Hello and thank you for looking at my auction. 


Up for sale today is a very clean 2000 VW Jetta GLS Sedan.  This Jetta is in great condition and has just PASSED MARYLAND INSPECTION.  As you can see, this is a nice vehicle.  It is finished in  Dark Blue and the paint on this Jetta looks good.  Of course being a 13 year old vehicle there are blemishes and small dings.  Also the paint has faded some on the rear bumper but the car looks great overall.  All of the body lines are smooth and even.  All of the glass and lenses are intact.  The wheels show very well and are wrapped in a set of tires with well over 75% tread remaining.  Please take your time and review each of the photos carefully. 

The interior of this Jetta is in very good condition.  The Tan interior compliments well with the Dark Blue exterior and shows well.  The dash is clean and has no faded spots or excessive wear.  The carpets show well throughout the interior.  The door panels are clean and intact.  The power windows, locks and mirrors all work properly.  The air condition was just serviced and works well and the radio and speakers also work well. The seats are clean and comfortable and the trunk is also clean and well kept.

Mechanically this Jetta is in great running and driving condition.  The engine starts easy and runs smooth.  There are no leaks and the engine does not smoke.  The suspension is nice and tight as it should be.  The steering feels neutral and responsive.  The brakes are strong and stop this Jetta with no problems.  The Brake pad warning light is lit on the dash but my mechanic says it has over 1/3 pad left (sometimes the sensor gets bent a little and causes the light to come on way before the brakes need to be changed).  The engine keeps proper temperature and oil pressure at all times.  There is a airbag warning light on which is common on VW's due to their complex airbag system setting it off even when seats are adjusted sometimes, but this does not affect drivability and the car passed MD inspection with it on.  This Jetta drives down the road confidently and feels solid.  The engine makes good power.  The automatic transmission engages smoothly and shifts as it should.  Out on the highway this Jetta cruises effortlessly.  She goes straight down the road with no complaints and can be driven with ease.  Pride in ownership shows throughout this vehicle.  Please take the time to read this entire description.  This vehicle is represented accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and ability.  Car can be viewed anytime, just send me a message to set up appointment.

This vehicle had a new battery and a few lights changed to pass inspection and also had A/C serviced.
 
 
Buying a vehicle over the internet can be scary so I take many actions to make you feel secure with your purchase:

1. I take the time/effort and spend the money to get my vehicles through Maryland safety inspection. Maryland has one of the toughest safety inspections in the country so if a vehicle passes Maryland safety inspection "I believe" it will pass any states safety inspection.

2. I give a very detailed report of the vehicle Interior / Exterior / Mechanical condition. I have a mechanical background, "but I am not a car mechanic". I have been buying and selling cars for over 25 years so I know a lot about cars. I am as honest and accurate as possible about vehicles that I sell. You can always ask me questions about vehicles that I am selling or arrange to come see the vehicle before bidding.

3. I upload over 20 pictures of every vehicle and will try my best to send you any specific pictures that you ask for.
 
 
BEWARE OF VEHICLES THAT ARE NOT INSPECTED!!! Many people think they are getting a great deal on vehicles they buy on EBay for inexpensive prices only to find out when they take it through inspection that it needs thousands of dollars worth of work. I usually spend over a thousand dollars and put in hours of work on each vehicle to get it ready to pass Maryland inspection.

 
 
My vehicles are also for sale locally and auction may be ended early in accordance with Ebay policies.  
 

 
A $149 DEALER DOCUMENT FEE WILL BE CHARGED ON ALL SALES (INCLUDING BEST OFFERS) AND INCLUDES A TEMPORARY TAG IF NEEDED (proof of insurance and all information for title/registration is needed 24 hours before temporary tag can be issued).
 
 
A non-refundable deposit of $250 is required within 24 hours of auction close.  Remaining balance is required within 7 days of auction close by Cash in Person or Certified Bank Funds (PayPal will not be accepted for balance).  Title and vehicle will not be released until ALL funds have cleared.  Buyer must contact seller to make arrangements for vehicle pick-up within 48 hours of auction close and pick-up vehicle within 7 days.  Vehicles not picked up within 7 days will be charged a $10/day storage charge unless prior arrangements have been made. 
 
 
Thanks for looking and good luck biding.

VW midsize crossover production headed for Chattanooga

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

Potential labor woes aside, it looks like Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN factory must have done something that impressed the bosses in Germany, because it sounds like the three-year-old factory is set to score a second model.
The factory currently builds the Passat, and has been in the running alongside VW's Puebla, Mexico factory to build a new crossover vehicle, likely based on the CrossBlue Concept. According to Bloomberg, a pair of unnamed sources have confirmed that Chattanooga is the favorite ahead of an official announcement.
When last we heard about the CrossBlue Concept, word was that a production decision had been delayed over concerns about the three-row CUV's business case. That August 2013 story claimed that a decision regarding the CrossBlue would be pushed back until early in 2014, which means we're ripe for some sort of news, whether good or bad.

Ecotricity offering 1,000 free EV miles to new customers

Thu, Feb 13 2014

Ecotricity is offering electric vehicle drivers in the United Kingdom an lengthy incentive for using green energy: 1,000 miles of free fast charging per year. Called "Green Electricity + Car," the program will power customers' homes with renewable power allow them to charge their cars through Ecotricity's national network of fast chargers, which the company has named the Electric Highway. It makes complete sense for Ecotricity. "To get the greatest environmental benefit from an electric car, it needs to be charged using 100 percent green electricity from the wind and the sun – otherwise you're still powering it from dirty fossil fuels," wrote Dale Vince, founder of Ecotricity. Ecotricity, a UK-based producer of green energy, wants to bring fast charging to 90 percent of highway service stations around the UK in the near future and four fast chargers are installed per week under the Electric Highway campaign, the company says. Users can fast charge their EVs in 20-to-30 minutes. Ecotricity recently instituted a price freeze for all gas and electricity customers until April 1, reducing energy costs below what's being billed by the country's "Big Six" energy companies. Green Electricity + Car coincides with Volkswagen bringing its electric e-Up! to the British market. Volkswagen Group (UK) Limited imports VW, Audi, SEAT and Skoda brand vehicles and has signed a deal with Ecotricity as its official green energy supplier. Volkswagen Group customers purchasing an EV through one of its brands can take advantage of a new, reduced-cost Ecotricity tariff and a free smart meter installation. 08 February 2014 Green Electricity + Car Drivers of electric cars will receive 1,000 free miles every year with a new electricity tariff being launched by green energy company Ecotricity. Green Electricity + Car – will not only power customers homes with green energy but also their cars (either 100% electric or plug-in hybrids), plus they'll get free access to Ecotricity's national network of fast chargers[1] – the Electric Highway. This latest move comes after Ecotricity announced a price freeze for all gas and electricity customers until the end of winter (April 1st), making them cheaper[2] than the standard tariff of the Big Six energy companies.

Volkswagen to add 50k jobs by 2018

Thu, 04 Apr 2013

Volkswagen still has its eyes set on becoming the top global automaker by 2018, and to get there, it's apparently going to need more boots on the ground. Automotive News Europe is reporting that VW is looking to increase its staff by 50,000 over the next five years - an increase of nine percent - which does not include an increase in its US dealer network.
According to the report, a majority of the growth will come from China where the automaker is also looking to double its production capacity in the same time frame. The Volkswagen Group is already expected to rival General Motors for the top sales spot in China this year, and such a rapid expansion in the region could make a good springboard for sales increases in other countries.
