Most Sought After 2003 Vw Diesel Golf - Last Year Before Emissions. 45 Mpg!! on 2040-cars
Brewster, New York, United States
|
What's Good: 45 MPG!!!!!! Florida car - never seen NY winter. New $1200.00 Pioneer touch screen AM/FM/XM DVD Player/Blue tooth. Interior has no rips or obvious wear. 5 Speed Like new tires Airbags everywhere - good for insurance discounts Power Windows/doors/mirrors/Good A-C Body in very good shape Tinted windows all around. One owner prior to my purchasing in April 2014. ABS Cruise Control is in excellent working order. Lots of room for cargo. I just changed the oil and filter - I'm an AMSOIL dealer and used their synthetic oil for small European Diesels. Put $40.00 in the tank and drive about 500 miles before thinking about stopping again!! HAS THULE ROOF RACKS - NOT PICTURED BUT WILL INCLUDE IF WANTED. The car rides and drives nicely and I have put 8K miles on it in the 4 months I've had it. I drive over 30K a year which is why this car saved me a lot of money in just the short time I've had it. What's Bad: I've sold vehicles on eBay before and always give a very honest and comprehensive assessment of what the vehicle's problems are. I don't want the buyer to have any surprises. I purchased this vehicle from Caliber Imports in Montrose, NY - who deals exclusively in these VW Diesels - I paid $8,800 for the car. I wanted the VW Diesel because of the amazing mileage (I was told 50 MPG but this gets 45) I made the mistake of believing the seller about a lot of things, the worst being a clean carfax. The vehicle does not have a salvage title but the carfax says "structural damage in left front pillar". This makes the resale a problem, although I had a professional body mechanic inspect the car and was told that either there was no damage or it was fixed so well that there's no way to tell. The car rides very nicely, especially on the highway. I will email you a scan of the carfax or you can check the Vehicle History Report eBay provides. The eBay vehicle history report does not have the same warning about "possible structural damage" as carfax - but the buyer should know that the carfax paints a darker picture of the vehicle's history. Otherwise, there are some issues where you will have to spend some money, which is why I'm not keeping it. For me to put more money into the car would mean that I spent what amounts to the price of a reasonable new car on a used car, so it is best that I sell this car, proceed civilly against Caliber Imports, and buy new. I've had this car checked by 2 different mechanics because I have a small claim filed against the seller so I will list what both Danbury Volkswagen and Meccanic Shop North in North Salem, NY found alongside the problem I describe. Cranks slowly on cold start - Fault for quantity adjuster in injection pump, failing starter. Squeaking in front end - Sway bar bushings, brackets, front struts Has on occasion bogged, worst case on a very steep hill with three (3) people in the vehicle - Mass air sensor Glove box door won't close. Replace door. Musty smell Replace carpets. Meccanic Shop North is very well known or servicing high end foreign cars, and their estimate to bring the car into a very sound mechanical condition was $1,383.79. Danbury Volkswagen (dealers are know for outrageous service fees) came in at around four times that amount - $5295.00 To the right person, this car is very valuable. I still drive it daily and I'm saving a ton of money over my F250 diesel that gets about 14 MPG. I noticed right away how I have a lot more spending cash driving this car around. I'm listing it at $1,200 more than the cost of the radio which is brand new and wish everyone luck bidding. I just noticed a small chip in the windshield which I will have repaired. VW of Danbury indicated that there is some oil seepage from valve cover gasket. |

Volkswagen Cross Up! headed for production after Geneva reveal
Wed, 13 Feb 2013The last time we saw the Volkswagen Cross Up!, it was sitting out in the snow in prototype form, but the next time we'll see this slightly more rugged version of the diminutive Up! hatchback will be when it makes its production debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month. Looking like a micro-crossover with its raised ground clearance and black cladding, the Cross Up! will be the fourth "Cross" model for VW (after the CrossPolo, CrossGolf and CrossTouran) when it goes on sale this summer in mainland Europe (UK sales remain up in the air and US sales are highly unlikely).
Overall, the styling of the production Cross Up! has stayed fairly true to the 2011 concept car, including the front and rear fascias that offer a more rugged look, stocky 16-inch wheels and roof rack side rails. Inside, this model will get unique interior enhancements such as "Cross Up!" sill plates and an instrument panel available in red, black or silver. Like the regular Up!, the Cross Up! is powered by a 74-horsepower, 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine paired to a five-speed manual transmission, and it doesn't look like all-wheel drive will be part of the picture. For more details on the upcoming Cross Up!, check out VW's press release posted below.
Volkswagen Golf Wagon leaked ahead of official unveiling
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Wagons ho! These three images of the upcoming Volkswagen Golf Wagon have leaked online ahead of the car's official debut, which may very well be at the Geneva Motor Show. Looking over the photos doesn't really bring any surprises - after all, this is a VW Golf with a wagon rear end grafted on, or basically what we expect next Jetta SportWagen will be.
We can only share these three images at this time, but fret not, folks. There's little doubt that all the details and images will be flowing from Volkswagen in short order. In the meantime, click on the images above to view them in high resolution.
VW previews retouched 2014 Touareg for Beijing
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Volkswagen is in New York this week showing off its new Jetta and Golf TDI SportWagen concept. But in less than a week, the German automaker will be off to China for the Beijing Motor Show, where it will showcase the revised Touareg you see here.
A subtle update on the Touareg that's been on the market in its current form for four years now, the facelifted model features reworked styling front and rear, an updated interior and a host of new technologies to keep it current in the highly competitive SUV market. Among those new features are larger bi-xenon headlights, coasting function, Google Maps integration and a post-collision braking system designed to prevent a second crash.
VW will offer the new Touareg with a variety of engines around the world, but in North America it'll carry over the same six-cylinder powertrain options as the outgoing model: a 3.6-liter V6 with 280 horsepower, a 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 with 240 hp (though torque isn't listed, we'd expect around 406 pound-feet, same as last year) and a hybrid that marries a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 to an electric motor that combine to deliver 380 hp.
