2004 Volkswagen R32 Low Miles Excellent Condition on 2040-cars

Year:2004 Mileage:88431

Charleston, South Carolina, United States

For sale: 2004 VW R32, and easily the nicest one for sale on ebay. 88,420 miles and is only driven once a week to keep the battery charged. Although the car is not stock, it features only minor modifications designed to enhance the driveability of the vehicle. This car has had three owners and was in Colorado until 86,4xx miles so it has no rust or corrosion anywhere on the vehicle. I have a relatively complete service history since new (have previous owner’s records) and all services have been performed on time. Both factory recalls (coil pack, sunroof drain) have been performed on this vehicle.

-          First owner owned vehicle up to 58200 miles and performed the following modifications:

o   K&N filter

o   ECS tuning stubby antenna (won’t get ripped off in car wash. Original included)

o   ECS tuning clear side markers

o   Hawk performance ceramic brake pads (OE stopping quality, no brake dust and very long life)

-          Second owner was a vehicle broker for his side business and owned the car for ~2000 miles

-          I purchased the vehicle at ~60,200 miles in 2011 and performed the following modifications:

o   Carbonio cold air intake with custom AEM Dri-flo filter to avoid MAF fouling (stock intake is included with vehicle)

o   APR tune with stock, 91, 93, and 100 octane tune with security lockout mode. I’ve seen over 30mpg highway average since installing the tune

o   SSR type-c wheels in 18x8.5 with 235/40/18 Dunlop ZII tires. These are a massive performance upgrade over stock, saving over 10 lbs/wheel despite the larger width.

o   Sport Edition F12 wheels in 17x7.5 with 225/45/17 Yokohama ice guard winter tires. The smaller diameter improved winter ride quality.

o   SEAT Cupra R front lip spoiler gives the car a sportier touch.

o   Replaced front bumper undertray panels- no more curb rash!

I have changed the Haldex differential fluid every 15000 miles or less, which is an extremely important maintenance item on these vehicles. In addition, transmission and differential fluid was changed at about 84000 miles with Schaffer gear oil by Metrick Methodz in Fort Collins, CO.

This car has been freshly detailed inside and out (will have ext. detail finished 3/9/14), which will leave it looking showroom-fresh aside from one 3” scuff in the clearcoat behind the driver’s side door. In addition, the cargo area carpet is wrinkled and the hatch door plastic has a few scratches in it. The seats show no signs of wear, even the massive driver’s side bolster- I have always taken great care getting in and out of this thing.

This car is an opportunity to buy an R32 that needs nothing, and if the current market is any indication, should prove to be a good investment that may even gain value with time.

Volkswagen Group sales down 15% in pandemic year, but EV sales up 214%

Wed, Jan 13 2021

FRANKFURT, Germany — German automaker Volkswagen said its global sales fell 15.2% during 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic but showed significant recovery toward the end of the year. The company more than tripled its sales of battery-only vehicles. Global sales for all of Volkswagen's brands amounted to 9.3 million vehicles. The fourth quarter showed a smaller decline of 5.7% and within that quarter the month of December was still further improved, showing a shortfall of only 3.2% from the same period the year before. Volkswagen said Wednesday that sales fell the most in Western Europe, by 21.6%, while China, the company's largest single market, was down 9.1% Sales of battery-only cars jumped 214% to 231,600 from 73,700 across all the company's brands. The company's electric sales leaders included the Volkswagen ID.3 compact, with 56,500, the Audi E-Tron SUV with 47,300, and the high-end Porsche Taycan with 20,000. Volkswagen said that its sales fell by less than the overall market, meaning it had slightly expanded its market share. “The COVID-19 pandemic made 2020 an extremely challenging year,” said group sales chief Christian Dahlheim. “The Volkswagen Group performed well in this environment and strengthened its market position." Volkswagen Group's brands include Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche, SEAT, and Skoda as sell as truck makers MAN and Scania.

European new car sales drop nearly 8% in first half of 2019

Thu, Jul 18 2019

PARIS — European car sales dropped 7.9% in June, led by bigger declines for Nissan, Volvo and Fiat Chrysler (FCA), according to industry data published on Wednesday. Registrations fell to 1.49 million cars last month from 1.62 million a year earlier across the European Union and EFTA countries, the Brussels-based Association of European Carmakers said in a statement. Calendar effects resulted in two fewer sales days in most markets, accentuating the decline. Registrations for the first half closed 3.1% lower, ACEA said. For European carmakers, weakening demand at home compounds the pressure from a sharper contraction in China and emerging markets that may yet bring more profit warnings. NissanÂ’s aging model lineup contributed to a 26.6% June sales slump while Volvo Cars, owned by ChinaÂ’s Geely, saw deliveries tumble 21.7%. Registrations also fell 13.5% last month at FCA, 10.1% at BMW, 9.6% at Volkswagen Group and 8.2% for both Mercedes parent Daimler and FranceÂ’s PSA Group. The Peugeot makerÂ’s domestic rival Renault suffered less, posting a 3.9% decline. By the Numbers BMW Chrysler Fiat Nissan Volkswagen Volvo Peugeot Renault
