This car was languishing at the back of a body shop I use for my antique car painting. They told me the owner of the VW wanted some work done but could not afford it and it was sitting there for a couple of years. I contacted the owner and bought the car from him. He had it for over 20 years.
I thought my wife would like to drive it as a fun summer car after I fixed it up since she always says they are cute when she sees them, so I put on new tires, new brakes, new control arms and axles and front suspension parts. New timing chain, tune up, complete fluid flush and filter change, new convertible top and seat covers. I was going to get the car dings repaired, the one rust spot ( top of trunk on left side ) and repainted yellow but when my wife saw me working on it, she said she didn't want one, just thought they were cute. Maybe I should have held off showing her until it was repainted. So.... since I have no use for the car myself, here it is. It starts right up. Runs strong. Does not leak, smoke or have any warning lights on. It needs a good cleaning inside and out. The top and back window are new as of this week and do not leak even during the heavy rains we have had here in S, Florida. You might be able to compound up the faded paint but since it is so hot here I haven't bothered to try it myself. Photos we have are posted and were taken this week. If you want to see something that does not show up in the pictures, please email. This is a great inexpensive car to work on as you drive and enjoy driving with the top down on nice days, As this is a used car, is it sold as / is, where / is, with no warranties.

2015 Volkswagen GTI [w/video]
Fri, 26 Apr 2013The 911 Of Hot Hatches Takes The Compact Game To New Levels
North American car buyers get a bit of a slap in the face when it comes to delivery schedules for new the Volkswagen Golf and pumped-up GTI models. We'll just repeat the old chestnut: It's worth the wait... even though it still stinks. This time around, Western Europe is taking deliveries of the new Golf as we speak, and GTI deliveries start between May and July. North America doesn't get the Mk7 Golf or GTI until about July of 2014.
So we approached our first drive of the new GTI with this chip on our shoulder: "You're making us wait? Well, then at least give us the exact car we'll be able to buy. No compromises, mein freund." And so it was that we extracted nearly all of our drive impressions from behind the wheel of what, for the United States, will technically be a model year 2015 two-door Volkswagen Golf GTI Performance with the standard six-speed manual.
10 best new car deals of November 2021
Thu, Nov 4 2021Sales of new cars, trucks and SUVs were drastically affected in 2020 due to the (still) ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The market started to show signs of recovery toward the end of last year before really coming on strong in the early months of 2021. Of course, then pandemic-related parts and worker shortages along with global shipping constraints started running amok and causing a great deal of pricing fluctuation and a limited supply of certain vehicles. Those problems (among other things) have led to record-high new-car transaction prices in the United States. The good news is that there are still plenty of great deals on new cars. Using data provided by TrueCar, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best automotive deals for November 2021. WeÂ’ve noted the original MSRP, the average transaction price, and the total savings in both dollars and as a percentage of the original sticker price. Basically, weÂ’ve done all the hard work for you! So now, all you need to do is compare deals, go on a few test drives, and maybe drive away in a great car (and an even better bargain).
VW confirms development of 10-speed dual clutch, 134-hp/liter diesel
Fri, 26 Apr 2013Each year, the Vienna International Motor Symposium showcases some of the up-and-coming technologies automakers are engineering for the use in passenger cars, and Volkswagen AG CEO Martin Winterkorn revealed some big developments VW is working on for its future products. Winterkorn discussed a multi-faceted approach that VW is looking to reduce its fleet fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.
Some of the bigger news he discussed included a "high-performance" diesel engine that will produce 134 horsepower per liter and a 10-speed DSG automatic transmission. While no specific applications were mentioned, we can only hope this is for the Audi R4 we keep hearing about.
Another topic he touched on that caused us to perk up our ears was had to do with VW's plug-in hybrid technology. While we know the PHEV versions of the Audi A3 and Porsche Panamera are on the way, Winterkorn also said that these two models will be followed up by Golf, Passat, Audi A6 and Porsche Cayenne plug-in models. Scroll down for a press release highlighting the automaker's future fuel-saving initiatives.
