Sale not final until payment is CLEARED!
Dont bother buying unless you have at least messaged me first!
This is not a silly tee shirt you bid on then get in the mail, this is a car, Serious buyers only. Local pickup only. I PREFER BUYER CONTACT ME AND ARRANGE TO COME SEE IT BEFORE BUYING OR OFFERING! All sales FINAL! Payment method : Cashiers check! money order! not personal check, and probably not paypal unless its a special situation. But in general if you are coming in person to look at the car, and to pick up the car, you can bring a physical form of payment. Sold AS IS! There IS A LEAN HOLDER On the title! We will have to discuss how we will change over the title, but know that when you have paid i will remove the license plate and insurance from the car, and you will not be able to register it until you have the title, which will be after i have the title, witch will be after my bank send it out! just know that! :) patience may be required! :)
THE ENGINE LIGHT IS CURRENTLY ON! the code that its popping is something like " secondary air flow insufficient ". Dont quote me, i may be a little off, autozone can tell you for sure, for free! My mechanic says its nothing to really worry about, it could be/ probably is something as simple as a air-line that's bent and wont let air pass, or has a snag or hole in it. ten dollar fix if i can ever get the time to get it in the shop to find it! problem is its my daily driver and i can not afford to take the time to let my mechanic have it for days to work on it (my favorite mechanics are slow...but amazingly VW Smart and trustworthy!) Passed my last emissions inspection by having the code reset, it takes almost 1000 miles to come back on, you can get an inspection after reset by about 100 miles! do the math, that's approx 900 miles of OKAY zone. I bought this car from a DEALER who KNEW this light as on, reset it, and sold it to me anyway. i didnt even get home without it coming on. Been driving it this whole time, it does not affect performance at all!
The 5-speed Turbo is quicker than you may think! same engine as the 2001 GTI's. it might be a typical girl car but its not as dainty as it looks.
You will be spoiled to the great gas millage and amazing horsepower combo!
Realistically Buying this car from the dealer in this area you would be doing well to get it for less than $5500 plus all the fees, KBB says it is worth $3799 from a dealer. but only 2800 private party. I'm not a dealer trying to make commission. Im not gonna lie about whats wrong with it and whats been done. But, I gotta make what I need to pay my loans off, so, that's why the price is what it is. I'm trying to break even here, but if to sell it means lowering the price i will. so contact me!!!
2001 Red VW Beetle Sport 1.8 20V Turbo
169,xxx miles
5 Speed Manual
Cream leather int. W/ heated seats, Cruise control, Tinted windows, power locks and windows, Sunroof, 6 CD player, Premium rims, radio w/ aux port, & pop-out spoiler.
Amazing gas millage! Internet says only about 25 but I have measured upward of thirty mpg.
I have done most of the general maintenance you will have to worry about with a car this age/ mileage. I replaced all the brakes and rotors feb. 2012 (shortly after I bought it), Two rear bushings in oct. 2012 and the alternator in April this year. The timing belt and water pump were replaced at 100,000 by previous owner. Whole A/C unit was replaced this time last year. Two back tires are less than a month old. Two front tires were rotated from the back at the same time and have barely any wear. I also have two more full size tires I bought on sale I can sell if you're interested. you can buy them from me and not have to worry about being stuck with a flat and having to pay some outrageous price to a shop, also in my experience most shops don't keep this size in stock so its good to be prepared.
I have the receipts for all of this work and some more, not all the oil changes because i did quite a few myself, but they have been done on a very regular basis!

Volkswagen Cross Up! aimed at rugged lifestyle folks, complete with plastic cladding
Wed, 06 Mar 2013If 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.
VW outsells GM in China for first time in 8 years
Fri, 26 Oct 2012In case you didn't know, Volkswagen is hell-bent on becoming the largest automaker in the world. The German carmaker has inched closer to that goal, having outsold General Motors in China last quarter for the first time in eight years.
Volkswagen's sales in China, its largest marker, increased by 21 percent last quarter to 704,991 units. Those numbers almost tripled GM's third-quarter growth, and were enough to beat out the American automaker's 664,765 sales. GM, however, still leads in year-to-date sales in China by a slim margin of around 77,000 units. The Asian nation also happens to be GM's largest market, and according to the report in Automotive News, China's car market may grow to be larger than the US, Japan and Germany combined in three years' time.
About the news his company was bested in China by VW last quarter, GM CEO Dan Akerson is quoted saying, "It's not whether you're the biggest car manufacturer. It's whether you want to be the most profitable." It should be noted of these figures that GM includes truck figures, yet excludes Hong Kong and Macau from its Chinese sales numbers, while VW does just the opposite. Through September of this year, Volkswagen had 5 of the 10 best selling vehicles in China. GM boasted three of the cars on that list.
2015 VW Golf R caught getting a flogging on 'Ring
Wed, 22 May 2013The upcoming version of the Volkswagen Golf R is nearly ready for prime time, if this video of the car flying around the Nürburgring is any indication. The all-wheel-drive R seems to make quick, neat work of the corners we see here, and sounds pretty devilish in the process.
Expectations are that the new Golf R will run a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder (what else?), tuned to produce even more than the current car's 256 horsepower. (Some sources have indicated outputs as high as 286 horsepower, with 280 pound-feet of torque. It's still not clear if Volkswagen will bring the six-speed dual-clutch transmission to the US-spec Golf R in this next go-round or if we'll stick to having only... eh... the stick.
In either case - watching the video below will only whet your appetite for the new, highest performing member of the Golf family.
