We are the 2nd owners and my wife uses this car as a daily driver that is garaged at home and at work.
The first was a 74 year old local retired gentleman. We hold the clean and clear title in hand with MY NAME on it ! i have personally driven this car to Chicago and back averaging 47MPG doing ~3mph over the speed limit. 42MPG in real world conditions are easily obtainable if you stick to Energy-efficient driving techniques. My wife does a lot of city driving and naturally refuses to obey any of my instructions on hypermiling and gets an average of around 38MPG. ;-) No repaints, accidents or bodywork of any kind. Garaged EVERY night and EVERY single day at work. The car has minor dents, dings and scratches from every day use that happened during previous owners ownership - but rest assured we are the ones ALWAYS parking furthest from the entrance of the grocery store, restaurant or any structure prone to be frequented by the careless masses. Known as a Mk6 Golf variant on the rest of the planet, but sold as the Jetta Sportwagen here in the US. If you are looking at this listing you must know how coveted these are. I will spare you the plethora of reviews that rant and rave about the superiority of the TDI wagon to any SUV when it comes to fuel economy, utilitarian value, practicality and TCO (total cost of ownership). The car has following options : - Platinum gray metallic Exterior Titan Black Interior - DVD satellite Navigation system ($1800 and worth every penny!) - Panoramic sunroof ($1300) - 6-speed DSG transmission ($1100) - 17" alloy wheels ($450) - Rear Side Airbags (rare) ($350) - Sport & Protection Rubber mats, splash guards & trunk liner ($310) - Media Device Interface for ipod ($200) all in it cost $30,559 plus tax delivered at Byers Imports in Columbus, OH. All maintenance done at local VW and Audi dealerships Byers and Hatfield, all paperwork incl. windowsticker comes with the car. After free maintenance (until 36k miles) always serviced by Jon Hamilton, a TDI-club trusted mechanic and world record holder on Pikes Peak in a 2000 Golf TDI, starting with the 40k DSG service. 2-17-2014 complete timing belt service: replaced timing belt, timing belt cover, timing belt tensioner, small top roller, small lower roller, large upper roller, water pump, serpentine belt and coolant - while the car was out of commission for a few days I went ahead and had a RocketChip Stage 1+ tune done ($1653.57) 12-2-13 60k service incl. brake fluid replacement ($224.70) (all OE parts used, german Pentosin Super Dot 4 brake fluid, etc. etc.) 11-12-2013 all tires were replaced with Continental Extreme Contact DWS All Season tires incl. discount tire free replacement certificates (works at every discount tire in the US, $701). 5-21-2013 DSG (fluid and filter) and 50k miles service ($416.33) please contact me with any serious questions. I can send you a link to the picasa web album with detailed high res pics. I also have a carfax report as well. this pic shows every tool i own in the back of the trunk. I ran out of tools before i ran out of space ;-) I will arrange PPIs at buyers expense (and reserve the right to refuse shops that i deem not trustworthy with my cars) and would be more than happy to accommodate a fly & drive. Closest airport to me is CMH (Port Columbus International Airport). My last TDI (an ALH) with almost 200k miles went to a very happy and satisfied buyer in Texas who flew in and drove it back (never having driven a manual car before) and averaged 56mpg all the way back ;-) in case you are wondering why the timing belt, water pump, rollers and tensioners have been done already - this was due to a timing belt roller bearing failure. as a result : - outer shell "ate" a perfect hole through the timing belt cover - something started cutting into the timing belt - all the balls from the bearing ended up in the bottom half of the timing belt cover HOWEVER no tooth was skipped, belt did not tear and no further damage but boy what a PITA having to do the timing belt 4k miles after warranty ran out. Most guys do not do all this work until 100k-120k miles. So the biggest maintenance item has been done. |

Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off
Fri, Nov 21 2014Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.

Vahland leaving VW over dispute on how to run NA region
Wed, Oct 14 2015On November 1, Winfried Vahland was supposed to take over Volkswagen Group's recently created North American region that combines Canada, the US, and Mexico. But the longtime exec has instead decided to leave the automaker after a dispute over how to manage the new combined region. Vahland is currently the boss at Skoda, and in a statement about his departure the Czech company said: "Differing views on the organization of the new Group region have led to this decision; this decision is expressly not related to current events on the issue of diesel engines." Vahland is leaving at his own request, the announcement says. Vahland was appointed to run to North American region during VW's massive corporate shakeup on September 25. The decision was part of the automaker's plan to put a greater emphasis on regions and brands, rather than on centralized authority. According to Automotive News Europe citing a report from Germany's Auto Bild, Vahland was passed over for the CEO job, with Matthias Muller taking that position. Amidst the changes, Michael Horn remained at the helm of Volkswagen Group of America, reporting to the new regional boss. Vahland joined the automaker in 1990 and started running VW's operations in China in 2005. He became boss at Skoda in 2010. "In the last 25 years, Prof. Vahland made a great contribution to the company. We respect his decision and thank him for his exceptional performance," Muller said in the departure announcement. Prof. Dr. Winfried Vahland leaves Volkswagen Group 14.10.2015 Prof. Dr. Winfried Vahland leaves Volkswagen Group Mlada Boleslav, 14 October 2015 – After 25 years of successful work in Volkswagen Group, most recently as Chairman of SKODA, Prof. Dr. Winfried Vahland is leaving the company at his own request. Prof. Vahland will therefore not be taking up the position of overall responsibility for the North American Region (NAR). Differing views on the organisation of the new Group region have led to this decision; this decision is expressly not related to current events on the issue of diesel engines. Prof. Vahland began his work in Volkswagen Group in 1990. After holding several key positions at home and abroad, he took over Group responsibility as President and CEO of Volkswagen in China in 2005 and contributed significantly to the successful new direction of Volkswagen in China. He was appointed Chairman of the Board of Management of SKODA in 2010.
Help a couple drive their 1984 Vanagon around the world
Mon, 22 Apr 2013Meet Brad, Sheena and Nacho
Driving through China is a pricey proposition. The couple will need to pony up a staggering $19,514 just to cover the fees.
Brad and Sheena Van Orden are in the midst of a life-defining campaign to travel around the world, and they're doing it in a 1984 Volkswagen Vanagon custom built for the occasion. The past 15 months have seen the couple quit their jobs with Gore-Tex and drive from Arizona to the very southern tip of Argentina after spending a full two years saving and preparing for the trek. Now they're in southern Asia gearing up for the next leg of their journey.
