1972 Volkswagen Beetle. This is an original low mileage, good running and driving, Volkswagen Beetle. The VW is registered to me and I have an original Utah Title in my name. This VW spent most of its time is, dry (no salt on the roads), southern Utah. The original pan is solid, not dented, and is rust free. The engine was recently rebuilt, and runs excellent. The VW shifts smoothly and stops firmly. It has new tires and a new battery. The body is very solid and does not have any hidden repairs. All of the glass is good and the spare tire is in place. It is an original, 76,000 mile, Beetle. If you have any questions about my Beetle, please don't hesitate to give me a call. My home phone, which is still attach to our kitchen wall, has the following number (801) 745-0599. The VW is currently registered, insured, and has been safety inspected. These steps are necessary to register and drive a car in the State of Utah. The VW can be driven anywhere and comes with a repair manual and catalogs.
I want the new owner to know exactly what they are buying. With this in mind, I will nit pick the minor problems. First, mechanically, it is in excellent condition. The biggest problem with the VW is the interior. It has new door panels, but the original seats are tattered and need to be corrected. It has after market seat covers that are functional, but it needs new seat covers. The original paint is worn and there are minor dings that show surface rust discoloring. The running board on the passenger's side has a small dent by the rear fender. Again, please look closely at all of the photos. If you have less than 5 positive feedback in your ebay feedback score, please email me before bidding. I want this to be a good straightforward auction. Please look at my ebay feedback score. I highly value my 100% positive feedback on ebay, and I want the new owner to be satisfied with the Beetle. A $250. deposit is required within 24 hours of the auction closing - unless you contact me directly to make other arrangements. Good luck bidding. The reserve on the car is very low and well under the cars value. |

Volkswagen's 261-mpg hand-built XL1 headed for Geneva
Thu, 21 Feb 2013After years of rumors, development and testing, the Volkswagen XL1 is finally about to become a reality. The project that began life as a daring 1-Liter concept car in 2002, will finally get its production-ready curtain call at the Geneva Motor Show in just a few weeks.
As soon as it hits the streets, the two-seat XL1 will instantly become the most fuel-efficient and most aerodynamic production car in the world. The car uses a plug-in hybrid system to achieve mind-blowing consumption of just 0.9 liters of diesel fuel consumed every 100 kilometers (and average of roughly 261 miles per gallon). Plus, the XL1 can go up to 50 kilometers on its battery power alone. Coefficient of drag is a miniscule 0.189, thanks to a tiny frontal area and an obviously slippery shape.
XL1 power comes from a two-cylinder diesel motor connected to a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, while the 20 kW electric motor is fed by a lithium-ion battery. Both combine to give the XL1 performance figures that are, while not stirring, not shabby considering its extreme frugality: 0-62 miles per hour comes up in 12.7 seconds and top speed is nearly 146 mph.
Audi CVT suit settlement given green light, 64,000 cars covered
Mon, 07 Oct 2013Audi drivers, listen up. If you bought or leased a 2002-06 model-year A4 or A6 with a factory-installed Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) that failed, you may be entitled to reimbursement under a recently settled class-action lawsuit with corporate parent Volkswagen.
According to Automotive News, the settlement covers about 64,000 vehicles and alleges that "manufacturing and design problems caused the transmissions to fail and left owners stuck with repair costs." While the suit also argues Audi was aware of these issues (going so far as to hide that knowledge from consumers), the settlement stops short of acknowledging any wrongdoing by the German automaker.
Audi drivers are eligible for a cash reimbursement if their CVT repairs occurred within 10 years or 100,000 miles of the date they bought or leased the vehicle before June 19, 2013. To be eligible for compensation, drivers must submit a claim form (found here) with supporting documents by November 18.
VW readying new VR6 with forced induction
Fri, 27 Sep 2013Volkswagen built a stonking, narrow-angle V6 in the 1980s and 1990s that was found in three different generations of the Golf (their performance iterations, obviously), three generations of the Passat, the New Beetle, the Corrado and the Touareg, among other VWs, a spate of Audis, Seats, a Skoda, and even the Porsche Cayenne. It was a sad day when it was announced that it'd be put out to pasture.
Rejoice, though, fans of the venerable VR6, because Volkswagen has a new, modern variant in the works that, according to AutoWeek, features direct injection and can easily be fitted with forced induction. In fact, AW mentions Volkswagen insiders that claim this unit will spawn a production version of the twin-turbo V6 shown on the Design Vision GTI from this year's Wörthersee festival. That unit produced an epic 503 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque.
Don't expect a production unit with that level of power (although it would make a hardy RS4 powerplant), though. In reality, AutoWeek is suspecting anywhere from 340 to 450 horsepower from the new mill. When it arrives at an undisclosed date in the future, it'll likely be found in the Passat and Passat CC as well as the production version of the CrossBlue.
