Hello, I have a very nice 2006 VW convertible for sale. The car has been babyed and only driven in warm weather and garaged the rest of the time. We have decided to sell it as we hardly ever drive it and it needs to be driven . Its such a cool fun car. My wife and I bought this in 2010 from a woman in Albuquerque NM and I drove it back to CO. The day I picked it up I had not really had any experience with this type of car but I can assure you when I drove back the 700mi to my home I learned a ton and I was very impressed overall. This thing will fly right along and has the wide profile tires and rims and will corner surprisingly well. I had a couple of old vws in the day but believe me this aint your grandmas vw. Since we have owned it we have taken very good care of it and have done all the required maintenance at the dealer near us. I have replace the driver side window regulator, has a brand new battery and the tires still have good tread on them. The car runs great and all the electronics work as they should. This bug has an amazing sound system with speakers on the dash, in the doors and in the back seat area. Its called Monsoon and is a very high quality system. If your not aware it also has the sport shifting system which lets you shift this like a standard type transmission so if you are in the mountains you can down shift and save the wear and tear on the brakes. Its really a cool feature in mountain or street driving and works well. The other item that blows me away is the color of this particular car . Apparently vw used many shades of blue for this vehicle but I believe mine is the best of them all . It has a slight metalflake look to it and is exquisite when you look close at it . I looked hard to find the convertible with the right look and this has the right look with dark blue and tan . The tan also is cooler than black in the sun . The tan roof shows more than the black roof but it shows way classier I think. Never had heated seats and that is another great feature. The outside mirrors have lights in them for the turn signals also very cool. This car is just cool and fun and gives very good fuel economy. If someone were to buy this and take care of it I can see this becoming a classic down the road. It just has a vibe. Please email with any questions and Ill try to get back quickly. We hope this goes to someone who really appreciates the car and I look forward to that person driving away into the sun with a big grin on their face and the wind in their hair. Thanks

VW agrees to halt next-gen rally car development to help others stay in WRC
Sat, 22 Jun 2013Volkswagen has petitioned the FIA to hold on to the current specifications for cars in the World Rally Championship, according to Autosport.com. The move is evidently an effort to keep as many competitors in the sport as possible, despite the fact that using the current spec racers may actually hurt Volkswagen's chances at winning. The three factory teams currently competing in the WRC are at the end of a three-year homologation cycle at the end of 2013, and new cars are expected to bow next year. But developing new racers could cost as much as $4.7 million.
That price tag would put M-Sport (which fields Ford racers) out of the WRC game for 2014 and would put Citroën participation in question as well. VW has already begun work on the next iteration of its Polo R WRC, and the hatch has nabbed four wins in six rounds this season. Now it appears that car won't bow until at least 2015. The FIA has officially agreed to freeze homologation of new WRC cars until the end of next season.
Volkswagen profit jumps as it warns of a cooling auto market
Wed, Oct 30 2019FRANKFURT, Germany — Volkswagen says its profits jumped 44% in the third quarter thanks to a more profitable mix of vehicles in its lineup but warned that global car markets are slowing more than expected and lowered its forecast for annual sales. After-tax profit rose to $4.42 billion (3.98 billion euros) as revenues rose 11% to $68.27 billion (61.42 billion euros). The sales margin of 7.8% exceeded the goal of 6.5-7.5% as vehicles bringing higher profits took a larger share of sales. The Wolfsburg-based automaker pointed to the headwinds facing the industry by saying that it expects "vehicle markets will contract faster than previously anticipated in many regions of the world." It said sales would be "on a level" with last year's record of 10.8 million vehicles. Previously it had expected a slight increase. The company said its profits would be in the lower end of its forecast range. Global automakers are facing a slowdown in sales amid disputes over trade and from pressure in the European Union and China to develop and sell low-emission vehicles that require heavy investment in new technology. Ford and Renault have issued profit warnings in recent days, while Daimler, maker of Mercedes-Benz luxury cars, lost money in the second quarter and is expected to outline a cost-cutting strategy for investors on Nov. 14. Volkswagen is leading the push into electric vehicles in Europe by launching its ID.3 battery-powered compact car at prices it says will make zero local emission vehicles a mass phenomenon. The company was able to increase earnings in the quarter despite an 18% rise in spending on research and development.
VW adding particulate filters to gas engines
Wed, Aug 3 2016Volkswagen is working hard to overcome the PR disaster that is its diesel emissions scandal, and part of its efforts is focusing, weirdly, on petrol engines. Starting in June 2017, the embattled German automaker will add particulate filters to the gas-powered Volkswagen Tiguan and Audi A5. The change will eventually impact nearly every direct-injected gas engine the VW Group makes. Audi? Particulate filter. Seat? Particulate filter. Even Bentley is going to get the tech, all in a bid to reduce soot emissions by 90 percent. In fact, by 2022 VAG expects 7 million of its vehicles to boast the emissions-cleaning tech, which has long been a fixture on diesel engines. "Following increases in efficiency and lower CO2 output, we are now bringing about a sustained reduction in the emission levels of our modern petrol engines by fitting particulate filters as standard," Volkswagen Group research and design boss Dr. Ulrich Eichhorn said in a statement. "In the future, all models will be equipped with the latest and most efficient SCR catalytic converter technology." VW's initial rollout focuses on the 1.4-liter, turbocharged Tiguan and the 2.0-liter, turbocharged A5. Considering the popularity of the 2.0-liter across the VW range, we'd expect it's only a matter of time before VW expands its particulate filters tech to additional gas-powered vehicles.
