2001 VW PASSAT 1.8T! 

THIS CAR IS BEING SOLD NO RESERVE! THE TOP BIDDER TAKES THIS CAR!

 

This vehicle is the 2001 1/2 Volkswagen Passat GLS 1.8 Turbo.  The car runs beautifully and has far lower miles than is typical for these cars.  This car has leather interior, heated seats, power sunroof and an upgraded sound system with auxiliary input for your personal music device. This car comes with the valet key. 

Car and Driver wrote about this vehicle "The familiar 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder makes 20 more horsepower, thanks to increased turbo boost (10.2 psi rather than 8.4). That additional power combined with the shorter (numerically higher) gears for first through third in the standard five-speed manual is good for a half-second drop in the Passat GLS's 0-to-60 time. Our test car, equipped with the five-speed, hit 60 mph in 7.5 seconds. That bests four-cylinder mid-size competitors by two to three seconds and is roughly equal to competitors with V-6s and automatic powertrains. This despite a weight gain of about 150 pounds to a still-reasonable-for-the-class 3238.

Torque steer is nonexistent. Chalk one up for the Audi-sourced multilink front suspension.

More important--in the world outside the test track--is the 11 more pound-feet of torque the higher-boost turbo provides. Before the turbo starts spinning in earnest, the little 1.8-liter has its work cut out for it. Once the turbo segues into the power-delivery business, though, the GLS moves out with authority. So much so, in fact, that we wonder why anyone would pay the extra money for the optional 190-hp, 2.8-liter V-6.

Also largely unchanged is the interior, which is fine by us. The '98 Passat set a new standard in the segment for materials quality and lovely little touches such as soft-return grab handles and heated seats.

There are more baby steps along the upmarket trek for the interior. VW replaced the utterly useless, flimsy swing-out cup holders for two proper holes in the new center console. (Rejoice!) There are new bezels around the four analog gauges. They are, of course, shiny. Otherwise, the interior remains the same as always, with supportive seats, an elegant design, and roomy rear quarters. And all 20011/2 Passats come with a standard side-curtain airbag system.

 

Expect normal wear and tear for the year and mileage. Don't miss out; please feel free to email or call us with any questions you might have 954-319-6363. We are here to help and want you to bid with confidence. As always we welcome pre end of auction inspections, and remember that this is a used vehicle and to expect to always have to do something to your new car. Also if you would like a picture of something specific feel free to ask.

You are entering into a legal and binding contract to purchase this vehicle described above. Winning bidder MUST contact us within 24 hours of auction end, and make arrangements for FULL payment at that time. Pickup times must be scheduled with 72 hours notice, due to getting the vehicles fully detailed, paperwork ready, etc.

If no contact is made within 48 hours we reserve the right to re-list the vehicle, sell it to the next high bidder, or sell it otherwise. Appropriate feedback will be left at the end of all transactions! There is a $199 dealer services fee added to all transactions.

Buyer is responsible for pickup or shipment of this vehicle within 14 days of auction end and PAYS ALL SHIPPING COSTS. All vehicles not picked up after 14 days from the close of auction will be subjected to a $20.00 per day storage fee, unless satisfactory prior arrangements are made and full payment has been received. We works with several local and national auto transport shipping companies. If you need shipping you may contact us for a listing of quality and reliable transporters. You may also locate shippers by doing a web search for “auto shippers”.

We guaranty that this unit comes with a clean and lien free title.

All vehicles are sold "AS-IS, WHERE-IS." No warranty is expressed, written or implied from the seller whatsoever; however, there may be a manufacturers’ factory warranty remaining on the vehicle. The seller shall not be responsible for the correct description, authenticity, genuineness, or defects herein, and makes no warranty in connection therewith. No allowance or set aside will be made on account of any incorrectness, imperfection, defect or damage. Any descriptions or representations are for identification purposes only and are not to be construed as a warranty of any type. It is the responsibility of the buyer to have thoroughly inspected the vehicle, and to have satisfied himself as to the condition and value of this vehicle and to bid based upon that judgment solely.

Pre-sale inspections are not only welcome, but are recommended and encouraged. We will make every available effort to accommodate a time for either you or a certified mechanic of your choice to inspect this vehicle at our location. Please have all inspections done prior to bidding. Inspections companies are listed on our page and easily found on the web as well as within eBay. The seller shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects associated with this vehicle at the buyer's request prior to the close of sale. Seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle. Please remember the age of the unit that you are purchasing and expect to spend for repairs accordingly.

If you have any questions about this vehicle - please ASK. Never assume anything not listed is included. We reserve the right to end this listing if the vehicle is no longer available for sale and to notify bidders and cancel this auction at any time. Additionally, we reserve the right to cancel bids placed from those with excessive negative feedbacks or zero feedbacks.

PLEASE be realistic and realize that these are used vehicles and although we only buy the cleanest cars available, a nick or chip is always possible. All used cars including this one may have dings, nicks and chips, scratches and any other marks that are associated with use consistent with the age and mileage of the vehicle. Obviously, a car that is 10 years old will show more wear and have more flaws than one that is only 2 years old. Classic cars will show difference in their condition based on whether original or restored expect normal wear and tear. Most cars are sold at wholesale prices, many, way below book prices. Therefore, there is minimum profit, especially on "no reserve" auctions. As such, we cannot afford to warranty the vehicle as if you had purchased it for full list price. We strongly recommend that all buyers purchase the Extended Service Warranty (available on most cars). This will help defray the cost of mechanical repairs should any become necessary in the future. 

Remember some of these cars are near a decade old and they may be new to you, but that does not change the fact that they are used vehicles and repairs may be needed at any time regardless of how short a time period you have owned the car. All basic maintenance should be done to start off from scratch with your new vehicle we will check all fluids. While we try to service any known defects it is always possible for any used vehicles to need service or repairs in the first days or weeks of ownership; NOT likely, but possible! Since these vehicles are used, please remember that books, extra keys, remote entry keys, CD cartridges, etc....do not always remain with the vehicle throughout their life. We will not be responsible for these minor accessories. These items are all replaceable at any local Factory Dealer or here on eBay for a few dollars.

Placing your bid on this auction constitutes your agreement and acceptance of these terms and conditions. In addition, all non paying bidders will be held liable for a $500.00 re-listing fee that, if not paid, WILL be filed with all 3 major credit bureaus.

ONLY BID WHAT YOU ARE WILLING TO PAY. IF A RESERVE IS PLACED AND NOT MET, WE MAY CONTACT THE NEXT HIGHEST BIDDER TO OFFER A SECOND CHANCE OPTION.

Peugeot will prove it doesn't offer cheater diesels

Thu, Oct 29 2015

Our diesels are clean, really. That's the message from French automaker PSA/Peugeot-Citroen as it plans to go on the offensive in response to Volkswagen's diesel-emissions scandal. PSA will go out of its way to prove its diesels are as clean as advertised. The company is looking at disclosing "real-world" fuel-economy statistics as soon as next spring and will use an independent entity to vet the numbers, Automotive News Europe says, citing comments that PSA/Peugeot-Citroen financial chief Jean-Baptiste de Chatillon made to reporters this week. Such efforts may be vital, since roughly two-thirds of the vehicles Peugeot-Citroen sells in Europe are powered by a diesel engine. Last month, VW admitted that as many as 11 million of its diesel-powered vehicles were programmed with software designed to cheat emissions-testing systems. The news shook up the industry, especially companies that sell a good chunk of diesels. The EU itself may start instituting "real world" fuel-economy and emissions testing as soon as 2017. French regulators have said they may eliminate diesel-fuel subsidies that currently make diesel fuel cheaper to customers than gas. That adjustment may occur as soon as next year, since it's been pushed up in response to the VW scandal. Peugeot-Citron continues to reiterate that it has never installed software that was designed to cheat emissions-testing systems. Additionally, the automaker was more than a decade ahead of European Union mandates for engine components designed to cut soot emissions, so the company is hoping its track record makes a difference. It wants to be perfectly clear about that.

Volkswagen says goodbye to Eos, Routan in 2015 updates

Wed, Jul 23 2014

Usually automakers announce changes to their lineup individually on a vehicle-by-vehicle basis, but sometimes it all comes at once – especially when the changes are ones we either expected or might not otherwise notice. That's the path Volkswagen has gone with changes to its US lineup for 2015. The biggest change is what we already knew: that the new Golf arrives for the 2015 model year, bringing with it the new GTI, Golf R, e-Golf and Golf SportWagen (to replace the previous Jetta wagon). But there are some new details as well. For starters, Volkswagen has finally confirmed that both the Eos and the Routan – both long rumored to be on their way out – will be exiting this year. The Eos hardtop convertible, pictured above, will linger for one last year, its Sport trim replaced by a new Final Edition with 18-inch wheels, two-tone leather interior and enhanced equipment. Meanwhile the Routan, which hasn't actually been built in over a year, is finally dead, as VW confirms it has dropped the Chrysler-built minivan from its lineup for 2015 altogether. The German automaker has also confirmed that the Touareg is getting a facelift early in the new year, which we expect will closely follow the revisions revealed a few months ago ahead of the Beijing Motor Show. Finally VW has announced an upgrade to its 2.0-liter TDI. Fitted to the Golf, Jetta, Passat and Beetle, the updated diesel gets 10 more horsepower with output now up to 150 hp and 236 pound-feet of torque. Scope out the full list of announcements in the press release below. MODEL YEAR 2015: NEW GOLF FAMILY, REDESIGNED JETTA, AND NEW TDI® CLEAN DIESEL ENGINE HEAD THE CHANGES Jul 22, 2014 In a busy year, Volkswagen will also add a new Golf SportWagen, an all-new Golf R, a redesigned Touareg SUV, and the company's first U.S.-market EV, the e-Golf - All-new Golf is bigger, lighter, and more fuel-efficient than the previous model, seats five, and has a larger trunk than any midsize sedan - New Golf GTI has 210-horsepower engine, with improved fuel efficiency and performance - e-Golf is Volkswagen's first full Battery Electric Vehicle for sale in the U.S.

Take a listen to the Volkswagen ID 3 and Koenigsegg Jesko

Sun, Dec 15 2019

What could better demonstrate our diametric vehicular future than sound clips of the Volkswagen ID 3 and the Koenigsegg Jesko? Battery-electric vehicles don't make enough noise on their own, so VW partnered with composer Leslie Mandoki for the legally-mandated Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS) that warns pedestrians and cyclists of the EV's presence. Mandoki — a German-Hungarian who once played drums in a Euro disco band called Dschinghis Khan — was asked to come up with a sound for the ID 3 that VW said "defines its identity," "radiates safety and the promise of effortless mobility," and that "must also impress with its unique character." The definition of the ID 3's single-motor, 201-horsepower character is this: Occupants and people around the hatch can hear the sound as the car accelerates to 18.6 mph, and when reversing. At higher speeds, the sound of wind resistance and tire noise takes over. As our library of AVAS tones grows, it's clear that EVs will provide a soundscape as varied as that of internal combustion engines. Here, for instance, is the industrial thrum used as the Karma Revero GT's pedestrian warning: And here is the sci-fi soaring from the BMW Vision M Next, as composed by Hans Zimmer: At the other end of the aural chamber, we have the Koenigsegg Jesko. In this case, the composer is a 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 running on a bio-ethanol E85 blend that's almost suitable for IndyCar, powering the engine up to 1,600 horsepower. Output on pump gas will be 'only' 1,281 hp. The Swedish automaker released a clip of the exhaust note of a car in progress inside the Angelhom factory. Here's what we can look forward to: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. All these sounds have a place at the table, even if we'd prefer Karma booked some time with a producer and an Autotune session. To paraphrase Sesame Street, though, one of these sounds is definitely not like the other.
