2002 VW Passat. Car runs and drives and has been a daily driver but it does need some work to be 100%. This is a great car for someone to drive and fix as they go along. Here is the deal. Over the last few weeks I decided to sell the car and buy a new one. This car has been good but it needs more work than I'd like to get into and I just want a new car so its time for it to go. I'm ready to buy, like buy now.....this weekend. SO I need this sold, preferably by this weekend and its priced as such.

Pwr and Heated seats

Pwr Windows and locks with keyless entry

Runs and drives. Engine is strong and transmission shifts good, no slipping. Sometimes shifts a little funny but nothing that seems too concerning. Interior is clean and consistent with the age. Leather heated seats are in great condition. Body is solid with no rust and the paint shines nice. Does have a few dings and some paint work to the hood and both fenders. The paint work looks ok but the color doesn't match 100%. The damage was from a deer. Hood and one fender were damaged. No air bag deployment.

The tires are decent, probably needs two right away, it has a vibration at highway speeds that seems to be coming from the rear tire. Needs rear brakes and rotors, The front brakes and rotors are new. Drivers side door lock only works with the key. And just yesterday we noticed an oil leak, which at best glance appears to be coming from the oil pan, looks to have a very small crack in the pan. The check engine light is on. A few of the Radio knobs are missing. The A/C unit isn't blowing very cold but who needs that this time of the year.

Recent new parts are both front exhaust pipes and 02 sensors, Belt and frt brakes and rotors.

Its still a Passat!. A great car that just needs some work, perfect for a handy person to fix up.

The Car is located in Germantown TN. Clear PA title in hand ready to txfr, the car is from PA. Paypal deposit of $200 due within 24hrs of auction end. Cash balance due by Saturday 2/1. I would like the pick up to be on Fri or sat next week. This works best because its when I get my other car.

European jury picks finalists for 2015 Car of the Year

Tue, Dec 16 2014

There are countless Car of the Year awards handed out each year, and naturally, Europe has its own way of doing things. Every year, a panel of jurists representing seven publications in seven different languages and seven different countries get together to name their joint Car of the Year. The panel released a list of 32 candidates back in July, and it has now whittled that list down to seven nominees. The list consists of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, the Citroen C4 Cactus (shown), the Ford Mondeo, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Nissan Qashqai, the Renault Twingo and the Volkswagen Passat. Of those seven, only two are available in the US – those being the Mondeo (sold Stateside as the Fusion) and the C-Class. The Passat is an entirely different model in North America, the Qashqai isn't offered here, Citroen and Renault don't even participate in our market and the BMW 2 Series is represented here only by the completely different coupe and convertible. Expect the one and only recipient of the 2015 Car of the Year award to be announced at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, and while you're waiting, you can place your guesses for the eventual winner in Comments.

Jay Leno brings a rotary-powered VW Beetle to the garage

Mon, Aug 1 2016

It takes something really unique or inventive to pique Jay Leno's interest. His show, Jay Leno's Garage, has featured everything from concours-worthy classics to completely custom, home-built machinery. How do you get Leno to feature one of more than 20 million Beetles on his program? Stick a turbocharged rotary engine under the hood. The Beetle's owner, Mario Markakis, swapped the car's stock flat four-cylinder for the Wankel engine from a 1990 Mazda RX-7 Series 5 Turbo. The engine's 250 horsepower are fed through a reinforced version of the Beetle's stock four-speed transmission. That's about five times the original engine's output. It works well, with the car putting down some impressive times at the drag strip. Markakis did most of the work to the Beetle in his garage. In addition to the engine swap, he's modified the car's brakes, suspension, and interior. Check out the video to hear all the details of this custom Wankel-powered Volkswagen.

UAW tactics called into question at VW's TN plant

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

The United Auto Workers is in hot water with some of the very workers it is trying to unionize at Volkswagen's Chattanooga assembly plant. According to The Tennessean, eight Volkswagen factory workers have filed complaints against the UAW with the National Labor Relations Board, claiming the union "misled or coerced" them into formally asking for union representation.
The UAW has instituted a major push at the Chattanooga plant to represent the 2,500 hourly laborers that build the VW Passat by using what's called a card-check process. The tactic is opposed by the National Right to Work Legal Defense foundation, the group representing the workers. The card-check process demands that a company recognize a union that obtains the signatures of more than half its workforce, according to The Tennessean. This tactic is in contrast to the more traditional route, which sees employees vote on union representation.
The workers filing the complaint claim that the UAW told them the cards merely called for a secret ballot, rather than an outright demand for union representation. Workers also allege that the UAW has made it overly difficult to reclaim their signed cards, some of which were signed so long ago that they have been rendered invalid. Although the cards can force a company's hand, federal law still allows the company to ask for a secret ballot before yielding to unionized workers.
