Hello! Up for sale is my 2013 VW Passat SE TDI. I am the original owner and purchased it in January of 2013 as my primary driver. I selected the Passat TDI based upon previous experience with a Jetta TDI I owned. The build quality and fuel efficiency of the TDI models is legendary. In this Passat, I have seen Hwy mileage as high as 46mpg and a minimum of 35mpg it heavy stop and go city driving. I average about 700 miles per tank. Even with the higher price of diesel over gasoline, you will see a lower cost per mile than the Accord, Maxima, Camry, or any other car in its class. The 2 liter Engine provides 140hp and 236 lbs-ft of torque, which results in a surprisingly quick ride. You will have no trouble passing traffic when needed. The added option of the 18” wheels and the 6 speed DSG transmission make for a sporty, well handling package. I drove the Blue Ridge Parkway in last fall and was very surprised by the Passat’s ability to carve the curves. It offers a driving experience that none of its competitors can match.

It currently has 25,111 miles on it and has only ever been serviced by the dealer I purchased it from, Owens Murphy VW in Little Rock. The next service, due at 30,000 miles, is included with the car. It has been garage kept, and regularly detailed. There are no major defects, only the two scratches that are shown in the pictures. The one on the passenger door happened when my mountain bike fell over in the garage, and the one under the left headlight occurred when a piece of wood fell off the back of an 18 wheeler and bounced off the roadway. The car has never been involved in an accident in any capacity and is in excellent condition aside from the aforementioned blemishes. It was last detailed a few months ago and has been in the garage since then, as I have been driving another vehicle. I drive it at least once a week to keep the battery charged and ready to go. I have decided to sell it for two reasons. I am working on getting back down to one vehicle before my next job move, and I got a Siberian Husky and refuse to let her ride in it for fear of damaging the interior. The car just does not suit my life anymore.

The windows were tinted by Premier Tints with their top level Ceramic tint. It has 15% on the rear window, 25% on the side windows, and 50% on the front window. I always have my cars tinted all the way around as it makes the biggest difference for driver comfort and heat control. This tint job was a $390 addition to the car and is worth the money.

The factory options over the standard SE trim level includes:

· 18” alloy wheels with all-season tires
· V-Tex Leatherette seats
· Sirius XM satellite radio
· Bluetooth input
· Aux input
· Media Device Interface (MDI) with iPod input/control
· Power tilt & Sliding Sunroof w/Sun-screen
· Radio Navigation system RNS-315 w/color touchscreen

The car is located in the Little Rock area, and is available for viewing if you wish. Please give me some notice and I will do my best to accommodate your time line. I have it financed, so the title can only be delivered after making payoff and clearing the loan. Buyer is responsible for pick up, but I will help with reasonable circumstances. Please do not hesitate to send questions and offers my way at Five Zero One, Seven Seven Two, Six One Zero Nine.

Thank you for your time.

VW builds 250,000th Passat in Chattanooga in just two years

Sun, 26 May 2013

It hasn't been without incident or union organizing drive, but the Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, TN has built its 250,000 Passat in just a little over two years. The Night Blue Passat TDI with black leather has come just two years and five weeks after the first customer car came off the line on April 18, 2011.
In the last year the plant operated at the 150,000-unit capacity that it was intended for, but the downturn in Passat sales and subsequent worker layoffs mean it will be a challenge to repeat the feat. The plant does have the world's largest solar park, though, and you can't take that away from them.
You'll find the official hand-clapping in the press release below.

Volkswagen Tiguan and Touareg take the R-Line

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Volkswagen's Detroit Auto Show presence is big on utility this year, with the CrossBlue three-row concept vehicle occupying the lion's share of the limelight, both literally and figuratively. But that isn't stopping Volkswagen from lavishing attention on its already established crossover and sport utility vehicles with new R-Line derivatives. The Tiguan and its big brother Touareg are getting a host of look-faster items to increase their sporting appeal.
On the outside, the Tiguan R-Line receives handsome 19-inch alloys peering out from beneath fender extensions, premium lighting (bi-Xenon headlamps with LED daytime running lamps), along with matching side skirts and a liftgate spoiler. On the inside, sportier accommodations include aluminum trim and a flat-bottom steering wheel with paddle shifters. As with other R-Line models, there are no powertrain modifications to go with the more aggressive visuals (that being the province of R standalone performance models like the R32), though the suspension has been firmed up an unspecified amount. The Tiguan R-Line will be available in front- or all-wheel drive configuration.

Volkswagen e-Co-Motion concept poised for delivery to Geneva

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

With Nissan getting ready to launch the e-NV200, it appears Volkswagen is looking to go after the same zero-emission commercial vehicle market with the all-electric 2013 e-Co-Motion Concept. Debuting next week at the Geneva Motor Show, the e-Co-Motion Concept might be small in size, but VW says it has cargo and payload capacities that should be perfect for small businesses.
Measuring 179 inches long, 75 inches wide and 77 inches tall, the e-Co-Motion Concept has about the same footprint as the current Golf, and it has a cargo capacity of 162 cubic feet and a maximum payload of more than 1,700 pounds. There isn't too much information on the e-Co-Motion just yet - such as what electric components and platform are used - but the press release posted below states while the concept is shown as a cargo van, future body styles could include a passenger wagon or a refrigerated box van.
