I have for sale a 1993 Volkswagen Cabriolet triple white convertible. This is a nice little car. It has a peppy 4 cylinder engine, automatic transmission, power steering and brakes. It also has a/c (which works), CD Player (installed properly), and power windows (which also work). It runs and drives very good. The engine sounds good, with no knocks or smoke. The transmission shifts very smoothly. The brakes are good. The tires are good. The paint looks good. This is a very rust free car. The top is good, and so is the inner headliner. The interior is very nice. It still has the original owners manual with it. This is a great, inexpensive toy to have a lot of fun with. It, of course, is not perfect, just a nice looking, and driving, cheap toy to play with. It does have a couple of the center caps missing. It has a couple of small dings on the rear quarter panel (nothing that detracts from the good looks of the car), but all in all it is a very nice looking car. It is a lot nicer than most of the ones that I have looked at in our area that cost a lot more money than this one. If you are looking for a cheap collector car to play with, this is the one. The Cabriolet's are getting more rare everyday. For the price that you can buy it for, you will absolutely love it. This car has a very low reserve for a decent Cabriolet. If you would like to set up an appointment to see it, or for any questions that you may have, you may call or text me @ 812 499-0694. The car is available to be seen PRIOR to bidding. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time, as I would entertain buy it now offers. If you are the winning bidder, I will need a $500.00 non-refundable deposit within 48 hours of the auction end, and the remainder of the payment within 7 days of auction end. The payment needs to be in the form of cash, cashier's check, or bank transfer. The car and title will only be released once funds have cleared. If you are looking for an inexpensive, fun, little collector car, this is the one for you. Good luck, and happy bidding.

Volkswagen looking to acquire Proton, Lotus?
Thu, 26 Jul 2012Let's say you're an automaker bent on world domination looking to grow your sales. That's going to have you looking at Asian markets, because that's where some of the biggest growth has been, and that's exactly what Volkswagen is doing as it considers making another run at Malaysia's Proton.
Reuters reports that Volkswagen is interested in at least a partial stake, if not a controlling interest in Lotus-parent Proton as a way to continue a production presence in the region without having to build its own factory.
Volkswagen already builds the Passat in a DRB-HICOM facility in Pekan, Malaysia, and plans are in place to build the Jetta and Polo there, as well. With both southeast Asia and its relationship with Proton figuring so importantly in Volkswagen's plans for expansion, buying into Proton can help ensure stability. Volkswagen is being tight-lipped about the whole idea, but CEO Martin Winterkorn did recently say, "it's our clear goal to continue the successful (expansion) course of past years with great dynamics and stability," which sounds an awful lot like deals are on the table to smooth the path to further growth.
Brazil contemplates safety exemption for VW Kombi as it goes out of production today [w/poll]
Tue, 31 Dec 2013Brazil: the country of carnivals, indescribable beauty adjacent to abject poverty, Ayrton Senna and old Volkswagen models. Only they're not old - they're new, they're just based on old designs. The original Beetle continued production there long after it had been phased out elsewhere, but the original Kombi van has lasted much longer. That ends today, however, with the iconic VW Microbus ambling out of production on the last day of 2013.
VW kept making the van in Brazil with the original air-cooled 1.2-liter boxer four until 2005, after which the original design was updated with a 1.4-liter water-cooled engine. Today, however, it ultimately falls prey to safety regulations that mandate that all vehicles - no matter how old their design - need to have airbags and ABS, forcing Volkswagen do Brasil to cease production of the Microbus after a 56-year production run. But the latest word is that the Kombi (as it's presently known) could get a stay of execution - or at least a resurrection in short order.
According to reports, the Brazilian government is looking into granting the Type 2 Microbus an exemption from said safety regulations, reasoning that the van was designed long before the advent of airbags and ABS. If the measure goes through, the Kombi Last Edition (pictured above) could prove not to be the last at all. So what do you think, should the Microbus get an exemption from Brazilian safety regulations for nostalgia's sake? Vote in our poll below, then have your say in Comments.
Former Porsche boss Wiedeking won't face criminal charges over VW bid
Mon, 28 Apr 2014Hedge fund managers have been suing Porsche for years now, alleging that the car company lied about its intentions during its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen, a gambit that caused them billion in losses. Over the same period, authorities in Stuttgart built a criminal case against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above, left) and Chief Financial Officer Holger Härter (right), filing charges in December 2012. When those fund plaintiffs lost their most recent court case, one of the dimming lights in the dark and receding tunnel was that the criminal investigation might unearth more evidence about Porsche's actions that could help the plaintiffs in pending litigation.
Bloomberg reports that another light has gone out, though, with a Stuttgart court dismissing the market manipulation case before going to trial because, as a court spokesperson said, "there wasn't enough evidence backing up the charges." When prosecutors get the files back from the court, they have a week to decide to refile, but unless they've been sandbagging evidence that could bolster the case, the only lights at the end of the tunnel will be those welcoming Wiedeking and Härter back to the world of legally unencumbered men.
