  Up for sale is a 1976 Volkswagen Beetle convertible!  I am helping a friend sell his car.  He has owned the car for six years. It was purchased as a fun car for his wife and has seen limited use. It is showing 62103 miles on the odometer at this time. It is unknown if the odometer has rolled over or not. 

  The car was painted seven years ago by the previous owner.  The paint shows pretty well but here are two major runs on the front hood down by the hood handle as shown in the pictures. These are the only real flaws in the paint and it has held up well over time. The color is a little off of the original sonnengalb L13K paint code but is still a nice bright yellow.  The sides are painted two tone white.  The door jambs are painted to match the exterior of the car. The trunk and engine compartment remain in the original color and look very nice.  There is no rust in the trunk, engine compartment or interior floorboards.  The car itself is largely rust free with only surface rust on the outside of the floorpan underneath from the car being driven. The car is very straight with no body damage or dents. One fender was replaced prior to the paint job but it is hard to tell without disassembling the car.

The engine is the stock unit and retains the stock fuel injection.  The car runs and drives very nice and there are no mechanical issues.  The fuel tank was recently replaced with a new one.  The car retains the stock wheels and hubcaps in good condition.  The tires have good tread but are starting to crack with time.  All doors and windows work fine.  The top and headliner are in good condition with no rips tears or fading. The top functions as it should and is weather tight. All of the glass is in good condition.  The windshield was removed for the paint and has new rubber.  The rest of the body seals are in good shape.  All chrome, trim, and bumpers are present and undamaged.

  The interior is in very nice stock shape. The front seats have new covers in the stock style and the rear seat is in good original condition with no rips or tears.  Door panels and carpet look good and are stock.  The dash is nice with no cracks all the gauges function properly as do all of the lights.

  Overall the car is in great condition and is ready to drive and enjoy the summer fun!!

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.

VW Jetta TDI Value Edition drops price of diesel ownership to $21,295*

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

Getting 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.

Editors' Choice: Top Five 2013 Geneva Motor Show Debuts

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

We've returned from a very busy week in Switzerland, and in going back over all of our 75 stories from the Geneva Motor Show, our editors have gathered up their personal favorite debuts from the European expo.
The wonderful thing about the Geneva show is just how wide of an array of vehicles are on display - everything from funny little one-off EVs to the most exotic of supercars to, well, truly ridiculous displays of coachbuilding. And because of that, this list of our editors' favorites might not be as predictable as you think.
But we don't want to give anything away just yet. Scroll down to have a look at our team's favorites from Geneva.
