Selling my wife's car.  Super nice 2001 VW Turbo Diesel Beetle.  This has been her daily commuting car, but with our second child born, it has become impractical to use with two car seats.  Wanting to upgrade to more family geared car... So here's your opportunity to own a highly sought after car!!  

This Beetle runs awesome, you probably won't find a better one any time soon!  Super running diesel Bug.  Very reliable.  Clean, no smells, super solid, ready to go!  Averages 45+ MPG!!  No shimmys, rattles, or weird noises.  Tracks straight and rolls smooth.  Starts smooth and automatic transmission works as should.   All lights, horn, accessories work as should. Added a panzer plate from diesel geek dot com, it's a super heavy duty aluminum skid plate to protect engine and transmission. Paid $300. 
The beetle looks pretty good for being a 2001, although, I'm not going to lie, it is a 2001 and has it's fair share of scratches, dings, and patchy clear coat flake.  The hood and top have the most clear coat fade.  Please see pictures.  All in all, it's in ok shape.  Front lower valance is missing, missed a turn this pass winter, hit a ditch and messed it up.  Can be found here on Ebay for $200. Front left hand corner of bumper got cracked and flaked some paint off.  See pic. 
Mechanically, car is in great shape and would drive anywhere.  No oil leaks anywhere!  All maintenance is up to date.  All records availible with car.  Recent maintenance includes new injector pump, fuel filter, and new timing belt.  Tires are in newer Goodyear TripleTread tires in excellent shape and all match.  An extra set of snow tires will be include in sale of beetle.  Newer front and rear brakes, new front rotors, new serpentine belt, new air filter, and mass flow sensor, two brand new OEM headlights!  Old headlights were faded and dim.  Hot heater, ice cold A/C, Radio is an Sony cd with aux input.  Wife wanted to listen to her tunes!  Stock VW radio will be included in sale.  I have 3 keys for this car.  1 collapsible, with alarm button, and trunk pop, and the other 2 are valet keys.
Since we have owned the car, the airbag light has been on.  VW mechanic told us it was the passenger seat belt latch switch bad, but explained it would not affect operation of air bags.  We just never got it fixed.  This past spring the check engine light has come on and the VW mechanic explained that the glow plug wiring bridge needs replaced to correct fault.  Have receipt with estimate.  Figured I'd do it myself this summer, but have not gotten to it.  The part sells on Ebay for $60.  Glow plugs are only needed when it gets cold, so daily summer driving has been no problem.  Headliner has slight sag, and drivers seat has minor rip, see pic.
I live minutes from Columbus Ohio.  If high bidder lives out of state would like to fly in to Port Columbus, would be willing to meet at airport.  Please email me if you believe this would be an option for you.  My reserve is slightly below my Buy it Now price.  I purchased this Beetle off Ebay almost two years ago, and have sold several other of my vehicles here on Ebay.  Title is clear and have in hand.  If you live in the area and want to take for a test drive, please message me.
I have been truthful about any and all issues.  Bid with confidence!  My wife and I have been buying and selling on Ebay since '95 with Excellent feedback.  If you have any questions or if I have left something out, please email me and will respond an quick as possible.

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.

Volkswagen Golf R wagon promises to be fast and functional [w/poll]

Tue, 25 Mar 2014

Volkswagen's array of performance-oriented Golfs keeps getting bigger and bigger. What started with the GTI has since grown to include the diesel GTD, the hybrid GTE and the most powerful Golf R. But the additions haven't all come down to powertain. There's been cabrio versions of the GTI and Golf R as well, but before all is said and done, there will be one more bodystyle to join the lineup.
That, according to these latest spy shots, would be the Golf R Variant. For those unfamiliar, Variant is what Volkswagen calls the wagon version of the Golf (in some markets, anyway). It offers the Golf Variant with a variety of engines, but as the spy shots reveal, it is now working on bringing the Golf Variant and the Golf R together into one high-powered, long-roofed model.
The VW Golf R Variant would in all likelihood pack the same 2.0-liter turbo four as the hatchback, splitting 290 horsepower between all four wheels. Only in the wagon, it would offer that extra bit of utility. Of course there's no guarantee that Volkswagen would offer the Golf R Variant in the North American market, but considering that the Golf R hatchback will soon be joined in American showrooms by the Golf SpotWagen (as it's tipped to be called here) in place for the Jetta wagon, the possibility is definitely there.

Jalopnik and Consumer Reports see who can pull off the best snow drift

Fri, Feb 20 2015

The weather throughout much of the United States is pretty awful at the moment with some combination of extremely low temperatures, inches of snow and maybe some ice underneath it all. The folks at Jalopnik and Consumer Reports are making the absolute best out of a difficult situation by heading to CR's snow-covered test track and attempting to make the longest drift in a quartet of very different performance vehicles. Jalopnik brought along a Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S Wagon, a Subaru WRX STI, a BMW 228i and a 1973 Volkswagen Baja Bug (heck yeah!) for the challenge. Also, the track was perfect for this group, with a mix of packed snow in places and still a few inches of unsullied powder in spots too. Ostensibly the goal was to get the tail to step out through a particular corner, but in reality this was more about having hilarious fun in the snow with fast cars. The result just looks like the best time humanly possible in this weather.
