1982 Vw Rabbit Diesel Manual on 2040-cars
Year:1982
Mileage:220000

Chicago, Illinois, United States

This is a great little car that gets 40 (in town) 45-50 (highway), but it needs some work. It has 220,000 miles on it. I'm selling it because I’m looking to get a newer car. Here are the pros and cons. Pros (the following prices are from partsplaceinc) - 5 Speed = $200 Mostly New Tires (I replaced all the tires no more than 12,000 ago. They all have good tread). = $109 New Heater Core (As is the case with these older cars, the heater core rusted out and I got radiator fluid all over my floor panels. So I replaced that last winter). = $170 ish New Breaks (Front discs and break pads, and rear break pads all replaced since November). = $100 Radio & Front Speakers (See pic below) = $230 New Injectors, Heat Shields, and Returns = $35 All Radiator Hoses Replaced Since I purchased the car. = $35 Back Left Wheel Bearings (inside and outside) just changed. = $45? Right Drive Shaft Replaced (no more than 12,000 miles ago). Total = $924 that you don't have to spend in parts yourself. -Goodies included - = 24 Timing Belt (I think I bought the tension too. That would be another $27) 19 x 4 = 76 Glow Plugs, = 30 Injector Socket, = 12 Break Vacuum Pump Kit, = 40 Compression Tester Total = 182 + 924 = $1100 on parts for the car that you will not need to spend. Cons -Injection Pump needs work (It currently runs, but will die when it is still cold and has an uneven idle when warm. Additionally, it is smoking much more than it should). -Vacuum Pump not working (I have the rebuild kit which would come with the car, just haven't installed it yet. The breaks work, but are stiff without the aid of the pump). -A Few Rust Holes (These are on the passenger side right behind the wheel. See pics below. One of the previous owners dented it there allowing salt to corrode the metal. But for a 34 year-old car that has been in the Mid-west all its life, this is not bad). -Dent (A previous owner hit the back right corner into a pole. I have been working on building it back up, but haven't had time to finish the project. See pic below). -Primer Paint Job (The car was originally silver, but has been painted orange and then primer black. On the negative side, it doesn't look all that pretty. On the positive side, the additional layers of paint have helped preserve the body over the years). -Tail Light Casing Cracked/Chipped (The plastic casing that holds the bulbs is cracked off at points. There is place for two bulbs to be hooked up per tail-light, but only one is currently hooked to each). -Steering Wheel Bearing and Cover (The lower bearing in the steering shaft is missing, which means it clanks when you turn the wheel. Also, the center cover to the steering wheel is missing. See pic below. The horn still works by grounding the horn wire to the metal of the steering wheel).

2015 VW e-Golf gets cheaper Limited Editon, starts at $33,450*
Thu, Mar 5 2015Typically when an automaker announces a new limited edition of one of its models, it comes at a premium. Maybe the extra cost turns out to be worth it due to bundled options, but there's almost always a cost. But not with the new Volkswagen e-Golf Limited Edition. For this model, VW has gone the opposite direction by cutting equipment out of the electric hatchback and charging less for it. Compared to the SEL Premium model, the Limited Edition of the e-Golf drops the alloys in favor of 16-inch steel wheels, halogen headlights in place of LEDs, cloth upholstery instead of leatherette, and drops the heat-pump system. As a result, the e-Golf costs $2,000 less, priced at $33,450 (*before delivery) and available to lease for $229 per month. For that, you still get the electric motor with 199 pound-feet of torque, 24.2 kWh lithium-ion battery and 7.2 kW onboard charger and class-leading energy consumption. VOLKSWAGEN ANNOUNCES A NEW TRIM LINE FOR THE FULLY-ELECTRIC 2015 e-GOLF - e-Golf Limited Edition model goes on sale with a starting price of $33,450 - Drivetrain consists of 24.2 kWh lithium-ion battery and an electric motor with 199 pound-feet of torque; 7.2 kW onboard charger is standard - Standard fast charging capability allows up to 80 percent battery charge in 30 minutes - EPA estimated fuel economy rating of 116 combined MPGe puts e-Golf at top of the 2015 EPA Compact Size Class - A great value, with a host of features that include KESSY® Keyless access with push-button start, navigation system, LED Daytime Running Lights (DRL) with C-shaped light signature, and more Herndon, VA – Volkswagen of America, Inc., today, announced that a lower-priced version of the fully-electric 2015 Volkswagen e-Golf will go on sale at participating dealerships. The 2015 e-Golf Limited Edition is priced nearly $2,000 less than its SEL counterpart at $33,450, without compromising performance, quality, or versatility. The e-Golf Limited Edition is also available at a monthly lease price of $229, plus applicable fees. The e-Golf Limited Edition is built on the same sporty Modular Transverse Matrix (MQB) platform as the rest of the award-winning Golf family. It is powered by a compact electric motor and a 24.2 kWh lithium-ion battery (built in-house at the Volkswagen facility in Braunschweig, Germany), and offers 115 horsepower and class-leading torque of 199 pound feet.
VW Golf Sportsvan succeeds Golf Plus in Frankfurt
Sun, 08 Sep 2013
Just ahead of this week's Frankfurt Motor Show, Volkswagen has announced the world premiere of its Golf Sportsvan, a near-production concept that succeeds its Golf Plus. VW describes this compact family car as "one of the most versatile vehicles of the compact class," noting that it offers a mix of hatchback and minivan features in a sporty package.
That sportiness comes from the Sportsvan's styling (perhaps more sleek wagon than minivan) and performance features it shares with the Golf GTI - including the XDS+ electronic differential lock, which is integrated into the Electronic Stability Control system to improve agility. At the same time, the Sportsvan's six engine options, which include a turbodiesel, are up to 19-percent more fuel-efficient than their predecessors.
