I bought this '98 beetle to drive back and forth to work and save on fuel. The car has never gotten less than 40 mpg in the city or on the highway(usually average 44). I have had great luck out of the car until it started acting up. It dies at random times. Sometimes it will die seconds after you crank it, sometimes it will die after 30 miles or so, and sometimes it will run for a day or two before it acts up. I changed the fuel filter, but it didn't help. From everything i've read, i believe it is the quantity adjuster on the fuel pump that is acting up. The people that have had this same issue said they have taken the fuel pump apart and cleaned the quantity adjuster and it works fine; and some people eneded up needing a fuel pump. At worst the car needs a fuel pump. It is located in Garrison Texas, and you are more than welcome to come check the car out in person before you bid. It is a very solid car with a 5 speed and the tdi diesel. Other than the fuel problem its having now, it has been a great little car and i think is a steal if it sells near the starting price. This is a NO RESERVE auction so good luck and serious buyers can call or text me with any questions. I will do anything i can to help with the pick up of the car if you send a shipping truck.

VW XL1 priced at $169,000 in UK, only 30 will be sold there
Wed, Jul 2 2014Volkswagen has announced the pricing of its XL1 diesel plug-in hybrid for the UK, according to Car magazine. The small, uber-efficient two-seater will start at GBP98,515, or roughly $168,930 at current exchange rates. Additionally, only 30 units of the XL1 will be sold throughout the UK, giving it a rareness appropriate for its lofty price. It's nice to finally be able to stop speculating about the XL1's price. Even as recently as the first XL1 delivery in Germany, we were still mostly in the dark concerning the cost of the slippery VW. But is the price worth it, especially considering that the much sportier BMW i8 can be had for just a bit more (GBP99,895, or $171,460, in the UK)? Car seems to think so, noting that the XL1 is an eco and technology pioneer, and saying that its cost of ownership is "merely the price of progress." Plus, that includes the bragging rights of owning the world's most fuel-efficient car. The XL1's two-cylinder turbo-diesel engine displaces just eight-tenths of a liter and produces 47 horsepower. The internal combustion engine operates alongside a 26-horsepower electric motor powered by a 5.5-kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Despite its 2.64-gallon fuel tank, the XL1 has a maximum driving range of over 700 miles thanks to a 261-mpg rating (based on the European cycle). Unfortunately, we won't be able to do any bladder-busting, nonstop Chicago to DC road trips any time soon, as VW has no plans to bring the XL1 to North America - not that one would relish the experience of dicing it up with America's massive trucks and SUVs. If you want to drive one, you'll have to go to Europe, and you'd better have a very large piggy bank you're prepared to break open.
