 I am selling my 2001 VW Jetta GLX manual transmission car. It has ~53,000 miles and is in perfect mechanical order. I have taken great care of this car over the years and it is so much fun to drive. Anything that needed to be done in terms of repair and routine maintenance was done, mostly by the dealer, although I have occasionally had reputable private mechanics do some work where necessary. The vehicle is in great shape. The only reason I am getting rid of it now is because my grandfather decided that he does not want to drive his car anymore (he's 96 years old) and has offered me his vehicle at a non-refusable price. My Jetta has no mechanical or structural problems, it runs tight, quiet, and smoothly, and if you want to have your mechanic inspect it I am sure s/he will find no problems. I just put great new Pirelli tires on it last year!

I am the only owner of this vehicle. Nobody ever smokes in it. I only let my dog in it once or twice on an emergency basis. When people get into the car, they usually compliment me on it.

Before posting this ad, I took the car into the shop to make sure everything is in good shape. Here are the only blemishes that I know about: (a) the rubber piece on the antenna has given way over the years and will need replacing if it bothers you (however, the dealer assures me that this is a cosmetic issue only), (b) one of the little VW emblems on the wheels is missing (again, this is a cosmetic issue only), (c) there is a serpentine belt that might need replacing soon according to my mechanic, (d) a few years back someone bumped into the back of this car while it was parked but the cosmetic damage was fixed (there was no structural damage, the repairs were made, and you would not have noticed unless I said something), (e) the instrument cluster has a fancy LCD computer which does not work anymore, and (f) there are some minor paint nicks on the hood which, again, are not really noticeable unless you are looking. The LCD computer issue happened during the 3rd or 4th year of ownership, but has not affected my love of this car or it's function. I would have fixed it, although the dealer tells me that it is hugely expensive to repair because the entire instrument cluster would have to be replaced.

If you are interested, please do not hesitate to contact me with questions, or if you want to see more pictures. Happy Bidding!

Volkswagen Golf R 400 Concept is a 201-mph hot hatch

Sun, 20 Apr 2014

This, friends, is what happens when you shoehorn 395 horsepower into a Golf. You get a three-door hatch that will happily scurry to 62 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 201 mph. Oh yes, we like you, Golf R 400 Concept.
As we explained in our original post, the R 400 is the long-awaited successor to bonkers Golf creations like the GTI W12 from 2007 and, more recently, the Design Vision GTI. It's powered by the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder found in a number of Volkswagen (and Audi, SEAT and Skoda) products, although it's been heavily massaged to pump out 332 pound-feet of torque along side its amplified horsepower.
Naturally, it's been lowered and now rides on 19-inch wheels. Outside of those changes, though, mums the word on suspension and chassis enhancements. While this is a bummer, the striking looks of the Golf R 400 more than make up for it.

Toyota reclaims global sales crown, GM and VW not far behind

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

TheDetroitBureau.com reports Toyota has retaken the global sales crown. The Japanese automaker turned out 9.75 million vehicles last year, putting it just ahead of General Motors, with 9.29 million vehicles. Volkswagen, meanwhile, filled out the podium by building 9.1 million units in 2012.
Still, Toyota numbers fell just below projections the automaker made earlier in the year, due largely to a fierce territorial dispute between Japan and China that has seen mainland buyers shun Japanese goods. But the news marks a substantial comeback for Toyota. The company fell to third place in the global production race in 2011 after tragic earthquake and tsunami caused several plant closures.
In Japan, Toyota enjoyed a sales increase of 35 percent over the previous year, while the company's worldwide sales jumped by 23 percent thanks in part to new additions to the Prius line. The automaker is forecasting yet another increase for 2013, with the company projecting to reach 9.91 million units this year. Neither Volkswagen nor GM have released their own projections just yet.

European car sales up 8% in February

Sat, 22 Mar 2014

Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.
