PLEASE READ ALL! This is a 2005 Volkswagen Passat TDI Wagon. Loaded with wood trim, leather, heated seats, sunroof. The car has new tires, and a new battery. There is a problem with the transmission. I do not know if it can be fixed, or will require replacement all together. It will drive in forward and reverse (I drove it home about 10 miles) and from what I am told it goes into "limp mode" after about a minute or so. Basically it shifts hard. Please dont ask me 1000 questions about this, this is all I know! Assume that it needs a new transmission. I purchased this car under the promise that a friend would repair it for me. He has proved unreliable, and I am tired of waiting. I purchased a new timing belt/ water pump/ idler kit for it as I was going to have my friend do this as well to be safe. This will be included with the car. It starts and runs well, and has 155k. I tried to show in the pics, there are a few dings, and the seats show a little wear. A very nice looking car, but with regular "family use" wear. It doesn't appear to have any major leaks or other obvious problems. The fuel door has a tab broken off, so it doesn't pop open when you hit the button, you have to open it by hand. This is what I know about the car...I do not know if this or that has been replaced. It is clear that it has not been abused, and is a nice looking car. You are encouraged to come take a look. Located in Stratford, CT. Must be picked up within a week of the end of auction. $1000 deposit due within 24 hours of auctions end, or it will be relisted. I recommend that it be towed/ trailered. I did drive the car home, by I cannot speak for it's long distance reliability. I can transport the car up to 100 miles for a fee, but this must be arranged and discussed prior to auction end. Sold 100% as is, and it is described as accurately as possible. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!

VW exec calls US ops a 'disaster'
Thu, 23 Jan 2014Today in the Tell Us How You Really Feel file we have Bernd Osterloh, head of Volkswagen AG's Group Works Councils and member of the company's supervisory board, labeling the company's US operations "a disaster." Why? Because Osterloh believes VW of America doesn't have the models it needs to be competitive here, hasn't been decisive enough about its plans and German higher-ups still don't understand the US market.
In truth, the top labor rep at the German conglomerate is echoing sentiments we've heard from VWoA executives for years, and there's been the same commentary from dealers: Germany doesn't pay enough attention to what the US market really wants. Even ex-VWoA CEO Stefan Jacoby, who preceded the recently departed Jonathan Browning, said early in his tenure that one of his tasks was to get his German bosses to start delivering what the US market demanded. New CEO Michael Horn is saying much the same thing seven years later, telling Sky News that it has to increase "the speed at which we bring new models to the market and innovation to the market."
Osterloh wants to get "more models" here, including a pickup truck, but we'd wonder if the economics have changed from when Jacoby said they'd need to sell 100,000 per year to make money. Osterloh also wants a decision on where the CrossBlue will be built. Although it looked as if the Chatanooga, TN plant would get the call, the Puebla, Mexico plant is still in the running because of lower operating costs. No matter what happens right now, Osterloh thinks the situation won't get better for another two years when revamped models arrive, but at least the company can start taking the steps for a better US future.
VW midsize crossover production headed for Chattanooga
Fri, 10 Jan 2014Potential labor woes aside, it looks like Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN factory must have done something that impressed the bosses in Germany, because it sounds like the three-year-old factory is set to score a second model.
The factory currently builds the Passat, and has been in the running alongside VW's Puebla, Mexico factory to build a new crossover vehicle, likely based on the CrossBlue Concept. According to Bloomberg, a pair of unnamed sources have confirmed that Chattanooga is the favorite ahead of an official announcement.
When last we heard about the CrossBlue Concept, word was that a production decision had been delayed over concerns about the three-row CUV's business case. That August 2013 story claimed that a decision regarding the CrossBlue would be pushed back until early in 2014, which means we're ripe for some sort of news, whether good or bad.
UK auto magazine says this is the best car commercial of all time [w/videos]
Thu, 20 Dec 2012There have been many great car commercials over the years, but is it possible to define the best? Well, Ad Week recently took a crack at it by rating the top commercials of the year by looking at their view counts on YouTube, but Auto Express took a more democratic approach by putting the decision to a vote. Just after Thanksgiving, Auto Express came up with a list of the 20 popular commercials, and it tasked its readers with choosing the winner for the best car ad of all time. The winner? Honda's 2003 commercial for its then-new European Accord titled "The Cog."
While the ad never aired in the US, most car people have surely seen the impressive Rube Goldberg-style spot. In fact, the only commercial on this list that we saw on US television was the Volkswagen ad "The Force," but many of the others have become viral videos, including transforming and dancing Citroën C4. Of the 19 other commercials that vied for the title of best ad of all time, only the Ford Puma "Steve McQueen" commercial gave Honda a run for its advertising money.
