Just email me at: kalynkhhurrington@ukbig.com . This is an excellent condition early 1969 VW Karmann Ghia convertible with the rare Automatic Stickshift
transmission. The Ghia drives and shifts flawlessly. This is a solid body car and is originally from southern
California where it spent the majority of its life except for the last few years which were in S. Carolina. I
purchased the car in 2014 and I had the car totally gone over mechanically including new brake shoes in the rear,
new brake master cylinder, new tires, rebuilt engine with new seals including the automatic transmission, replaced
all 4 CV joints, got speedometer and odometer working, new Stayfast canvas convertible top w /headliner and boot,
along with some additional maintenance and repairs. It is not the original engine. The horn does not work and the
interior dash lights do not work. All exterior lights work correctly - brakes, brights, hazard, parking, license
plate, turn signals, back-up, etc. The interior was re-done by a previous owner and it has nice light blue piping.
The interior is in excellent condition. The body has been repainted once, as far as we know, and it is in excellent
condition. The car is clean and only has a few dings or scrapes. One dent is on the front bumper. These are shown
in the photos. The automatic stickshift transmission works fine. It has reverse, low, first and second. There is no
clutch. To switch from first to second you just lift off of the gas pedal, shift, then push the gas pedal. When we
received the car the speedometer and odometer were not working. They are both working now but the odometer reading
is not correct and we have no way of knowing the correct mileage. When we purchased the car the odometer read
47,019 and the previous owner thought she had not put 10,000 miles on it and we probably haven't put 500 miles on
it. The clock is working but not keeping perfect time. The vintage Blaupunkt radio is still there, but not working.
There is an under dash Blaupunkt radio with a cassette player in the vehicle but the radio stations often don't
come in well. It has a new speaker for when the radio stations do come in well or if you are using a cassette. I
just got the car the way I wanted it when I found a car that I wanted more! Non-smoking home. Feel free to ask
questions before you buy! You will be responsible for pick up of the vehicle or arranging for transport.

VW LogBox and Race App performance data logger for R models [w/video]

Tue, Dec 30 2014

Now that it's got a 300-horsepower Golf R to brag about, Volkswagen wants you to be able to brag about it accurately with the LogBox and Race App performance data logging combo. Plug the LogBox into your VW's OBD II port and it sends data over BlueTooth to the Race App, measuring variables like acceleration, distance, G-force and engine performance. If you're on a circuit, it uses Google Maps to make a map of the track, and you can record live video in-app to match with the data. Volkswagen says the LogBox will be available for R models and "a range of further Volkswagen cars," so you'll want to hit up your dealer with questions before ordering. It's available from the VW accessories store for 299 euros ($365 US), but right now the free app is only available in German, in the German-language iTunes and Google Play store. We imagine that will be corrected shortly; in the meantime, the video can show you how it works.

Andretti Autosport partners with Volkswagen for Global Rallycross season

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Michael Andretti and Volkswagen have both been involved in Global Rallycross for a couple of years, but not together. Andretti Motorsports Marketing organized the final round of the 2012 GRC series in Las Vegas, and there were rumors then that Andretti was going to get in. Around the same time there were news reports that Volkswagen was preparing a 600-hp Polo Mk5 to race in the SuperCar class; the photo above is racer Anton Marklund in his privateer Marklund Motorsports Polo at the 2013 X-Games round in Los Angeles.
Now it's official: Andretti Autosport will campaign the 2014 GRC season with VWs. That's all that's been said for now, Andretti being busy at the moment launching four entries for IndyCar, two for Indy Lights and two for Pro Mazda. We have a feeling we'll be seeing the MkVII Golf involved, but the cars and the driver lineup will be presented at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6.
