Completely clean AutoCheck report!

Car is in good condition, runs but has some issues:

The cons:
Rear brakes are sticking due to some rust and will need to be replaced. CEL codes are coming up as well due to O2 sensors needing to be replaced. I will include one of the two that it appears to need. O2 sensor codes are not always about the O2 sensor but I got it anyway, just didn't get around to replacing it. Car does not start up on first crank, it takes a second crank to get it going, this happens only on a cold start. It works fine if stopping the engine and then turning it back on within a few minutes.

Windsor blue with tan/black leather interior, needs a bit of work but have a lot of extra stuff to go with it to make this a very excellent deal.

The pros:

All doors, handles and windows work without any issues. Has a nice aftermarket CD/AM/FM unit.

Completely redone headliner (looks brand new, took me some time to do it but it was well worth it).

Shocks were replaced with Bilstein TC units about 20,000 mi ago. Water pump, and all cooling plastic components (thermostat housing, water distribution pipe, etc.) were replaced about 10,000 mi ago. Pulley for accessory belt was replaced with an all-aluminum version. Front suspension components (ball-joints, bushings, tie rod ends) were replaced about 40,000 mi ago.

Car was kept in excellent condition with oil changes every 3-4 thousand miles.

Almost all highway miles since I've owned it.

Interior is well-maintained and clean. Some minor blemishes around the inside, some torn leather on the driver's seat and a smaller tear on the passenger's seat also.

Will include a variety of extra parts. Rear brake caliper, rear brake pads, rear rotor, O2 sensor, and other extra parts as well.

Also including the original 5-speed transmission that came with the car. It was replaced due to issues with the reverse gear. Car is working fine with replacement transmission.

4x Michelin Ice-X snow tires used for one season are on the car now. I will also include 8x of the bottle-cap (stock) rims (2 sets).

Exterior is in decent shape. Does have a crease on driver's side door and some expected wear and tear.

Location is in Rhinebeck, NY (near the Kingston/Poughkeepsie area, 100 miles (approximately 2 hours) straight north of NYC).

Car runs but brakes are dragging a bit, best to come pick up with dolly or have it repaired somewhere locally.

Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I will reply within a few hours, if not instantly.

VW readying two-row CUV concept for Detroit

Wed, Dec 10 2014

We're likely getting yet another glimpse of Volkswagen's future crossover at the upcoming 2015 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, in January. According to Automotive News, two anonymous sources within the automaker indicate a CUV concept will be shown there. The concept is said to be a five-passenger preview of the brand's future seven-seat model. Previous versions of the crossover have carried the name CrossBlue (pictured above), but there was no indication whether or not that would continue. The original three-row concept debuted at the 2013 auto show in Detroit, and VW followed it up with the CrossBlue Coupe Concept in Shanghai later that year. In early 2014, the company announced the CUV would go into production sometime in 2016, along with plans to invest $7 billion in North America over the next five years. During the summer, the automaker made things even more official when it declared plans to invest $900 million to build a 538,000-square-foot expansion into its Chattanooga, TN, factory to assemble the new model. Production of the crossover was slated to begin by the end of 2016, at the time. According to Automotive News, even more changes in VW's CUV lineup are on the way. The Tiguan is reportedly getting an update next year that could be joined by coupe and long-wheelbase variants, as well.

Volkswagen E-Co-Motion Concept brings electric mobility to the commercial set

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

Volkswagen sees a future where the bulk of the world's freight is moved into city centers by train, then offloaded onto a fleet of smaller, light-duty commercial vehicles for final delivery. Those vehicles could wind up looking something like the company's E-Co-Motion Concept that debuted at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. The EV features a modular underfloor drive unit comprised of a battery, motor and gearbox that can be paired with any number of cab and body configurations to suit a buyer's needs, from a refrigerated box to a standard flat bed.
The E-Co-Motion Concept features a rear-mounted electric motor with 113 horsepower and 199 pound-feet of torque. A standard 20 kWh battery pack provides a driving range of up to 62 miles, while 30 kWh and 40 kWh packs could deliver 93 and 124 miles of travel, respectively. Check out the press release below for more information.
