You are bidding on a 2010 VW Jetta TDI w/ 6 speed manual transmission.  I am the only owner of this car which was purchased 6/23/2010.  Every service has been done by a VW Master Technician including the timing belt which I did at 130K (the timing belt is made of Kevlar and lasts a lot longer than the 100K interval VW recommends). If you are reading this you are probably familiar with the VW TDI cars and know that 163K highway miles is equivalent to about 40K city miles on a diesel.  These diesels would rather run all day on the highway than sit still. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this car and will run great for many more years and easily another 200K+ highway miles as long as you change the oil with the proper oil type and change the fuel filter every 10K. I had this car Maryland inspected in June in order to buy out the lease and it passed easily once I put new tires on it.  I just took a rock to the windshield and I have a brand new windshield getting installed in a few days. I bought out the lease planning on keeping it for a lot longer but I fell in love with the new VW Golf TDI last week and bought one so now I am selling my baby.

The interior is almost like a brand new car.  Aside from minor wear on the steering wheel and shift knob you can barely tell it was used.  I spend a lot of time in this car for work and I always kept it clean and treated it well.  This car has a touch screen stereo with a 6-disc CD changer, AUX input to play your music through your phone or IPOD, and satellite radio.  The stereos in these cars are notorious for going bad after about 4 years and this one was just replaced about 2 months ago.  The seats are black leatherette and have always been conditioned 4 times per year.  The drivers seat has power recline. I have the carpeted mats as well as the VW all weather rubber mats.  I also have the trunk Cargoliner with the storage blocks to keep your items in place in the truck. I will also throw in the VW roof rack I have for this car ($300 new). 

The exterior of the car is in good shape.  The front end has a typical amount of rock chips for the mileage.  The car was grazed in a parking lot on the left rear which left some very minor scrapes on the wheel well and a few dings on the rear door frame (see pic).  The passenger side was also grazed in a parking lot which left a small dent on the door and minor scrapes around the wheel well (see pic).  The rear bumper has some minor damage where a police officer's foot slipped off of the brake pedal behind me at a stop sign.  He bumped the back at about 2 miles per hour and left a few ripples mostly on the plastic bump strip (see pic).  There are a few other scratches on the car as you would expect with a used car. The car has been garaged kept since new and I wax my cars 4 times per year.  There is no oxidation and the paint is still very shiny. 

You can bid with confidence that this car will be very reliable for a long time. It also has a great safety rating and very reasonable insurance rates. I have this car advertised locally and I reserve the right to cancel the auction early.

Audi buys Ballard fuel cell patents for $80 million

Wed, Feb 11 2015

While some auto companies (e.g., Toyota and Hyundai) are giving away some hydrogen fuel cell patents, others are paying a pretty penny to gain access to the H2 tech. Audi announced today that it has purchased a suite of fuel-cell patent from Ballard Power Systems. The deal between Volkswagen Group and the Canadian fuel cell pioneer is worth over $80 million US. Unsurprisingly, the value of Ballard's stock shot up about a dollar (to $2.61 as of this writing) on the announcement. VW and Ballard will also extend their development agreement, originally scheduled to end in 2017, to March 2019, and possibly another two years after that. Thus far, the deal – which revolves around the "design and manufacture of next-generation fuel cell stacks" for VW's H2 demonstration program – and Ballard says it is a leader in "critical areas of fuel cell product design – including the membrane electrode assembly (MEA), plate and stack components – along with certain testing and integration work." At the LA Auto Show last fall, VW showed off a Golf SportWagen and a Passat with a hydrogen hybrid HyMotion powertrain as well as a Audi A7 Sportback H-Tron Quattro. Audi buys fuel-cell patents from Ballard Power Systems Development agreement with Ballard extended until 2019 Audi's Head of Development Prof. Hackenberg: "The entire VW Group will use these patents." Ingolstadt/Burnaby, February 11, 2015 – AUDI AG has acquired a package of patents relating to fuel-cell technology from Ballard Power Systems Inc. In addition, the Volkswagen Group has extended its cooperation with the Canadian clean energy company until 2019. The purchase of these patents will provide new impetus for the development of fuel-cell drive systems at Audi, VW and the Volkswagen Group. As explained by Prof. Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg, Member of the Board of Management for Technical Development at AUDI AG and responsible for the steering of the development departments of all brands in the VW Group: "Audi is acquiring these strategically important patents for the entire group and will make them available to all the brands. In this way, we are securing crucial expertise that will provide new impetus for the further development of this technology." Ballard Power Systems Inc. is based in Burnaby, Canada, and is one of the world's leading companies in the technology of proton exchange membrane fuel cells.

Volkswagen Golf Wagon leaked ahead of official unveiling

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

Wagons ho! These three images of the upcoming Volkswagen Golf Wagon have leaked online ahead of the car's official debut, which may very well be at the Geneva Motor Show. Looking over the photos doesn't really bring any surprises - after all, this is a VW Golf with a wagon rear end grafted on, or basically what we expect next Jetta SportWagen will be.
We can only share these three images at this time, but fret not, folks. There's little doubt that all the details and images will be flowing from Volkswagen in short order. In the meantime, click on the images above to view them in high resolution.

France may still ban diesel vehicle sales

Sun, Nov 27 2016

Legislators in France are not afraid to bring out the ban hammer when it comes to dirty vehicles. The city of Paris has implemented bans on old clunkers, and the French Prime Minister, Manuel Valls, said in 2014 that diesel cars were a "mistake" and that the government would "progressively undo" the error. Now the national government has said it will not rule out banning sales of new diesel vehicles by Renault and Volkswagen if those companies don't answer more questions about their vehicles' emissions. Environment Minister Segolene Royal said last week that France wants more information about the VW diesel defeat device and Renault's engine software. "We will be asking the consumer fraud investigators and prosecutors to communicate any findings that will enable us to establish whether it's necessary to withdraw sales authorizations," Royal said. Royal has been making waves recently at the COP22 meeting in Marrakesh, Morocco and said that Donald Trump's environmental policies will be " absolutely catastrophic" and weaken the US' standing in the world. If the US doesn't want to lead on climate change efforts, she said, "China can take the place of the United States." She has also been involved in a controversy at home over votes that her staff made to allow higher emissions level from vehicles.
