First, if you don’t know allot about the Phaeton here is a link to a thorough review:

www.acarplace.com/reviews/2005/phaeton.html

THIS IS A EXTREMELY RARE, SUPER LOW MILEAGE 2004 aubergine nocturne Volkswagen Phaeton.  I am the proud third owner of this beautiful VW vehicle.  The Phaeton just passed PA emissions and inspection last week.  I planed on trading the Phaeton in on our the new vehicle for our family, but I feel based on the service history, extraordinary low mileage, great condition, color combo rarity, and care put into this vehicle the dealerships offer of $10k trade was quite low and I could do better selling it outright. 

How rare you ask?  Well, there is only ONE, YES ONE aubergine nocturne for sale in all of North America with lower miles (51,000).  TOTAL, there are only THREE Phaetons under 60,000 miles for sale in NA, with the lowest asking price at $19k.

It goes without saying that a vehicle with low of mileage rarely comes along.  Better yet, it will easily qualify for a extended warranty.  For instance, when we bought the car a couple years ago we purchased a extended warranty for just over a grand, and it was good for 5 years, or 100 ODO.  This existing warrenty we have may be transferable to the new owner, but we will have to check on that and can't guarantee it will.    

That being said, within the last 3,000 miles the following items have been serviced by our local Audi/VW dealers certified Phaeton technician:

  1. Factory wheels have been chromed.  Yes, these are OEM Phaeton wheels that are load support bearing for the extensive weight of this vehicle.  This is the only Phaeton I have ever seen with chrome wheels and it really completes the high end look.
  2. Transmission mechatronics unit was replaced
  3. All transmission fluids flushed
  4. Two rear window regulators replaced
  5. Rear factory door speaker replaced
  6. Oil & air filter changed on schedule
  7. Billet aluminum oil cap (A MUST for changing oil since the factory plastic one can strip!!!)
  8. New brake pads front and rear
  9. New spark plugs
  10. 4 New all Season Michelin Tires
  11. New wiper blades
  12. New HID headlamp Bulbs
  13. Both batteries in the rear replaced with heavy duty AGM batteries
  14. LLumar (very light) window film
  15. All season VW factory Phaeton front floor mats (very hard to find)
  16. All season rear long wheel base floor mats (very hard to find as well)
  17. 70% window film all around
  18. Refrigerator Cool Box upgrade in rear center arm rest (REALLY NEAT FEATURE)!
  19. All CD-roms for the navigation are available, including the compatible 2013 BMW update CD-roms.
  20. Finally, the car has adjustable billet aluminum lowering links from the UK.  The factory arms have been kept as well for the new owner.  Lowers the car 2”-3” for a nice clean look.

To the very best of my knowledge, all electronic features work on this vehicle (i.e. interior lights, buttons, mirrors, etc.).  In addition, there is practically no wear on any surfaces, and even the driver seat looks great (i.e. the love handle rubbing from getting in/out is about 95% non existent).  In full disclosure, the only item that requires attention is the windshield washer squirter since it is not pushing out enough fluid (i.e. loss of pressure in the line somewhere, but the motor sounds strong).  Perhaps the nozzle need replaced or lines checked?  Should be a simple fix for someone handy so I will not attend to it before selling at such a low price due to the hassle.  Otherwise, all she needs is a good home and caring new owner. 

Good luck and happy bidding!  Feel free to contact me for a phone number to discuss through ebay too.  I AM NOT DEALER, and tire kickers not appreciated. NO TRADES, again, only selling to do a little better than the dealer trade in offer and get quick cash.  Clear title, but note…the lein has been paid off as of 1-10-14, but it may still show since the title is in process from our financial institution to us.  Please, do not let this become a concern, we will verify the lien is paid in full for interested parties.  All factory VW service receipts dating back to around 2007 included in sale as well. No pets, no smoking, no odors, garage kept.  Exceptionally clean throughout. THANK YOU!!!!

I reserve the right to end the auction early, so if interested, please make me a (reasonable) offer.

VW Golf GTD wagon makes us swoon ahead of Geneva reveal

Thu, Jan 29 2015

The European market is just crammed with power wagons we can't get our hands on: big ones like the Audi RS6 Avant and Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake, but also little ones like the new Mercedes CLA45 AMG Shooting Brake, Skoda Octavia RS and Seat Leon ST Cupra. Now there'll be one more, and as you might have guessed, it comes from the Volkswagen Group. At the upcoming Geneva Motor Show, VW will present the new Golf GTD Variant. And if you're wondering what it's all about, it's all right there in the name: those three letters tell us it's a performance diesel, and the Variant name tells us it's a wagon (which we'd more readily recognize as the SportWagen on this side of the Atlantic). So there you have it: a performance-oriented diesel wagon, but not one we're never likely to see on American roads. If you ever did see one up close, though, you'd find a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four under the hood with 181 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque – enough to send this nimble oil tanker to 62 in 7.9 seconds, all the while returning over 53 miles per gallon (on the lenient European cycle, anyway). Along with the engine, VW has thrown in other GTD performance-minded bits, including a sports suspension and progressive steering. Visual telltales include unique front and rear bumpers, grilles, 17-inch alloys, blacked-out roof rails, smoked taillight lenses and an interior with plaid sports seats, stainless steel pedals... the works. European buyers will be able to enjoy all this and more while hauling all their stuff down the Autobahn, passing gas station after gas station in oil-burning bliss. World premiere of the new Golf GTD Variant - The perfect all-round package: sporty, economical, comfortable and spacious - Launch set for Geneva Motor Show Since 1982 Volkswagen's GTD logo has stood for Gran Turismo Diesel, with its promise of sporty yet economical motoring. Now for the first time, the GTD initials grace the Golf Variant, which like the Golf GTD, boasts the 184 PS (135 kW) TDI engine. The new Golf GTD Variant is set for its world premiere at the Geneva Motor Show, and is available to order as of now at a price of 31,975 euros. The Golf GTD Variant* is excellently placed to establish itself as an iconic long-distance cruiser.

Editors' Choice: Top Five 2013 Geneva Motor Show Debuts

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

We've returned from a very busy week in Switzerland, and in going back over all of our 75 stories from the Geneva Motor Show, our editors have gathered up their personal favorite debuts from the European expo.
The wonderful thing about the Geneva show is just how wide of an array of vehicles are on display - everything from funny little one-off EVs to the most exotic of supercars to, well, truly ridiculous displays of coachbuilding. And because of that, this list of our editors' favorites might not be as predictable as you think.
But we don't want to give anything away just yet. Scroll down to have a look at our team's favorites from Geneva.

Automakers face reality of EVs' cost — to jobs, and their bottom line

Tue, Sep 12 2017

Related: We obsessively covered the Frankfurt Motor Show — here's our complete coverage FRANKFURT, Germany — European car bosses gathering for the Frankfurt auto show are beginning to address the realities of mass vehicle electrification, and its consequences for jobs and profit, their minds focused by government pledges to outlaw the combustion engine. As the latest such announcement by China added momentum to a push for zero-emissions motoring, Daimler, Volkswagen and PSA Group gave details about their electric programs that could give policymakers some pause. Planned electric Mercedes models will initially be just half as profitable as conventional alternatives, Daimler warned — forcing the group to find savings by outsourcing more component manufacturing, which may in turn threaten German jobs. "In-house production is almost irrelevant to the consumer," Daimler boss Dieter Zetsche told reporters on the eve of the Frankfurt Motor Show, in the midst of a German election campaign in which automotive jobs have loomed large. The company set a target of saving 4 billion euros ($4.8 billion) by 2025 to help fund the cost of its electric cars. "Daimler is the first company to state explicitly how much electric vehicles are going to hurt margins," said Bernstein analyst Max Warburton. "It was brave to go first — but of course it won't be the last." Volkswagen, for its part, said it was seeking new global supplier contracts to source 50 billion euros ($60 billion) of electric car content including batteries, which are not yet manufactured competitively in Europe. "A company like Volkswagen must lead, not follow," Chief Executive Matthias Mueller told reporters. VW diesel emissions-cheating exposed by U.S. regulators in 2015 triggered global public outrage, dozens more investigations into test-rigging by the wider industry and a push by some lawmakers to ban diesel and eventually all engines. TIGHTENING NOOSE Tesla shares jumped nearly 6 percent on Monday after a Chinese minister said it was a question of when, not if, Beijing bans fossil-fuel cars, tightening the noose around the combustion engine. France and Britain have promised its outright abolition by 2040. But PSA, the maker of Peugeots and Citroens, said it was concerned about the risks if consumers were left behind in the rush, and a new generation of battery cars does not sell.
