Great Find!! Well taken care of VW passat. Really lover this car, but need the utility of a truck. Although the miles are relatively high, this car is in great shape. I have a long commute and these are all highway miles. Car has been very well maintained. Mobil 1 since I've had it at 36K. I'm the second owner. I went through this car at 100K miles and did fuel filter, front struts, rear shocks, timing belt, water pump, timing belt tensioner, temp sensor and belts. Just recently did the radiator hoses at 149K. Everything works, car drives excellent. Heated seats, sunroof and very clean interior. I bought the set of W8 wheels about 5 years ago and it really makes the car look sharp. At that time I also added the rear spoiler, which enhances the look even more.  I love the W8 look, but the advantage of an average of 30mpg with the 1.8L turbo. 


Even at 10yrs old, I get comments all the time about how nice this car looks.  There is also a full set of snow tires on the stock rims that are on the car now for winter. The snow tires have about 8/32nds left (about 60%) and are good for at least 2 more winters. It drives like a tank with these. The tires on the W8 wheels are ready for replacement in the spring when they get swapped back on. Very little scratches (couple minor ones above drivers side rear wheel well), but barely noticeable. Paint is in really good shape and shines up nice (as seen in the pictures). If I was holding on this this car, the only other thing I would do is to replace the headlight covers (they are a little dull) but those aren't much (like $60) on ebay or other sites. Will ship,but would prefer the convenience of a local sale. Title in hand and clean.

Anti-union group files lawsuit against VW and UAW

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

The fight for unionization at Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN, factory isn't letting up. Yesterday, the National Labor Relations Board decided to allow anti-United Auto Workers employees at the plant the right to defend voting down the measure. Now, a group called the National Right to Work Foundation has filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of five workers against VW and the UAW for allegedly working together to organize.
The group says in a release that it wants "to block further collusion between the company and the United Auto Workers." It alleges that VW forced workers to attend "mandatory pro-union meetings" and prevented managers from opposing. In a rebuttal on its website, the UAW called the claims "baseless" and said its actions were entirely legal.
One possible problem faces the carmaker in regards to the lawsuit. According to the Detroit Free Press, a recent US Court of Appeals ruling found that neutrality agreements like the one the business had with the UAW could be illegal if the company provided "things of value" to the union. The newspaper also claims that VW held a mandatory employee meeting concerning the election, but workers were free to leave during the UAW's presentation.

Tanner Foust checks out his new VW Beetle GRC rally car

Thu, 11 Sep 2014

Racing driver and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust is a very busy guy. After all, he's competing in rounds of both Global Rallycross series and FIA World Rallycross Championship, not to mention his TV duties. However, we probably shouldn't feel too sorry for him, because his job puts him behind the wheel of some truly crazy machinery.
Case in point is his latest ride in Global Rallycross - the Volkswagen Beetle GRC. The German company claims that this all-wheel drive Bug makes around 540 horsepower from its 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and can shoot to 60 in under 2 seconds. Plus, if this video is any indication, this Volkswagen sounds like a machine gun when throwing revs at idle, and it can do some wonderfully easy four-wheel drifts.
Previously, Foust was driving a VW Polo for Andretti Autosport in GRC, but the team unveiled the look of the Beetle GRC at the Chicago Auto Show. Now, Foust is finally getting to show off his new office to the public, and like VW's tagline for the new car claims, it's way hotter than Herbie.

Porsche-Piech buy 10% stake in VW's holding company

Tue, 18 Jun 2013

In August, 2009, as the scuttled merger of Porsche and Volkswagen had gone bad and Porsche was backed up against the ropes, Porsche Automobil Holding SE (PAHSE) relinquished a ten-percent stake in itself to Qatar Holdings as well as options it held on 17 percent of VW shares. The sale meant that, for the first time since the founding of the company 61 years before, an entity outside the Porsche and Piech families had a say in the running of PAHSE.
Buying that ten-percent stake back returns full ownership to the two families, the holding company's sole possession being ownership of 50.7 percent of VW's common shares. The price paid wasn't disclosed, but at market rates the purchase would be worth close to $1.25 billion. Qatar intends to hold onto the 17-percent stake it has in Volkswagen.
