VERY NICE VW PASSAT WAGON. THIS HAS BEEN MY DAILY DRIVER AND IT REALLY IS A PLEASURE TO DRIVE. IT IS VERY COMFORTABLE, SMOOTH AND QUIET. I REGULARLY GET 30 MPG ON MY COMMUTE.
THE ENGINE IS THE 1.8T. I DRIVE APPROXIMATELY 1800 MILES BUT I CHANGE THE OIL MONTHLY REGARDLESS OF THE MILEAGE. I USE ONLY MOBIL 1 FULL SYNTHETIC. THE TIMING BELT, WATER PUMP, CAM TIMING CHAIN AND TENSIONER HAVE ALL BEEN REPLACED. THE CAR RUNS GREAT, IT HAS BEEN ADULT DRIVEN AND MAINTAINED. THE INTERIOR IS BLACK LEATHER, HEATED SEATS, POWER EVERYTHING AND HAS THE MONSOON STEREO SYSTEM (SOUNDS AWESOME). THE A/C IS ICE COLD AND THE HEAT IS PERFECT. THERE ARE A FEW STAINS IN THE HEADLINER, BUT NOT VERY NOTICEABLE. THE EXTERIOR IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION WITH ONLY A FEW MINOR DINGS AND SCRATCHES. AGAIN, NOT VERY NOTICEABLE. TIRES ARE GOODYEAR WITH PROBABLY 90% TREAD LIFE LEFT. I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS, OR SHOW ANYONE THE CAR THE CAR, BUT WITH THAT IN MIND I DO WORK NIGHTS SO IF YOU DON'T GET AN IMMEDIATE RESPONSE, I'M LIKELY ASLEEP WHILE YOU'RE AWAKE. THE CAR IS FOR SALE LOCALLY AS WELL. |

VW to relax ambitious US sales targets?
Fri, 16 May 2014The Volkswagen brand sold 407,704 cars last year, a 6.95-percent decline compared to 2012, and it's down a further 8.36 percent through the end of April 2014 compared to this time last year. In order to to put the sales football between its Strategy 2018 goal posts, the brand would need to add 100,000 more sales every year to achieve the lofty 800,000-unit target. Coming to grips with how unreasonable that is, VW US CEO Michael Horn has said, "For now, we have to have realistic targets."
The reasons for the brand's slow-down are imprecise, but lots of folks are throwing lots of reasons around. Last November, VW Group Chairman Ferdinand Piech told Bloomberg, "We understand Europe, we understand China and we understand Brazil, [but] we only understand the US to a certain degree so far." Analysts say the brand hasn't had midsize and compact SUV offerings, especially an overdue retail version of the CrossBlue, and the ones it does have are priced too high for their segments. It "didn't introduce enough new engines, or alternative technologies or model variants" for the Passat and Jetta. It devoted so many resources to China that the US market suffered. It was being outspent two-to-one on advertising by competitors. Its J.D. Power dependability ratings aren't high enough to overcome its past. It "has never really taken the US customer seriously." And so on.
There's still no official admission of defeat concerning the target, but reading between the lines there are some VW execs that appear to accept it won't happen short of some deus ex machina. Still,
Porsche board members facing another ˆ1.8B lawsuit over VW takeover bid
Mon, 03 Feb 2014Back in 2008, Porsche got the bright idea that it could take over Volkswagen in the midst of the worst economic slump since the Great Depression. Ignoring that this was a catastrophic move for the Stuttgart sports car manufacturer that that eventually resulted in it nearly going bankrupt and eventually being taken over by the same company it sought to control, the aftermath has left Porsche Chairman Wolfgang Porsche and board member Ferdinand Piëch in the crosshairs of seven hedge funds that lost out during the takeover and are now seeking €1.8 billion - $2.43 billion US - in damages from the two execs, according to the BBC.
See, investors bet on Volkswagen's share price going down, partially because Porsche said it wasn't going to attempt a takeover. But Porsche was attempting to take over VW, having bought up nearly 75-percent of VW's publicly traded shares. When word broke that Porsche owned nearly three-quarters of VW (which indicated an imminent takeover attempt), rather than go down like the hedge funds bet it would, VW's share price skyrocketed to over 1,000 euros per share, according to Reuters.
Naturally, when you bet that a company's share price is going to drop and it in turn (temporarily) becomes the world's most valuable company, you lose a lot of money, unless you're able to buy up shares before prices jump too much. This led to a squeeze on the stock, which the hedge funds accuse Porsche and Piëch (who are both members of the Porsche family and supervisory board) of organizing.
Updated J.D. Power APEAL study shines on VW Group, Chevy
Wed, 24 Jul 2013J.D. Power has just revealed the results of its 2013 APEAL Study, which looks at which brands have the most appealing cars based on sales figures, dealer inventory, brand loyalty, transaction and trade-in prices. The study was revamped for 2013, and places a larger focus on the new tech and infotainment options available to customers. All told, study participants gauged their vehicles on 77 different attributes, delivering a score out of a 1,000 points.
The Volkswagen Group had the greatest success of any corporation, topping the APEAL rankings with the Audi Allroad, Porsche Boxster, Porsche Cayenne, VW GTI and Passat. Chevrolet had the highest number of awards for a single brand, though, with the Avalanche, Sonic and Volt all taking home a prize.
The best brand overall was Porsche, which scored 884 out of a possible 1,000 points. The top Japanese brand was Lexus with a score of 847, while the top American brand was Cadillac, at 841. The best mainstream brand was Ram, which received a very respectable 817. The industry average for this year's study was 795, with 16 brands, all of which were mainstream, falling below the average.
