Year:2005 Mileage:171000
Location:

Saint-Edouard-de-Napierville, Quebec, Canada

Saint-Edouard-de-Napierville, Quebec, Canada

Up for sale here we have a Passat TDI 2005, 2.0L Direct Injection Diesel with 5 speed automatic transmission. It currently has 171000 miles or 273000km. Mechanically there is nothing wrong with the car, everything functions as intended with no exceptions including the A/C. I personally replaced the Timing belt, all idlers and water pump on the car so it is good for another 60k miles. Oil change has been done with proper 5w40 Synthetic oil from Germany. The alternator is very recent, one of the CV axles as well. The brakes have more than 80% life left, tires are also ok for another year or so. The transmission had also some issues which were corrected, i had the valve body rebuilt (bill can be provided ~800$) and I replaced the B clutch assembly (reverse gear) which is prone to failure. The transmission has also been cleaned up internally and new oil and filter put in. I did most of the repairs myself, I do all maintenance on my personal cars with meticulous care and attention to detail. The Passat also comes with a small trailer hitch and wiring already installed.

The interior is clean no stains, or tears in the leather, it is a non-smoker car, carpets are also very clean.

The only few imperfections on the car are:
-Small bubbled paint spot on driver's side door under trim
-Piece of trim missing on rear left door and signs of bubbled paint under trim
-Tiny spot of bubbled paint on rear left fender arch
-Front bumper has a parking lot scratch
-Few tiny stone chip locations on top of windscreen, they have been touched up with same color paint to prevent rust.


Note: These cars carry a 12 year unlimited mileage anti-corrosion warranty, it is highly likely the rust issues will be covered. If you want more information please contact your local VW dealer.

The winning bidder also will get a set of summer brand new original Schwaben carpets and the already in car Monster type winter mats. I will also include a set of winter tires made by Nokian in Finland (75% life left), mounted on 15" steel rims. 

The car is located in Quebec, Canada at very close proximity to the Champlain NY border.
It can be exported, the same car was sold in the USA as well, but as usual please check with local DMV and US Customs what this involves.

If you are looking for a very comfortable, quiet, large and ECONOMIC car then look no further as there is no car that will compare with the fuel economy of TDI Diesels. Also rest assured that with proper maintenance these cars do not lose their value as compared to their gasoline counterparts.

I have a local listing for this car as well, and reserve the right to end this auction at any time.

If you have any questions please ask before bidding. Serious bidders only.

VW looking to MAN up, ditch Mercedes van deal

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

Unlike the US, the commercial truck market throughout the rest of the world is chocked full of competitors from many different automakers. Since 2006, Volkswagen has had a fullsize van called the Crafter that was a result of a partnership with Daimler AG and based on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. This partnership is supposed to last through 2016, but Reuters is reporting that VW might be looking to end its relationship with Daimler and create its own van in cooperation with German truck and bus maker MAN.
The article says that VW AG has more than a 75-percent stake in MAN, which would essentially be keeping the new commercial vehicle in-house. Even if VW bolts, Daimler still has a deal worked out in the commercial truck industry between its subsidiary Mitsubishi Fuso and Renault-Nissan to supply the other with different trucks.

Translogic 164: Driving the fuel cell vehicles of the 2014 LA Auto Show

Wed, Nov 26 2014

The LA Auto Show is known for its environmentally friendly vehicle debuts. At last year's show, hydrogen fuel cell concepts from Honda and Toyota joined a lease-ready Hyundai Tucson FCEV to cast a green hue over the convention center. This year, automakers took us a step closer to a fuel cell future by offering drives of their hydrogen-electric hybrids. Translogic host Jonathon Buckley takes a ride in the Toyota Mirai, which is headed for production in 2016. He follows that with a spin in the Volkswagen Passat HyMotion and the Audi A7 Sportback h-tron quattro concept. Which of these fuel cell vehicles holds the most promise? Tune in to find out.

Volkswagen Group names Paefgen head of classics program

Tue, 04 Oct 2011

You may remember the name Franz-Josef Paefgen. Until recently, the German engineer and executive was head of both Bentley and Bugatti. Before that he was chief executive of Audi, after working for several years at Ford. He technically "retired" earlier this year, but like the cars he helped create, an executive like Paefgen could never really retire. So it should come as little surprise that the Volkswagen Group has named Dr. Paefgen head of its Classic program.
In his new capacity, Paefgen will oversee the historic automobile activities of the entire VW Group, including those of Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda, Audi, Lamborghini, and of course Bentley and Bugatti. It strikes us as a suitable semi-retirement for the man responsible in no small part for the Bugatti Veyron and Bentley Mulsanne, to name just two, and who was decorated in 2006 by the ACO as the "Spirit of Le Mans" for his contribution to endurance racing. Read the official announcement after the break.
