1972 Volkswagen Squareback Kasan Red Auto Gas Heat Lots Of Accessories! on 2040-cars
1972 VW Squareback.
For the good: Car was restored in 2000. New shocks and lots of mechanicals were replaced at same time like rotors, calipers, steering box, shocks, etc. Body was stripped to bare metal and received new outer lower rockers, POR'ed, and repainted in original single stage. There are some chips and a few scratches, but probably nothing that can't be polished out since it's single stage. All new rubber was installed as well as a a new headliner and new carpet. Transmission was rebuilt and used engine was put in after previous engine failed. We had it fitted with dual weber carbs. Generator was just replaced recently, as the original died from running the gas heat all the time. Tires were replaced less than 500 miles ago as well. Car is fitted with a sony cd changer, but with original radio and upgraded single center speaker. All vinyl is otherwise original and in excellent condition. VDO guages for oil temp, pressure, and cylinder head temp are all functional. For the bad: I'm taking this to the extreme - I don't want anyone to be unhappy. It's a great driver and with a little work, can be a show car. Car suffered from being driven lots and also from being stored outdoors for many years seeing rain and snow. Car has some rust in the front tire wells down where the pan meets the body. Pan also had some rust holes in the rear battery area so has some so-so repairs there. No spare tire or spare tire well. Gas heat pump sometimes doesn't want to run from lack of use. Takes a bit of priming to get it to work. Bumper and bumper overriders have some corrosion - bumpers were re-chromed and NOS overriders installed, but they did not age well. Engine leaks oil - we will have it serviced prior to pickup with fresh oil. Wiring is functional, but not pretty. Air intake grills on rear fenders have some bubbling and probably need refinishing at some point. No rear seat belts. Odometer does not work. Lots of upgrades: Factory clock delete Factory coco mats (a little UV fading) Factory rear mud flaps Factory parcel tray Factory gas heater NOS dash (now starting to crack a little) NOS gas cap flap rubber NOS driver's side VW blind spot mirror Nardi steering wheel (cannot tell if this is repro or original - it is very nice quality regardless) Original EMPI wheels European tail lenses Used rare/vintage Hella driving lights - make sure you see everything at night! Similar to those used on Porsche 356s. CB performance rear disc brake conversion Electric fuel pump I used to drive this car all the time, it just hasn't been drive in the last two years much, so time to sell. On Feb-14-14 at 04:00:04 PST, seller added the following information:To the winner of the Squareback, we will also extend 20% off any purchase of in stock items from LN Engineering or the Type 4 Store for a period of 3 months to the purchaser of this vehicle, just in case there are any items he or she would like to purchase from us. |

Volkswagen Passat gets Wolfsburg Edition, priced from $23,495*
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Volkswagen has just announced a new Passat Wolfsburg Edition, which slots between the base S and mid-grade SE trims in terms of content and price. The automaker has not released any official photos of the car as of this writing (aside from the badge shot you see here, of course), but the Wolfsburg Passat will be visually set apart from the rest by a unique set of 16-inch alloy wheels.
The big host of upgrades for the Wolfsburg Edition are found inside, where buyers will enjoy standard amenities like leatherette seats (with bun-warmers on the front chairs), a power driver's seat, satellite radio and a media interface with iPod connectivity. Of course, this comes on top of the already standard Passat features like Bluetooth and auto on/off headlamps. The Wolfsburg Passat will only be available with the 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission.
Look for the 2013 Wolfsburg Edition Passat to hit dealerships in the very near future, priced from $23,495, *not including $795 for destination. Have a look below for Volkswagen's official press blast.

Volkswagen Caddy hauls its cute self into Geneva
Wed, Mar 4 2015Here in the States, we have a small but growing segment of little people-and-stuff-carriers, including new things like the Ford Transit Connect, Nissan NV200, Ram ProMaster City, and so on. But in the Old Country, these little guys are everywhere, and hardly a new concept. One of Europe's best in this segment – the Volkswagen Caddy – has been given a thorough refresh, combining all of the great-to-drive characteristics of a Golf with the functionality of a Touran van. Buyers can choose between four different versions of the 2.0-liter diesel inline-four, or three gasoline engines in 1.0-, 1.2-, and 1.4-liter displacements. There's even a natural gas version. And with its Golf roots, your author is, shall we say, really, really interested in a GTI version of this little cutie. The Caddy you're seeing here is, obviously, a passenger van configuration with windows abound. Buyers can also opt for a panel van variant, for more secretive load-hauling. Have a look at the updated Caddy in the images above, and read all about it in the release below. The new Caddy – always the best choice – world premiere for the fourth generation of the best-seller - Entry-level price reduced due to new versions - Emissions and fuel consumption reduced by new EU6 engines - Safety increased by new driver assistance systems - Design refined with clear edge Hannover/ Poznan, 04 February 2015: Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles is showing the fourth generation of the hugely popular Caddy for the first time. Around 1.5 million of the award-winning previous generation were sold worldwide during its eleven years in production. A success that the new Caddy is intended to continue because the urban delivery van and its privately used brother have been enhanced and refined in every area. In Germany, prices for the new Caddy start at ˆ 14,785.00 (net, panel van) and ˆ 15,330.00 net (ˆ 18,242.70 gross, as Conceptline, replacing the previously familiar Startline), each with the 62 kW TSI entry-level engine and thus, when adjusted for feature content, are even below the level of the predecessor model. The drive systems use state-of-the-art technology, with the Caddy's new engines providing maximum efficiency and compliance with the EU6 emissions standard. The basis for the four TDI diesel versions is always a two-litre four cylinder engine. Their performance ranges from 55 kW / 75 h.p. to the top engine with 110 kW / 150 h.p..
