2001 Volkswagen, New Beetle, Diesel, 5 Speed, Turbo, Royal Blue



CONDITION:  

This car needs some TLC.  It has been in the same family since brand new which is a plus.  I have all the work ever done to it if needed.  Right now, it needs a mechanic and some work to pass inspection.  I got quoted a little over $900 and research confirms between $700 & $950 (see below for research source). This is a great car for a mechanic or someone that wants to flip it for a higher price.  It has some rust spots and the last owner (me) DID SMOKE.  A car detail usually takes care of this.  ALSO NOTE> we will be cleaning out this car quite thoroughly.  I know how I would want to receive a car even used, and I wouldn't be pleased to get it like it is in the pics.  I will be vacuuming and wiping down completely.  It needs a new front right tire as well.

As stated above: Small rust spots on hood (see image).  Car needs work to pass inspection, catalytic converter ($700-$900, see description for details and source), that's why starting auction so low. Its still a steal even at the buy it now for $1800 because its diesel! YOU SAVE SO MUCH MONEY IN GAS!  contact me for details.THIS CAR IS WORTH IT!   ECONOMY CAR!  SERIOUS GAS SAVER!  I am only selling it because I got a new car as a Christmas gift.  Car has been turned on and moved several times since being parked.

here is the information I got:

FEATURES:

Obviously the best features is the gas mileage,  at approximately 43 mpg. AMAZING! That is my biggest regret with my new Audi.  I will never get the gas mileage like I did with this bug!

HISTORY:

As stated above, my father owned it before me since 2001 and I had it for about 2 years.  It has always been in our family since it came off the lot, hence all the records for any work done.  It was purchased from Tracy Volkswagen out of Hyannis, MA  in 2001.

Witness this insane 736-hp VW Golf immolate its front tires

Mon, 11 Mar 2013

There's torque steer and then there's what we'll from now on dub "The Boba," as in Boba Kettler. The German tuner has a way with the Volkswagen Golf, and the MkI example you see above has been touched with 736 horsepower - that's right, 96 more ponies than a new SRT Viper, all trying to get to ground through those two front wheels.
The 2.0-liter, 16-valve engine has an 8,800 rpm redline and is aided by a Garrett GTX3582R turbocharger shoving 50 psi through the internals. Other upgrades include a new ECU (natch) and a six-speed 'box among other treats. The rubber is Toyo R888s - street-legal competition tires. The result is enough smoke for three Chinese New Years when the lights go green. Indeed, the standing start isn't its forte, but it can apparently get from 62 miles per hour to 124 mph in five seconds.
Watch it go in the video below. And know that this isn't even Boba's best work; he's got a 900-hp MkII Golf that'll do 0-62 mph in 2.3 seconds.

VW updates Scirocco with revised styling, new engines

Sun, 16 Feb 2014

The Scirocco is undoubtedly one of the better-looking models in the Volkswagen lineup, but introduced back in 2008, it's now been on the market - some markets, anyway - for the better part of six years. VW is said to have an all-new replacement in the works, but before that arrives, the German automaker has announced a facelifted version with revised styling and a new engine lineup.
Set to be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show next month, the new Scirocco benefits from updated styling front and rear, high-tech exterior lighting, a revised cabin space with some throwback retro touches, some new technologies and, of course, an array of fresh wheel options ranging from 17 to 19 inches.
The updated Scirocco will be offered with a wide array of engines right from the get-go, including four gasoline options and two diesels, spanning from 125 horsepower all the way up to the 280-hp Scirocco R. The 2014 model hits European showrooms in August, but unfortunately isn't any more likely to make the transatlantic voyage Stateside than the version it replaces. Still interested? There's plenty to see in the high-res image gallery above and details in the press release below.

Volkswagen Group names Paefgen head of classics program

Tue, 04 Oct 2011

You may remember the name Franz-Josef Paefgen. Until recently, the German engineer and executive was head of both Bentley and Bugatti. Before that he was chief executive of Audi, after working for several years at Ford. He technically "retired" earlier this year, but like the cars he helped create, an executive like Paefgen could never really retire. So it should come as little surprise that the Volkswagen Group has named Dr. Paefgen head of its Classic program.
In his new capacity, Paefgen will oversee the historic automobile activities of the entire VW Group, including those of Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda, Audi, Lamborghini, and of course Bentley and Bugatti. It strikes us as a suitable semi-retirement for the man responsible in no small part for the Bugatti Veyron and Bentley Mulsanne, to name just two, and who was decorated in 2006 by the ACO as the "Spirit of Le Mans" for his contribution to endurance racing. Read the official announcement after the break.
