HERE'S A REALLY RARE AND VERY CHARMING, RUST FREE LITTLE 1965 BUG ORDERED WITH A/C WHEN NEW.

I HAVE COLLECTED OLD CARS FOR THE LAST 44 YEARS AND I HAVE NEVER SEEN A 1965 BUG WITH ORIGINAL A/C BEFORE, NOT EVEN HERE IN SOUTHERN ARIZONA SO IT IS PROBABLY SUPER RARE.

AN ARIZONA CAR SINCE NEW IT WAS SOLD BY PIMA VW IN TUCSON AND I BOUGHT THE CAR 1 1/2 BLOCK FROM THERE RECENTLY!

THE VW BELONGED TO THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND IN THE MID 70'S THEIR DAUGHTER TOOK IT TO FLAGSTAFF IN NORTHERN ARIZONA TO ATTEND SCHOOL THERE.  BUT JUST A LITTLE OVER A YEAR LATE IT WAS BACK IN TUCSON AGAIN AND IT HAS BEEN THERE EVER SINCE UNTIL I BOUGHT THE CAR AND BROUGHT IT TO PHOENIX.  

THERE'S LOT'S OF DOCUMENTS WITH THE VW, IT SEEMS LIKE MOST WORK WAS DONE DURING THE 70'S, THE ENGINE WAS OVERHAULED, TRANS WAS REBUILT, THE CAR WAS PAINTED IN THE ORIGINAL COLOR ABOUT 30 YEARS AGO AND THE PAINT IS VERY THIN NOW.

I AM NOT SURE WHAT THE COLOR IS CALLED BUT IT IS A LIGHT BLUISH-GREEN COLOR, VERY NICE AND THE INTERIOR IS TUTONE BLUISH-GREEN. THE SEAT COVERS ARE VERY DRY, DOORPANELS ARE A LITTEL DRY BUT NOT TOO BAD, THE CARPET AND HEADLINER ARE DRY. I CALL IT RUST FREE BUT THERE IS VERY SOME RUST IN THE BATTERY TRAY, THAT IS IT.

ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO THE VW WAS SOLD TO THE SECOND OWNER AND HE SPENT $3000 ON MISC STUFF, A NEW CLUTCH ETC AND THE CAR HAS ONLY BEEN DRIVEN 6000 MILES SINCE THEN. THE LAST TIME IT WAS DRIVEN THE CABLE FOR THE ACCERATOR WAS STICKING SOME AND IT WAS PARKED AFTER THAT.

THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES FINE, TIRES ARE NEW BUT THE CABLE WAS NEVER REPLACED SO THAT SHOULD PROBABLY BE DONE. I DON'T KNOW IF THE A/C WORKS OR NOT, I WAS TOLD THE CAR DOES NOT REALLY HAVE ENOUGH POWER FOR THE YORK A/C COMPRESSOR SO THE BELT WAS REMOVED. I ASSUME A MODERN COMPRESSOR WOULD BE A HUGE UPGRADE. 

I HAD TO BUY THE VW TO GET A 1959 CITROEN I WANTED, IT WAS EITHER BOTH CARS OR NONE. I WILL TRY TO SELL THE VW AS IT SITS RIGHT NOW, IF IT DOES NOT SELL WE'LL GET A NEW INTERIOR KIT AND INSTALL IT AND PROBABLY ALSO REPLACE THE GAS CABLE AND SELL IT AFTER THAT IS DONE.

THE LIC PLATE DOES NOT BELONG TO THE CAR, I JUST PUT IT THERE BECAUSE IT LOOKS EMPTY WITHOUT A PLATE! IT CAN GO WITH THE CAR IF A BUYER WOULD LIKE BUT IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE VW.

THE VW IS AT MY HOME IN PHOENIX, ARIZONA. WE CAN ASSIST WITH ARRANGING TRANSPORT TO MOST ANYWHERE IN THE US OR EXPORT TO ANY COUNTRY.

PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING AND PLEEEEEEEEESE DO NOT BID UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING AND ABLE TO PAY, SHOULD YOU BE THE WINNING BIDDER.

A DEPOSIT OF $2000 IS DUE WITHIN 24 HOURS OF THE END OF THE AUCTION, THE BALANCE WITHIN 7 DAYS.

2013 Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

More Fun Than A Prius, Less Sensible Than A TDI
Let's have some fun, and do some math. We're talking pretty rudimentary stuff, multiplication and division, to figure out if the upcoming Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid can make a baseline case for itself against two very strong competitors in this segment. The competitors in question, at least for now, are two more Jettas: the diesel-drinking TDI and the fit-for-the-masses SE with VW's long-serving 2.5-liter engine.
To keep the equations clean and simple (hey, we're writers), we'll calculate based on the most flattering EPA miles per gallon stat from highway driving for all cars, assume a healthy 20,000 miles driven per year, and factor in today's average cost for the respective fuels these three require: diesel (TDI), regular (SE) and premium (Hybrid). We'll also start with the base prices for all models.

VW budget sub-brand stuck in limbo over VW standards, costs

Sat, 01 Mar 2014

Reports in October 2012 claimed Volkswagen had begun investigating the creation of its own budget brand. This came after having failed to purchase Malaysian car company Proton or produce a meaningful partnership with Suzuki, and after watching Renault-Nissan make piles of euro on Dacia and plot the return of Datsun.
For VW, more important than the question of what to call it was how to build it profitably and in a way that didn't damage the VW brand. According to a report in Autocar, a satisfactory answer still hasn't been found. The hurdle is how to hit "'necessary' quality and safety levels" at the price points needed to make the venture worthwhile. At the time of the 2012 report, German outlet Der Spiegel said VW was trying to get prices down to 6,000 to 8,000 euro ($7,784 to $10,379 US), about two thousand to four thousand euro under the price of the VW Up and in line with the cost of a 6,790-euro Dacia Sandero in Germany.
In March 2013, VW announced, "We want to bring a true budget car to the market in China in the foreseeable future," the most concrete move in that direction after years of planning to make a decision. Working with local Chinese maker FAW, it was predicted that the vehicle in question would appear around 2016, but as of November last year a final vote on it needed to wait until this year because "We are still working on the cost side" and profit possibilities for a car that "has to be durable, it has to be precise, it has to be safe."

2015 Volkswagen GTI [w/video]

The 911 Of Hot Hatches Takes The Compact Game To New Levels
North American car buyers get a bit of a slap in the face when it comes to delivery schedules for new the Volkswagen Golf and pumped-up GTI models. We'll just repeat the old chestnut: It's worth the wait... even though it still stinks. This time around, Western Europe is taking deliveries of the new Golf as we speak, and GTI deliveries start between May and July. North America doesn't get the Mk7 Golf or GTI until about July of 2014.
So we approached our first drive of the new GTI with this chip on our shoulder: "You're making us wait? Well, then at least give us the exact car we'll be able to buy. No compromises, mein freund." And so it was that we extracted nearly all of our drive impressions from behind the wheel of what, for the United States, will technically be a model year 2015 two-door Volkswagen Golf GTI Performance with the standard six-speed manual.
