  We understand that buying a vehicle online can sometimes leave you un-easy. We are aware that there are other dealers online that do not fully describe the vehicles listed. They might leave important information out, or not have a thorough description of that item.

We do not want to waste anyone’s time, and definitely don’t want to mislead you. This is why we inform you of EVERYTHING we know, and provide you with detailed descriptions and conditions of the item for sale.

Up for NO RESERVE is a 2006 Volkswagen Passat Value Edition! This is a great sedan known for safety and reliability; also this German 2.0 Turbo can receive 32 MPH Highway and 23 city! THE HIGHEST BID WINS THE VEHICLE!

CARFAX appraises this vehicle $1120 over retail value! KBB.com appraises this vehicle for just over $6,000. This Maryland 1 owner vehicle has been serviced very well and no damage/accidents are recorded. Truly this particular Passat is worth over $7,000!

INTERIOR: The seats and upholstery are all in great shape, the whole vehicle looks barely used. The black leather all looks great. The radio sounds great with no blown speakers. On the driver side door there is a small, clean tear about an inch wide at the top. Everything seems to be in working order, there is some wear on some buttons and contact points. For some reason this is very common for all Volkswagens. The heat works great along with the hot heated seats. The sunroof works great also. The A/C blows hard and cold.

EXTERIOR: The body is in great shape. As you can see in the pictures, there are no major dents or dings. The protective top coat is still very smooth with no fading. The tires have a lot of tread left on them and will not need replacing anytime soon. I did not see any rust on the vehicle.

MOTOR/HANDLING: The key is really neat! The Passat starts right up with no issues and idles with no smoke or sounds, the turbo is quiet. The gears shift smooth and the acceleration is just how a turbo engine should be. The brakes feel good with no grinding or wobble. The check engine light is on and so is the airbag light, we do not know why. There was also a low tire pressure light on; the tires were low when taking the pictures. This vehicle runs and drives like any 06 Passat should.  The suspension is quiet and the powered steering is very smooth.

All in all, this is a great vehicle for anyone. If you need a second car, or if you need something safe and efficient for your first time driver, we got you covered! Don’t pass this opportunity trying to find a better deal, its right in front of you! There are hundreds of people looking for the same thing you are. I am accepting all reasonable offers, just message me. Thank you for looking, GOOD LUCK!

German carmakers recall 630,000 diesel vehicles in Europe

Fri, Apr 22 2016

Mercedes, Opel, Porsche, and Volkswagen will recall over 630,000 cars in Europe, according to reports Friday. No diesel car has been able to get under the legal emissions limit in real-world driving, according to a German government investigation. While only Volkswagen Group has been using a specific "defeat device", other carmakers have been playing with their exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) systems. Depending of the manufacturer, the systems have been cut off at a certain temperature. In a specific test cycle the systems operate to fulfill the legal requirements, but in everyday use the limits are exceeded. According to the magazine Der Spiegel, the supplier Bosch is behind this programming and has provided it to all German automakers. The mentioned carmakers have announced recalls, but many other manufacturers are also mentioned by name in the report, including Alfa Romeo, Chevrolet, Dacia, Fiat, Ford, Hyundai, Jaguar, Jeep, Land Rover, Nissan, Renault, and Suzuki. PSA Group, which produces Peugeot, Citroen, and DS cars, declared yesterday that its offices were raided following an emissions investigation.

Volkswagen lays off 500 Chattanooga workers

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

The redesigned Volkswagen Passat has been a decent seller since its debut in 2011, but sales have apparently dropped off enough that the automaker is trimming some of the employees from its Chattanooga, TN assembly plant. According to Automotive News, Volkswagen will be cutting shifts and laying off 500 contracted workers in response to slowing sales.
Currently, the plant has three teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Saturday, but starting May 13, this will be reduced down to two teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Thursday. This will be done to reduce dealer inventory (the article says that VW dealers, on average, have a 97-day supply of Passats) and production capacity (currently running at an annual pace of 170,000 units, which is more than the 150,000 annual units the plant was planned to produce).
This, of course, isn't saying that the Passat has been a failure since VW added 200 full-time employees to the plant in February 2012 to keep up with increased demand. The AN article says that automakers frequently overstaff plants during the launch of a new product - or in this case, a new product and a new plant - but eventually reduce the workers as things run smoother and more efficiently.

Recharge Wrap-up: BYD sales surge, new Mazda MX-5, plug-in VW Passat

Mon, Jul 7 2014

BYD has enjoyed a tremendous leap in sales since last year, according to Want China Times. Sales from January to April were ten times that of the same period last year, with much of the credit going to government subsidies for clean cars. BYD claims, though, that battery production is limiting the number of vehicles it sells, and that by increasing that production capacity, it will see even more success. BYD's Qin plug-in hybrid, introduced in December, has already sold 4,500 units with another 8,000 orders already placed. Read more here. Mazda will reveal the fourth generation of its MX-5 roadster in September. To celebrate the car's 25th anniversary, the all-new two-seat convertible will debut during simultaneous private events in Spain, Japan and the US on September 3 and 4. Furthermore, the new Miata will be the center of a more public event in Barcelona on September 6. For fans in the US, Mazda will hold a Miatas at Mazda Raceway event from September 5 to 7. The 2016 MX-5 promises to continue to offer a lightweight, balanced design for fun and efficiency. The new Volkswagen Passat will feature a plug-in hybrid version. Volkswagen confirmed the Passat PHEV for Europe at the model's unveiling at the Volkswagen Design Centre in Potsdam, Germany. The plug-in Passat uses a 154-horsepower TSI engine and an 80-kilowatt electric motor for a total output of 208 horsepower. With a full charge, it can travel up to 31 miles on electricity alone. All versions of the eighth-generation Passat use stop-start and regenerative braking. Read more at Green Car Congress. BBC warns that the costs of charging an electric vehicle in the UK could surpass those of fueling a gasoline engine. Not so fast, says The Green Car Website. While the BBC cites charging services like Charge Master introducing fees for rapid charging making it cost about as much per mile to drive as traditional internal combustion engines. The Green Car Website points out that most people usually charge at home for much less, that paying for rapid charging is still not that expensive and that the BBC article misses the point about EVs, anyway.
