For bid is my 2001 Beetle. It is a beautiful bright blue with a cream interior. It is in very nice condition, with only a few small blemishes to the lower passenger side where it rubbed the curb, as it sets very low. Paint is very shiny and bright. I bought this car about 4 years ago as an extra driver, but have not driven it enough to justify keeping it. It runs fantastic and gets about 24 to 26 mpg. The way it is geared this 2.0 liter 5 speed will go over most hills without shifting. Interior in in nice condition, with lots of options. Power windows, power locks, keyless entry, multi disc cd player in trunk with Monsoon am fm cd player in dash. Heated seats and power sliding pop up sunroof along with cruise control, clock, and outside temp. Front tires are winter treads with about 500 or less miles. Rear tires have about 1/4 tread. New battery this spring. Now for the small problems. The check engine light is on even though it has been covered with something. The diagnosis is oxygen sensor. When I bought the car the light was on, and I replaced the lower sensor. It came back on so I took it to VW and they replaced the cat conv, which was on recall. The light came back on, so this time I replaced the upper sensor. It came back on. I talked to a couple of mechanics, and they said with the ethanol in the gas I might as well forget it, so I did !! I unplugged the seatbelt bell wire. and that caused the air bag light to come on. The brakes act up and make an odd noise off and on, but the brakes are good. Now with that said, this is a nice little car. I would not be afraid to hop in and take it anywhere. The NADA retail on this car is around $5400. Here is your chance to own a great bug at a great price. Ask any questions and I will be glad to answer. I will also be glad to meet you part way if you are driving a distance, contact me and we can make arrangements. Thanks, and good luck.

Porsche 911 with VW turbodiesel prepares for LeMons assault
Fri, 21 Mar 2014LeMons racing is a wonderful example that setting limits can actually breed creativity. The series mandates that all entries must cost $500, not counting safety equipment, and that cap forces teams to be ingenious in how they build a racecar. Take for example this diesel-powered Porsche 911, which its creators have dubbed Ferkel the Nein-11, that will be racing in the Sears Pointless race this weekend in Sonoma, California.
This Frankenstein combines a 911 chassis that was originally bought just for its European powertrain and a Volkswagen TDI diesel engine mounted in the rear. After deciding the shell could still be of some use, the team decided to go racing. "We began brainstorming what replacement drivetrain to use for maximum offense and there was really only one answer: a diesel," said Philipp von Weitershausen, one of the team captains, to Jalopnik. They bought a 1998 Jetta TDI on the cheap and started figuring out a way to hack the engine into the bay. To pay respect to the donor, the VW's trunk was highly modified (and drilled) and grafted onto the back of Ferkel.
This team isn't a newcomer to LeMons. Its last car was a classic VW Beetle with a Subaru engine and dual controls, named Ferdinand the Bug, which could be driven from the left or right side. It's quite a sight.
GM outsold VW globaly in first quarter, Toyota reports numbers next week
Thu, 18 Apr 2013General Motors released its first quarter sales figures this week, reporting that it sold 2.36 million cars and trucks worldwide. That figure represents an increase of 3.6 percent when compared to the same period last year. GM's growth was attributed to many factors, including global Cadillac sales that were up 26 percent and Chevrolet posting a one percent increase over last year (this marked Chevy's tenth straight year of record global sales).
Volkswagen came in just behind GM, as the German automaker reported global sales from January through March at 2.27 million vehicles, an increase of five percent when compared to last year. While that number was strong, VW is cautioning that markets outside China and the US, such as those in Europe, are becoming a challenge as economies falter.
Yet to report sales is Toyota, current holder of the global world sales crown (the Japanese company sold 9.75 million cars last year, against 9.29 million sold by GM and 9.1 million vehicles sold by VW). Even though GM and Toyota both say they don't care who sells the most units, it is unquestionably a strong bragging point and sales equate to revenue. That said, Toyota will report its first quarter numbers next week.
Peugeot will prove it doesn't offer cheater diesels
Thu, Oct 29 2015Our diesels are clean, really. That's the message from French automaker PSA/Peugeot-Citroen as it plans to go on the offensive in response to Volkswagen's diesel-emissions scandal. PSA will go out of its way to prove its diesels are as clean as advertised. The company is looking at disclosing "real-world" fuel-economy statistics as soon as next spring and will use an independent entity to vet the numbers, Automotive News Europe says, citing comments that PSA/Peugeot-Citroen financial chief Jean-Baptiste de Chatillon made to reporters this week. Such efforts may be vital, since roughly two-thirds of the vehicles Peugeot-Citroen sells in Europe are powered by a diesel engine. Last month, VW admitted that as many as 11 million of its diesel-powered vehicles were programmed with software designed to cheat emissions-testing systems. The news shook up the industry, especially companies that sell a good chunk of diesels. The EU itself may start instituting "real world" fuel-economy and emissions testing as soon as 2017. French regulators have said they may eliminate diesel-fuel subsidies that currently make diesel fuel cheaper to customers than gas. That adjustment may occur as soon as next year, since it's been pushed up in response to the VW scandal. Peugeot-Citron continues to reiterate that it has never installed software that was designed to cheat emissions-testing systems. Additionally, the automaker was more than a decade ahead of European Union mandates for engine components designed to cut soot emissions, so the company is hoping its track record makes a difference. It wants to be perfectly clear about that.
