managers and executives is a rational, if surprising, decision. While many VW Group companies are still staidly German in character and culture, consider the other companies that it controls: Bentley (British), Bugatti (French), Ducati and Lamborghini (Italian), Skoda (Czech), Scania trucks (Swedish), and SEAT (Spanish). Not to mention the large Volkswagen Group of America operation, which constructs cars in Chattanooga, TN. Volkswagen's explicit motivation is to improve management recruitment – making sure the company isn't losing out on candidates for important positions because they can't speak German – and that's inherently sensible in a globalized economy. Particularly considering, like it or lump it, that English is the lingua franca of said global economy. It also should make it inherently easier to communicate between its world-wide subsidiaries and coordinate operations. It's hard to say for sure if this will have any impact on the consumer, although it's easy to see the benefits if, say, VW Group hires some American product planners or engineers and they push for features and designs that more closely suit American needs. After all, the US is a hugely important market for any manufacturer, and so the switch to English almost certainly has something to do with the outsized influence of the US in the global economy. And there doesn't seem to be a downside from a purely rational perspective, although it could mean that the Group's corporate culture becomes less German. Whether that's a good or a bad thing depends on your perspective.
