I am the 2nd owner, this car is originally from Florida. All wheel drive system is amazing in the snow and wet. Runs and drives as it should. This car has been babied since new and always garaged. No rust, very clean as you would expect from such a low mileage car. Regular oil changes always with VW spec Total Synthetic.  Brakes have about 15,000 miles on them, were replaced with new rotors and ceramic pads. JVC head-unit with i-pod connection run into the center console. Aftermarket front mats. Snow tires are currently mounted and are like new, have about five to six thousand miles on them. Comes with a car cover from original owner, Bentley manual, and code reader.  Euro plate not included. Full disclosure: recently had new torque converter with seal installed at VW dealership to correct a problem inherent to all volkswagen 4motion and Audi quattros of this era that usually was fixed under drive train warranty. This car has such low miles that it ran out of warranty before the problem occurred. Also, the check engine light is intermittent.  The passenger side variable valve timing servo is throwing the code. I had my dealership diagnose, and the computer exercised the servo and found that it was functioning. I have heard of people running sea foam in the crankcase before an oil change to get rid of any small amount of sludge that may be sticking in the servo. This has not affected drive-ability at all.  There are two small sags in the headliner that are shown in the pictures, this is unfortunately common on VW's.  Please remember that if you bid and win the auction, you will be expected to complete the transaction. I reserve the right to end this auction early. Please no zero feedback bidders.  Feel free to call or email with any questions.  231-eight eight one- Five 038.  Thank you for looking and happy bidding!

Compact SUV Comparison: Specs, pics and reviews of every brand's crossover

Wed, Jul 25 2018

Honda CR-V vs Toyota RAV4. Chevy Equinox vs Ford Escape. Mazda CX-5 vs Subaru Forester. Whichever combinations of compact crossover SUV you're considering, there's probably a comparison test or chart out there to read. Heck, you can even create a three-car comparison yourself here at Autoblog. However, if you want a bunch of that information all in one convenient place, well, here it is. Our mega comparison of specs, features and photos of compact SUV entries from every mainstream manufacturer that sells them. That includes the 2018 Chevrolet Equinox, 2018 Ford Escape, 2018 GMC Terrain, 2018 Honda CR-V, 2018 Hyundai Tucson, 2019 Jeep Cherokee (it's already on sale with notable changes from 2018), 2018 Jeep Compass, 2018 Kia Sportage, 2018 Mazda CX-5, 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross (none of Mitsu's SUVs are perfect fits for this segment, so we deemed the MEC the most competitive fit), 2018 Nissan Rogue, 2018 Subaru Forester, 2018 Toyota RAV4 and 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan. We can update this comparison as more information about 2019 models is released, most notably the Forester and RAV4. Now, there are certainly some models that are smaller (Nissan Rogue Sport) or larger (Kia Sorento) that could also be considered, but we figured it was wise to stick with those in this sweet spot of comparable size and price. We also included links to Autoblog reviews, buying guides and smaller comparisons. Engines and Transmissions With rare exception, this segment features four-cylinder power. Sometimes it's turbocharged, often its not, but standard engine outputs are generally in the same ballpark. Therefore, we'd recommend focusing on torque output, as it's what will make a difference around town or when passing, and weighing that versus fuel economy (the Chevy Equinox, GMC Terrain, Honda CR-V and Mazda CX-5 make particularly strong cases in this regard). Many drivers aren't too fond of continuously variable transmissions (CVT), either, so that's another thing to consider and note during a test drive. As you can see, several models are available with performance upgrades. Besides the Jeep Cherokee's available V6, all are more powerful turbocharged four-cylinder engines. The exception to this would be the Honda CR-V and Ford Escape, as their 1.5-liter turbo engines don't prioritize performance. Instead, they serve as overall upgrades to the base naturally aspirated engines standard on only their base trim levels (CR-V LX and Escape S).

Volkswagen taps Porsche chief for board

Mon, Feb 23 2015

Matthias Mueller was promoted to the top position at Porsche in 2010 after a successful stint of developing model lines during his 36 years with the company, mainly at Audi. Having shown the same prowess while overseeing Porsche for the past five years, German outlet Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung reports that Mueller will be promoted to the management board of the Volkswagen Group, according to a leaked copy of an agenda for the meeting. It's said that a new spot is being created for him, one that will put him in charge of "overseeing cooperation" among Audi, Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini, and Porsche. While other group executives are known to hold positions on the board and with brands, or across brands, it isn't clear yet whether Mueller will keep his spot at the CEO of Porsche after the promotion. One thing that is certain is the 61-year-old Mueller doesn't see himself in line for Volkswagen Group CEO Martin Winterkorn's job in 2016, having told FAZ this month, "It's no solution to put a 63-year-old at the head of Volkswagen."
