See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Brake lights are not working. All other lights work. A Mechanic told me because the other lights work that the brake light switch needs to be replaced. Beetle could use a tune up. The beetle has been parked in my garage for 5 years and only driven during the summer on nice days and for car shows. I put a half tank of gas in it but, I think there is still old fuel in it. There is a small surface scratch on the right side just in front of the rear fender. It is about an inch long and just on the surface. It is so small that I could not get a picture of it. The seats are all in good shape but do have some small stains. Where the header and exhaust exit out the right rear, the rear panel gets hot and I can see the paint starting to bubble. It is not peeling but you can see when the exhaust is hot that the paint lifts upward. It is a spot the size of a silver dollar. If I were to keep it, I would route the exhaust out the rear center. The car is over 40 years old so it is not perfect."

You are bidding on my wife's 1969 VW Beetle coupe. I bought it from a Marine Officer who said it spent most of its life in Arizona before he transferred to North Carolina. Solid floor pans and all around solid car. I had the beetle painted about 5 years ago which cost me about $2,000.00. I painted it for my wife and it is called Hawaiian Hibiscus Red. It looks like a dark candy apple red. I replaced chrome including chrome running boards. Headliner is in great shape. The dash pad is new and replaced a couple years ago. The wheels are chrome VW rims with VW moon caps. Tires are still like new. The odometer reads 20,000 so, I think it is 120,000 miles. The Marine Officer said he rebuilt the engine when he bought it in 2001. I bought this car with the intent to do a ground up restoration for my wife. Due to military deployments the beetle sat in the garage most of the time and I just do not have the time to devote to it. I want it to go to someone that will enjoy a classic VW.   

Brake lights are not working. All other lights work. A Mechanic told me because the other lights work that the brake light switch needs to be replaced. Beetle could use a tune up. This beetle is 44 years old and does drip a few drops of oil after running but, does not leak constantly. The beetle has been parked in my garage for over 5 years and only driven during the summer on nice days and for car shows. I put a half tank of gas in it recently but, I think there is still old fuel in it. There is a small surface scratch on the right side just in front of the right rear fender. It is about an inch long and just on the surface. It is so small that I could not get a picture of it. Drivers door could use some adjusting. It is a little hard to close. The seats are all in good shape with no rips but, do have some small stains. Where the header and exhaust exit out the right rear, the rear panel gets hot and I can see the paint starting to bulge up. It is not peeling but you can see when the exhaust is hot that the paint lifts upward. It is a spot the size of a silver dollar. If I were to keep it, I would route the exhaust out the rear center. The car is over 40 years old so it is not perfect.

I know that I probably forgot something. I do have the VW Beetle listed locally and reserve the right to end this auction at anytime. 

I am happy to answer all your questions.You are welcome to come view the car or have a mechanic inspect it for you. I am available for questions via Ebay email.  I have 100% feed back so, bid with confidence. 

Clear title and I am not looking for any trades. Bidders with 0 feedbacks will be cancelled. A $500.00 deposit (non-refundable) is due after the auction ends. Balance to paid in cash prior to transfer of ownership. 

Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

Europeans get first crack at new Golf Variant wagon

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Just last week, when we brought you news of a new Volkswagen Golf variant out and testing in Europe, we had no idea we were being so literal with out description. For it seems that VW has every intention of calling its new Golf wagon, making its Geneva debut, the "Golf Variant."
Odd/interesting sobriquets taken as read then, there's a lot to like about this new small wagon from VW. The Variant will shed some 232 pounds in this generation, and will come to market with two efficient TDI engines. Volkswagen isn't giving us displacement figures for either yet, but we're told the diesels will come with outputs of 110 and 150 horsepower. The 110-hp TDI BlueMotion Varient will be good for a whopping 71.3 miles per gallon on the European cycle, when mated to the six-speed manual transmission.
The German automaker has brought along an all-wheel-drive 4Motion version of the Gold Variant to bow in Geneva, as well, and a natural gas-burning TGI BlueMotion is said to be "in the pipeline."

Volkswagen and Funny or Die take humorous spin in 2015 Golf

Wed, 10 Sep 2014

Volkswagen is partnering with Target and Funny or Die in a bizarre ad for the latest Golf starring comedian Rob Huebel, probably best known for his work on Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim.
The commercial is titled The Way Too Helpful Neighbor and stars Huebel as the eponymous neighbor. The challenge is for Huebel to help improve his buddy's apartment before the guy meets his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The obvious way to do that is to slide a new Golf through an actual Target in Texas, while simultaneously showcasing the store's goods and the car's features.
The commercial is airing online now and on TBS during breaks in Conan O'Brien's show, with sneak peaks during other programs on the network. Auto advertising is becoming pretty normal for Funny or Die at this point, though, with the site previously partnering with Fiat for several videos. Check out the ad above and see if you think it works. Scroll down for VW's announcement.

Volkswagen Routan dead, pour out a sippy cup for your little homies

Thu, 28 Mar 2013

America's minivan wolfpack has just gotten smaller by one. According to Automotive News, Volkswagen officials have confirmed what we've suspected for some time - the Routan is dead. Essentially a lightly reworked version of the Dodge Grand Caravan, the Routan actually hasn't been rolling off of Chrysler's Windsor, Ontario production line at all this year, but VW had yet to confirm its discontinuation. However, Jonathan Browning, CEO of VW America, has reportedly admitted that the Routan is being axed, with remaining units expected to be funneled into corporate functions for "internal purposes."
The move isn't unexpected - the Routan has never been a big seller, with just 57,650 examples moved since sales began in 2008 - peak yearly sales totaled under 16,000 units, and that was back in 2010. And while many have talked of the minivan segment shrinking, Automotive News points out that the segment actually grew 14 percent last year to 597,118 units, though it should be noted that most segments have been on sales upticks as the US economy chugs out of its recession.
So, is volume-crazy Volkswagen prepared to pass on large family vehicle sales? Probably not - the German automaker has signaled that it plans to build a three-row crossover in North America soon, and we wouldn't be surprised if it looks an awful lot like the Crossblue Concept from January's Detroit Auto Show - minus the fancy plug-in diesel powertrain.
