You are bidding on our daily driver TDI Jetta.  It is the new body style.  It is not much of a looker but should run another 100-200k!  It is a rebuilt/salvage title due to an engine swap (previous owner got the chassis from a salvage yard).  The chassis has approx. 185k miles while the motor has 158k miles.  All major maintenance(timing belt, tensioners, etc.) was done at the time of the swap (around 111k).  I have gotten as high as 48 mpg, while using the air conditioning and driving normal speeds.  I am sure you could push 50 mpgs if you drove slower and paid attention to the rpms etc.  The negatives about this car are: Paint is oxidized and has several small dents, the heater core is bypassed as it was leaking (it is expensive to replace due to the high amount of labor hours involved) so I disconnected the heater since it is rarely needed here in SoCal.  Air conditioning blows ice cold!! There are no check engine lights or oil leaks!  Feel free to email me if you have any questions.  Good luck and happy fuel savings!!

Former Porsche CEO Wiedeking indicted over VW takeover bid

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

Do you recall the failed efforts by Porsche to take over Volkswagen? According to a Bloomberg report, former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above) and ex-CFO Holger Haerter have finally been charged with market manipulation over the exercising of options as part of the German sportscar manufacturer's ill-fated attempt to take over the much larger VW. That failed bid eventually resulted in the reverse coming true - VW swallowing Porsche.
The charges leveled by Stuttgart prosecutors come after a three-year investigation centered around allegations that Porsche execs made a concerted effort to increase the company's share in VW to 75 percent in preparation for a hostile takeover. Porsche had previously told its investors on at least five occasions that it had no intention to buy VW.
Portions of the investigation have subsided, according to prosecutors, citing an inability to prove certain improprieties with a "necessary degree of certainty." The number of charges is down to 5 from a previous 14 counts regarding "information-based market manipulation."

Translogic 164: Driving the fuel cell vehicles of the 2014 LA Auto Show

Wed, Nov 26 2014

The LA Auto Show is known for its environmentally friendly vehicle debuts. At last year's show, hydrogen fuel cell concepts from Honda and Toyota joined a lease-ready Hyundai Tucson FCEV to cast a green hue over the convention center. This year, automakers took us a step closer to a fuel cell future by offering drives of their hydrogen-electric hybrids. Translogic host Jonathon Buckley takes a ride in the Toyota Mirai, which is headed for production in 2016. He follows that with a spin in the Volkswagen Passat HyMotion and the Audi A7 Sportback h-tron quattro concept. Which of these fuel cell vehicles holds the most promise? Tune in to find out.
