This sweet little BLUE 4dr Golf is an automatic GLS.She has a sun/moon roof and heated seats, Tape/CD player and all that other stuff. :)

Mileage is 70,348 which is pretty low given her age. She is a 2003.
I'm the only owner, but bought it used with 5,000 miles on it. It was a dealer rental car prior to my purchase.
I bought her the day that I moved to LA from North Carolina. She's been across the country a couple of times. I rarely drove her b/c my work was always either really close or at home. She's mostly just seen the freeway, but she's gotten pretty dinged up from street parking in Santa Monica, and sitting under some pretty gnarly trees that weren't kind to her hood paint job. 

The paint has gone bad, starting with the hood and now moving along to the side panels on the top of the car on both sides of the hood. It needs to be repainted. There are also several other minor damage areas that look awful, but should be quick inexpensive updates, for example the front grill is busted up and missing, one of the side view mirrors is cracked, there are scrapes along the sides. It's a little beat up, but if you don't care or if you are an aspiring or accomplished auto body mechanic, then this is the project of your dreams. Fix er up and sell er for a profit!

I've kept her oil changed and her tires good throughout time, but she's probably due some new oil. I think her tires are still pretty legit though - with lots of road life left in them. I'll got kick em for you for sure if you have any questions.

This little car has been SOOooo good to me and I kind of want her to go to a great home more than I care about making a couple thousand bucks. She'll be missed. I used to smoke cigarettes in her, but I haven't in YEARS, and she doesn't seem to hold the smell. I no longer smoke so neither does she. She cleans up quite nice, but she shows her age.

You can view an album of her photos here, and feel free to reach out to me if you'd like additional information. MORE PICS

2015 VW Golf R caught getting a flogging on 'Ring

Wed, 22 May 2013

The 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.

Tesla tires turning on Stretchla Vanagon EV conversion project

Tue, Jan 7 2014

It is one thing to say you are going to Frankenstein a Tesla Model S with a pair of Siamese-twinned Volkswagen Vanagons and quite another to actually start taking your newly-acquired, smashed-up electric sedan apart in an effort to bring it back to life. Otmar Ebenhoech is doing just that, and having no small successes along the way. The Stretchla project, as it is being called, has officially started and our protagonist has put together another bit of video to document his progress and let us know about some of the different challenges he's encountered and conquered. While our original post about this endeavor featured video of the stretched Vanagon's drivetrain removal, this latest installment focuses on the Model S. Otmar received the Tesla in less-than-operable condition. Otmar received the Tesla in less-than-operable condition and has been tackling some of the basic problems one might expect to encounter: lots of error messages and an electrically disconnected battery pack. Without the aid of a manual or technical diagrams, he's removed the battery pack and discovered why it wasn't sending power to the car. Scroll below to watch the ten-minute presentation and celebrate some initial victories. You can also check out the official Stretchla blog for more photos and updates, including the most recent one that discusses how he talked himself into paying (*spoiler alert) $42,000 for a wrecked, non-functional electric car, along with more recent struggles with the steering rack. Hit us up in the comments to let us know what kind of trouble you would get into with a Model S drivetrain of your own. This content is hosted by a third party.

Volkswagen Group, BMW Z4 top Total Value Awards by Strategic Vision

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

It was just nine months ago that Strategic Vision announced its 2011 Total Value Awards, but you don't have to wait until next year for the 2012 awards. The Volkswagen Group keeps its lead as the number one brand, with seven products taking top category spots: Golf, Jetta Wagon, CC, Eos and Audi A3 Wagon, Q5 and Q7. Strategic Vision says "true innovation" - "rich and impactful, intuitive, motivational, in-depth and is able to trigger description by the user in great specificity" - is the open secret of the brands with the strongest showings. Results are culled from 77,153 owners covering more than 350 new cars bought between September of 2011 and 2012 ranked in the Total Value Index (TVI).
Other notable winners are Hyundai-Kia following VW in the brand category and having the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Sorento among category winners, the BMW Z4 taking the premium roadster category and the highest overall score of any vehicle, the Chevrolet Volt continuing to gather silverware in the Special Category, nabbing the second-highest score of all and representative of "nearly perfect innovation," and Chrysler and Dodge being most improved.
Check out the press release below for your day's dose of jargon and all the winners.
