2003 Vw Jetta Vr6 2.8l - Arizona Car - 6 Spd Manual on 2040-cars

Year:2003 Mileage:130800
Location:

Glendale, Arizona, United States

Glendale, Arizona, United States

We are selling our 2003 Volkswagen Jetta VR6 2.8L, 6 spd manual with 130k miles on it.  The vehicle is not running.  It looks as though it blew the head gasket.  It has new tires and a new battery not even a month old.  The radio has been removed and you can install whatever sound system you would like.

This is an Arizona car, which are highly desirable since we don’t go through the harsh winters - salted roads, rust and corrosion issues are not a problem for us. 

The Jetta is black with a black interior, it is a very sharp car and in good condition considering its age.

I’m selling it as is and giving the opportunity for someone to do the repairs necessary to end up with a really nice car at a good deal.  The current book value is $5900 and I have included an image of the book sheet for you to verify.  

I’ve got many projects that I want to get to and this VW is down my list of priorities right now.  Not to mention its 100+ degrees and I really don’t want to do the repairs in this heat.  If it does not sell now I’m okay with keeping it and doing the repairs when the weather cools off.   This is an incredible opportunity for you to own a highly desirable AZ car at a fraction of it's actual value.

Please expect to either replace the head with a rebuilt one or rebuilding the current head – but it would be foolish not to do this since it will be off anyways.  My assumption at this point, not having the motor torn down, is that the head, head gasket and new fluids should get this beautiful car back on the road.  Again, this is an assumption since I have not taken the topside of this motor a part yet to verify exactly what is necessary.  Regardless, at this low reserve price, whatever is necessary even up to replacing the entire motor will leave you in a good position value wise to what you are paying now.   

There are your typical dings & scratches which are to be expected with a vehicle of this age.  There is a tear in the drivers seat which I have shown in the pictures.  Please understand, this is a 2003 vehicle and you should expect the typical wear and tear that you would see on a car that's 11 years old.  If you need more pictures, please ask for them.  If you need more information about the car, please ask before you bid.

Please understand that you are responsible for shipping this car in its present non-running condition.  You need to make arrangements with your transportation company and make them aware of this. 

The Jetta is advertised locally and I do reserve the right to sell it outside of this auction at any time and cancel this auction.

A $500 deposit is required within 24 hours of completion of this auction.  The balance can easily be handled with a bank wire transfer, a certified bank cashiers check or in cash if you live local and plan on picking it up yourself.  The vehicle must be paid for in full within 7 days of the completed auction and before the vehicle will be released to its new owner.

Wagons 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.

Volkswagen E-Co-Motion Concept brings electric mobility to the commercial set

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

Volkswagen sees a future where the bulk of the world's freight is moved into city centers by train, then offloaded onto a fleet of smaller, light-duty commercial vehicles for final delivery. Those vehicles could wind up looking something like the company's E-Co-Motion Concept that debuted at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. The EV features a modular underfloor drive unit comprised of a battery, motor and gearbox that can be paired with any number of cab and body configurations to suit a buyer's needs, from a refrigerated box to a standard flat bed.
The E-Co-Motion Concept features a rear-mounted electric motor with 113 horsepower and 199 pound-feet of torque. A standard 20 kWh battery pack provides a driving range of up to 62 miles, while 30 kWh and 40 kWh packs could deliver 93 and 124 miles of travel, respectively. Check out the press release below for more information.

Volkswagen profit jumps as it warns of a cooling auto market

Wed, Oct 30 2019

FRANKFURT, Germany — Volkswagen says its profits jumped 44% in the third quarter thanks to a more profitable mix of vehicles in its lineup but warned that global car markets are slowing more than expected and lowered its forecast for annual sales. After-tax profit rose to $4.42 billion (3.98 billion euros) as revenues rose 11% to $68.27 billion (61.42 billion euros). The sales margin of 7.8% exceeded the goal of 6.5-7.5% as vehicles bringing higher profits took a larger share of sales. The Wolfsburg-based automaker pointed to the headwinds facing the industry by saying that it expects "vehicle markets will contract faster than previously anticipated in many regions of the world." It said sales would be "on a level" with last year's record of 10.8 million vehicles. Previously it had expected a slight increase. The company said its profits would be in the lower end of its forecast range. Global automakers are facing a slowdown in sales amid disputes over trade and from pressure in the European Union and China to develop and sell low-emission vehicles that require heavy investment in new technology. Ford and Renault have issued profit warnings in recent days, while Daimler, maker of Mercedes-Benz luxury cars, lost money in the second quarter and is expected to outline a cost-cutting strategy for investors on Nov. 14. Volkswagen is leading the push into electric vehicles in Europe by launching its ID.3 battery-powered compact car at prices it says will make zero local emission vehicles a mass phenomenon. The company was able to increase earnings in the quarter despite an 18% rise in spending on research and development.
