Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Great condition. A few minor cosmetic flaws from normal use (see below)."
Let me start off by saying that I pride myself in being absolutely honest and straightforward when dealing on eBay. I've been jerked around before and HATE people who do that kind of thing. This is meant to be a laid back, no pressure sale.
Minor cosmetic flaws:
1. Right after I got it in 2010, like a jackass I backed into a pole in a parking lot at about 0.5 mph. As a result the driver side rear tail light cracked and the bumper and rear quarter panel were scuffed. Insurance covered the incident and a brand new light was installed and the body work was done by a professional. You would never know it happened.
2. There is a small crack in the driver-side side skirt, right behind the front wheel. This was there when I got the car and I never addressed it. Looks like someone removed the side skirt at one time and I'm guessing that is how it happened (see picture).
3. There are a couple of TINY paint chips that can be covered with touch-up paint (included).
4. I bumped the headlight switch with my knee getting into the car one time and the plastic around it has a crack that is barely noticeable (see pictures).
5. There is some light curb rash on the driver-side front wheel. This was from the previous owner.
6. There is a small scratch in the rear window tint. This happened last week from a surf board fin and the glass is fine.
7. There are a couple of barely visible dimples on the trunk from where my brothers pushed me out of some snow when I drove the car to PA last Christmas. There is also a small dimple over the driver-side door, but that was not my doing.
8. If the car is left out in heavy rain, the tiniest amount of water will make its way into the trunk and collect in the spare tire well. This is a known issue on some of the MKV GTIs and I found the water to be getting in around the driver-side tail light. I haven't addressed it because the car has been garaged.
A couple of things things that I've had to have fixed on the car:
1. I had an issue with the 3rd brake light (on the rear spoiler) last year where only half the LEDs in the light were coming on. I took it to a VW dealer and they replaced an $800.00 part in the computer that was putting a bad voltage through that light, along with the light itself. The whole thing was covered under the 5 year/50,000 mile warranty and the light has been fine since.
2. The "Check Engine" light came on at the beginning of this year, so I took it to the dealership again. There was an issue with a butterfly valve sticking in the intake manifold. They replaced the whole thing while performing the 40,000 mile maintenance. This was also covered under the 5 year/50,000 mile warranty.
A couple of things that have been added:
1. The car has super dark tint all the way around, and it was professionally done, so it looks awesome. I got pulled over for it immediately after buying the car, and was given a warning and told to have it removed. That was in Ohio, but in Virginia I've never been pulled over for it.
2. The car has the nice GTI rubber floor mats ($100.00). The driver one is coming close to having a small hole worn through where the heel rests in front of the gas pedal, but the rest are like new. It also has the VW "Gorilla-Gear" trunk protector mat ($100.00). The original floor mats are included as well.
3. Less than 1500 miles ago I put Brembo drilled, zinc-coated brake rotors all around on the car, along with Hawk ceramic pads (a $700.00 investment). I was surprised at how much more responsive the brakes were, and the ceramic pads are quieter and generate less dust. These brakes look great and will stay that way for a long time.
4. I have two brand new Good Year Eagle GT All Season tires that will come with the car (worth $180.00 a piece). I already have these tires on the front, but have not yet replaced the rears (Dunlop SP Sport 01 A/S) because they're such good tires ($210.00 a piece) and still have some life left in them.
5. I put the factory VW roof bars on it ($300.00). They have a few tiny scuffs here and there but are fully functional and look and work great.
That's pretty much it. Please feel free to call or message me anytime with questions (606-547-6565), and thanks for looking!

eBay Find of the Day: Unrestored Herbie Love Bug movie car
Wed, Dec 10 2014Well before Cars ever hit the screens, The Love Bug series of Disney films – starring Herbie the VW Beetle with a mind of its own – was an early introduction to cars and racing for many budding auto fans. Not the modern remake starring Lindsay Lohan mind you, but the originals from the '60s and '70s. Now, a seller in Texas claims to be offering a chance to own one of the Bugs from the films on eBay Motors. According to the auction, this Beetle didn't appear in the original film but was built for the sequel Herbie Rides Again in 1972 and also appeared in the third installment Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo. This VW was prepared as the blind-drive car for the movies that attached a low-mounted chair in the back and extended controls to let Herbie look like he was driving himself. Although, some of the photos here show the Bug with regular seats fitted, too. This Herbie was reportedly found in a Florida warehouse a few years ago. It was then made operable, while trying to keep it as original as possible. The exterior underwent a slight restoration with input from former Disney special effects staff, according to the seller. The changes added new graphics and rebuilt the blind drive setup. Judging by these pictures, the rest of the interior was left mostly untouched, though. Of course, anyone interested in buying a movie car is going to want proof of its authenticity. The seller claims to have the original California title showing the buyer as Disney in 1972. The Bug also reportedly has a unique rear decklid that mixes early and later parts to help identify it in the film. As of this writing, bidding for Herbie sits at $55,100 with 82 bids and a reserve not yet met. The sale closes on Saturday, December 13.
German judge 'inclined to dismiss' hedge fund lawsuit against Porsche
Fri, Feb 27 2015Last year, around two dozen investors, including hedge funds, leveled a 1.4 billion euro ($1.95 billion at the time) lawsuit against Porsche in connection with the automaker's attempted takeover of Volkswagen in 2008. The Stuttgart Regional Court dismissed the case. Around 19 of those plaintiffs are heading back to court to appeal the ruling and still hope to get 1.2 billion euros ($1.4 billion). However, according to one German judge, the chances for success aren't any better this time around. "On balance it's our view that we consider the lawsuit, or the appeal, to be unpromising for several reasons," Gerhard Ruf, a judge in Stuttgart, said to Reuters. "We are inclined to dismiss the case." The court's ruling on the appeal will be announced on March 26. The investors' case hinges on Porsche's strategy surrounding the botched takeover. The sports car maker said that it wasn't trying to control VW, when in fact it was. These hedge funds had bet against Volkswagen stock, but the share price surged when Porsche's plan inevitably came to light. Investors have sued the sports car company multiple times since then in attempts to recoup billions of dollars. However, none of the lawsuits have been successful, whether attempted in the US or Germany. Former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and and CFO Holger Haerter might still stand trial for the alleged stock manipulation, though.
