Its my clean title 1984 maroon Volkswagen 1.6 Turbo Diesel Jetta, no not the common diesel rabbit, very well maintained. It has 224,xxx original miles and the odometer still works, however the clock doesn't lol. The car is mechanically sound, I bought it off a vw enthusiast fireman last year. The key point of this car is that it's cheap to fill up and gets LITERALLY 43-45 MPG...300+ miles on a full tank. The registration is cheap too and no worries about smog because Diesels past a certain year aren't required to be smogged. its a really cheap and reliable car that comes with a tons of cool stuff...
The Maintenance.
Recently in the past 10,000 miles I redid the front brakes, front wheel bearings, brake booster, clutch, suspension (coilovers), and changed the oil (6/8/13)
The Extras(can be worked into the deal):
I bought a set of the E-Code European headlights from a guy in germany off of vortex. The Fenders are rolled and pulled, but you can't tell because of the fender flares :) I also tucked the front bumpers because I hated the diving board style. Also I have a MK1 GTI front valance in black that I've been meaning to pop back on, but I just don't have the time.
The Reason:
I just got a better job a few weeks ago so I decided to buy another car, particularly an E30. So I have no real use for the Jetta anymore. It'll be sad to let it go, but it's been a great car to me. It's got plenty of character and life left in it.
The Bads:
No rips inside but some of the stitching has come undone in the rear seat headrests but that is it, the interior is in pretty good shape for an 1984 VW
Couple of dings thanks to college parking idiots.
The passenger side window was broken into in such a weird way by crackheads in SF's tenderloins, who also stole a broken radio from it, but left the speakers which still work. They chipped the paint on the door pillar but its okay.
The paint isnt great, its BARELY starting to fade on the hood, but its not noticeable
It has no radio at the moment, But I have another deck for it, just not hooked up.
AC needs recharge
Heres a video you can see the CONDITION OF THE PAINT WHEN ITS NOT WAXED LIKE IT IS IN THE PICTURES ON THE AD and the rear seat unseamed, and in the video it has the STOCK HEADLIGHTS which i can sell the car WITH for a LOWER price. The PAINT LOOKS BETTER IN PERSON lol.

Porsche board members facing another ˆ1.8B lawsuit over VW takeover bid
Mon, 03 Feb 2014Back in 2008, Porsche got the bright idea that it could take over Volkswagen in the midst of the worst economic slump since the Great Depression. Ignoring that this was a catastrophic move for the Stuttgart sports car manufacturer that that eventually resulted in it nearly going bankrupt and eventually being taken over by the same company it sought to control, the aftermath has left Porsche Chairman Wolfgang Porsche and board member Ferdinand Piëch in the crosshairs of seven hedge funds that lost out during the takeover and are now seeking €1.8 billion - $2.43 billion US - in damages from the two execs, according to the BBC.
See, investors bet on Volkswagen's share price going down, partially because Porsche said it wasn't going to attempt a takeover. But Porsche was attempting to take over VW, having bought up nearly 75-percent of VW's publicly traded shares. When word broke that Porsche owned nearly three-quarters of VW (which indicated an imminent takeover attempt), rather than go down like the hedge funds bet it would, VW's share price skyrocketed to over 1,000 euros per share, according to Reuters.
Naturally, when you bet that a company's share price is going to drop and it in turn (temporarily) becomes the world's most valuable company, you lose a lot of money, unless you're able to buy up shares before prices jump too much. This led to a squeeze on the stock, which the hedge funds accuse Porsche and Piëch (who are both members of the Porsche family and supervisory board) of organizing.
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 Super Bowl teaser with Jimmy Cliff is like a less-mean Tosh.0 Web Redemption
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Reggae super-duper-star and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Jimmy Cliff has been using music to send positive vibes out into the universe for decades now, so its no surprise that his message on behalf of Volkswagen is one of redemption.
Dubbed Sunny Side, this web-spot is VW's warmup of sorts for what promises to be another blockbuster year in the world of Super Bowl commercials. Without giving away the game, the euphonious commercial sees Cliff opening his arms and his heart to some YouTube 'celebrities' that might see courser treatment from the likes of Tosh.0, for instance. We can't help but be reminded of Coca-Cola's legendary 1971 Hilltop spot with the "I'd like to buy the world a Coke" lyric, too.
Enjoy the pre-Super Bowl VW spot below, and don't forget to pay it forward... your karma will thank you. For those of you that just can't get enough of commercial-making magic, we've included a "making-of" video, as well.
