See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Brake lights are not working. All other lights work. A Mechanic told me because the other lights work that the brake light switch needs to be replaced. Beetle could use a tune up. The beetle has been parked in my garage for 5 years and only driven during the summer on nice days and for car shows. I put a half tank of gas in it but, I think there is still old fuel in it. There is a small surface scratch on the right side just in front of the rear fender. It is about an inch long and just on the surface. It is so small that I could not get a picture of it. The seats are all in good shape but do have some small stains. Where the header and exhaust exit out the right rear, the rear panel gets hot and I can see the paint starting to bubble. It is not peeling but you can see when the exhaust is hot that the paint lifts upward. It is a spot the size of a silver dollar. If I were to keep it, I would route the exhaust out the rear center. The car is over 40 years old so it is not perfect."

You are bidding on my wife's 1969 VW Beetle coupe. I bought it from a Marine Officer who said it spent most of its life in Arizona before he transferred to North Carolina. Solid floor pans and all around solid car. I had the beetle painted about 5 years ago which cost me about $2,000.00. I painted it for my wife and it is called Hawaiian Hibiscus Red. It looks like a dark candy apple red. I replaced chrome including chrome running boards. Headliner is in great shape. The dash pad is new and replaced a couple years ago. The wheels are chrome VW rims with VW moon caps. Tires are still like new. The odometer reads 20,000 so, I think it is 120,000 miles. The Marine Officer said he rebuilt the engine when he bought it in 2001. I bought this car with the intent to do a ground up restoration for my wife. Due to military deployments the beetle sat in the garage most of the time and I just do not have the time to devote to it. I want it to go to someone that will enjoy a classic VW.   

Brake lights are not working. All other lights work. A Mechanic told me because the other lights work that the brake light switch needs to be replaced. Beetle could use a tune up. This beetle is 44 years old and does drip a few drops of oil after running but, does not leak constantly. The beetle has been parked in my garage for over 5 years and only driven during the summer on nice days and for car shows. I put a half tank of gas in it recently but, I think there is still old fuel in it. There is a small surface scratch on the right side just in front of the right rear fender. It is about an inch long and just on the surface. It is so small that I could not get a picture of it. Drivers door could use some adjusting. It is a little hard to close. The seats are all in good shape with no rips but, do have some small stains. Where the header and exhaust exit out the right rear, the rear panel gets hot and I can see the paint starting to bulge up. It is not peeling but you can see when the exhaust is hot that the paint lifts upward. It is a spot the size of a silver dollar. If I were to keep it, I would route the exhaust out the rear center. The car is over 40 years old so it is not perfect.

I know that I probably forgot something. I do have the VW Beetle listed locally and reserve the right to end this auction at anytime. 

I am happy to answer all your questions.You are welcome to come view the car or have a mechanic inspect it for you. I am available for questions via Ebay email.  I have 100% feed back so, bid with confidence. 

Clear title and I am not looking for any trades. Bidders with 0 feedbacks will be cancelled. A $500.00 deposit (non-refundable) is due after the auction ends. Balance to paid in cash prior to transfer of ownership. 

Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

Europeans get first crack at new Golf Variant wagon

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Just last week, when we brought you news of a new Volkswagen Golf variant out and testing in Europe, we had no idea we were being so literal with out description. For it seems that VW has every intention of calling its new Golf wagon, making its Geneva debut, the "Golf Variant."
Odd/interesting sobriquets taken as read then, there's a lot to like about this new small wagon from VW. The Variant will shed some 232 pounds in this generation, and will come to market with two efficient TDI engines. Volkswagen isn't giving us displacement figures for either yet, but we're told the diesels will come with outputs of 110 and 150 horsepower. The 110-hp TDI BlueMotion Varient will be good for a whopping 71.3 miles per gallon on the European cycle, when mated to the six-speed manual transmission.
The German automaker has brought along an all-wheel-drive 4Motion version of the Gold Variant to bow in Geneva, as well, and a natural gas-burning TGI BlueMotion is said to be "in the pipeline."

Volkswagen Cross Up! aimed at rugged lifestyle folks, complete with plastic cladding

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

If you thought there was nothing wrong with the Volkswagen Up! that a little body cladding wouldn't fix, you're in luck. VW has officially pulled the wraps off the production version of the Cross Up!, and its wheel arches and rocker panels are full of the black plastic cladding you've been yearning for.
In addition to the "particularly rugged design and tough, lifestyle qualities" that the cladding exudes, VeeDub has also seen fit to put its Cross Up! on a new set of 16-inch alloy wheels clad in 185/50-series tires. Inside, there are new kick plates to go along with a dash pad that can be had in red, black or silver.
All that cladding must equal additional off-road readiness, right? Well, sure... just so long as you're fine with the same 75-horsepower three-cylinder engine that all other Up! models also feature, along with a five-speed manual transmission sending power to the front wheels, again, just like all other Up! models. The Cross Up! appears to have a taller ride height than other models, but we haven't been able to find out what - if any - changes have been made.

Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Mercedes also under diesel emissions scrutiny

Sat, Oct 10 2015

The controversy over Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal isn't limited to the US. In Europe, where diesel engines are far more popular, the issue is shining a harsh light on the NEDC emissions test. As already known, the evaluation does a poor job of reflecting real-world production of NOx, and it appears a significant number of automakers are affected. The Guardian in the UK has been reporting on real-world test results from a company called Emissions Analytics. After the latest round of checks, vehicles from Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Mazda and Mitsubishi were found to generate far more NOx than they should. The newspaper also published similar results for Renault, Nissan, Hyundai, Fiat, Volvo, Jeep, Citroen, VW, and Audi. On average, the figures are about four times over the limit of producing the pollutant. Unlike VW and its defeat device, these automakers aren't actually breaking the rules. The vehicles perform up to the NEDC lab test for emissions, but those results simply aren't translated to the street. "The VW issue in the US was purely the trigger which threw light on a slightly different problem in the EU - widespread legal over-emissions," Nick Molden from Emissions Analytics said to The Guardian. A big fight to decide the future of this issue appears to be on the horizon. Automakers claim that they can't meet the next round of tightening emissions regulations and are asking for compromises. Although, spokespeople for Mercedes and Honda told The Guardian that the brands would be in favor of the stricter rules. Meanwhile, some European governments began backtracking their support of diesels well before this scandal came to light. The added scrutiny certain hasn't helped the future of the oil-burner.
