I BOUGHT THIS 4 YEARS AGO AND IT HAS REALLY BEEN A HEAD TURNER. IT WAS JUST BUILT WHEN I BOUGHT IT, FROM THE CHASSIS UP. THE ONLY THING WAS THE WIRING HAD A PROBLEM SO I HAD THE WHOLE THING REWIRED BY A PROFESSIONAL RESTORER. I HAVE ABOUT 8800.00 IN THE BUGGY BUT KNOW I WON'T GET THAT OUT OF IT. I JUST HAD THE VALVES TUNED THIS SUMMER BY A VW MECHANIC. THE CHROME WHEELS ARE IN GREAT SHAPE ALONG WITH THE TIRES WHICH ONLY HAVE ABOUT 3000 MILES ON THEM. AS A MATTER OF FACT THATS ALL THE MILES THE BUGGY HAS ON IT. I JUST DROVE IT AROUND TOWN AND TO THE BEACH ONCE. IT HAS BEEN A VERY DEPENDABLE CAR FOR ME AND I WOULD'NT BE AFRAID TO DRIVE IT ANYWHERE. A LOT OF CARE HAS GONE IN TO THIS ORIGINAL MANX (PAPERWORK TO PROOVE). THE FRONT BUCKET SEATS ADJUST BACK AND FORTH AND LEAN FORWARD. THERE IS ONE SMALL HOLE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT ABOUT THE SIZE OF A PENCIL ERASER. THE CHROME WHEELS HAVE NO RUST AND SHINE LIKE NEW. THE CD PLAYER IS BY SONY AND HAS SPEAKERS BUILT INTO THE BACK SEAT WITH TWEETERS UP FRONT. IT HAS PLENTY OF PUNCH AND DOES HAVE THE REMOTE. ALL GUAGES WORK EXCEPT THE GAS GUAGE. PROBOBLY A SIMPLE FIX BUT I JUST KEEP IT FULL. IT HAS A DIMMER SWITCH FOR THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE FLOORBOARD. THERE IS A READING LIGHT ON THE REAR VIEW MIRROR. ALL SPEEDS SHIFT SMOOTHLY ALTHOUGH IF YOU ARE ON AN INCLINE IT MAY JUMP OUT OF REVERSE SOMETIMES. IT HAS SEATBELTS UP FRONT AND ONE THAT GOES ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE BACK SEAT. ALL LIGHTS AND SIGNALS WORK. THE ENGINE DOES NOT SMOKE AND HAS LOTS OF POWER. I HAVE TOLD ABOUT EVERYTHING I CAN THINK OF ON THIS FINE BUGGY AND AM BEING STRAIT UP ABOUT EVERYTHING. YOU ARE WELCOME TO CALL WITH ANY QUESTIONS AT (803)475-4798.

Volkswagen Golf R Evo may debut at Beijing Motor Show
Thu, 23 Jan 2014If a report in Auto Express is correct, a lighter, faster brother to the Volkswagen Golf R will be shown to the world at the Beijing Motor Show in April. Said to be called the Golf R Evo, the even harder hot hatch would be unveiled as one of those concepts that's practically a de facto presentation of the genuine thing. The Evo in its name will come from having a carbon fiber roof and CF in the bodywork, lighter wheels, thinner bucket seats up front and a roll cage instead of rear seats.
If there's a power increase, it's been described as "a small bump." However, as the report mentions, if the Jenny Craig regimen can drop 100 kilograms (220 pounds) from the the 3,247-pound weight of the European Golf R, then the Golf R Evo will do about the same damage on the scales as the Golf but have at least 50 more horsepower and 44 more pound-feet of torque.
Since we still don't have the current Golf, this isn't something that should keep you awake even if the 'concept' does become a production model. But it is good to know that the Golf R is really going to start pushing its boundaries.
VW builds 250,000th Passat in Chattanooga in just two years
Sun, 26 May 2013It 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.
VW Jetta TDI Value Edition drops price of diesel ownership to $21,295*
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Getting a new diesel-powered car just got a bit easier. Volkswagen has announced a new Jetta TDI Value Edition for 2014 that trims over $2,000 off the starting price of a Jetta TDI, making the most affordable diesel-powered car in America even more so. Prices start at $21,295 (*plus $820 for destination) for a Value Edition with a six-speed manual transmission, while a six-speed dual-clutch automatic adds $1,100 to the price. For that money, owners will get 140 horsepower, 236 pound-feet of torque and 42 miles per gallon on the freeway.
Despite the lower price and being down on content versus the previous base Jetta TDI, the Value Edition does come quite well equipped, with standard heated cloth seats, a six-speaker stereo with a Media Device Interface, satellite radio, and one-touch, up-down power windows on all four doors. Customers will be giving up some notable stuff though, including tilt/telescopic steering, Bluetooth streaming audio, power seats and a multi-function steering wheel.
Still, if you're aching to get your hands on a new TDI, this is now the most affordable way to do it. We suspect having the lower MSRP will help the German manufacturer make even further diesel-powered inroads here in the States, a land where they cleared their decks of over 100,000 TDI models in 2013.
