2003 Vw Jetta Vr6 2.8l - Arizona Car - 6 Spd Manual on 2040-cars

Year:2003 Mileage:130800
Location:

Glendale, Arizona, United States

Glendale, Arizona, United States

We are selling our 2003 Volkswagen Jetta VR6 2.8L, 6 spd manual with 130k miles on it.  The vehicle is not running.  It looks as though it blew the head gasket.  It has new tires and a new battery not even a month old.  The radio has been removed and you can install whatever sound system you would like.

This is an Arizona car, which are highly desirable since we don’t go through the harsh winters - salted roads, rust and corrosion issues are not a problem for us. 

The Jetta is black with a black interior, it is a very sharp car and in good condition considering its age.

I’m selling it as is and giving the opportunity for someone to do the repairs necessary to end up with a really nice car at a good deal.  The current book value is $5900 and I have included an image of the book sheet for you to verify.  

I’ve got many projects that I want to get to and this VW is down my list of priorities right now.  Not to mention its 100+ degrees and I really don’t want to do the repairs in this heat.  If it does not sell now I’m okay with keeping it and doing the repairs when the weather cools off.   This is an incredible opportunity for you to own a highly desirable AZ car at a fraction of it's actual value.

Please expect to either replace the head with a rebuilt one or rebuilding the current head – but it would be foolish not to do this since it will be off anyways.  My assumption at this point, not having the motor torn down, is that the head, head gasket and new fluids should get this beautiful car back on the road.  Again, this is an assumption since I have not taken the topside of this motor a part yet to verify exactly what is necessary.  Regardless, at this low reserve price, whatever is necessary even up to replacing the entire motor will leave you in a good position value wise to what you are paying now.   

There are your typical dings & scratches which are to be expected with a vehicle of this age.  There is a tear in the drivers seat which I have shown in the pictures.  Please understand, this is a 2003 vehicle and you should expect the typical wear and tear that you would see on a car that's 11 years old.  If you need more pictures, please ask for them.  If you need more information about the car, please ask before you bid.

Please understand that you are responsible for shipping this car in its present non-running condition.  You need to make arrangements with your transportation company and make them aware of this. 

The Jetta is advertised locally and I do reserve the right to sell it outside of this auction at any time and cancel this auction.

A $500 deposit is required within 24 hours of completion of this auction.  The balance can easily be handled with a bank wire transfer, a certified bank cashiers check or in cash if you live local and plan on picking it up yourself.  The vehicle must be paid for in full within 7 days of the completed auction and before the vehicle will be released to its new owner.

2013 Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition brings exclusivity to the granddaddy of hot hatches

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

The Volkswagen booth at this year's Chicago Auto Show was filled with various special edition models of the Beetle and GTI. In addition to the GTI Wolfsburg Edition, the Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition helps to wrap up the 2013 model year as VW readies the all-new MkVII Golf next year.
Only 3,000 of the GTI Driver's Edition models will be produced in four-door body style only, and the available color palette will be limited to just Candy White, Carbon Steel Gray and Deep Black. The package will come standard with the GTI's Sunroof and Navigation package, and it will add unique features such as the 18-inch "Laguna" wheels, a golf-ball shift knob, partial leather seats and red-stitching on the carpeted floor mats. Buyers of this package will also get a certificate of authenticity and some GTI swag such as a hat, keychain and parking sign.
Starting price for the 2013 Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition is $29,695 with the six-speed manual and $30,795 if you choose the DSG - both prices exclude destination charges.

Volkswagen Group, BMW Z4 top Total Value Awards by Strategic Vision

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

It was just nine months ago that Strategic Vision announced its 2011 Total Value Awards, but you don't have to wait until next year for the 2012 awards. The Volkswagen Group keeps its lead as the number one brand, with seven products taking top category spots: Golf, Jetta Wagon, CC, Eos and Audi A3 Wagon, Q5 and Q7. Strategic Vision says "true innovation" - "rich and impactful, intuitive, motivational, in-depth and is able to trigger description by the user in great specificity" - is the open secret of the brands with the strongest showings. Results are culled from 77,153 owners covering more than 350 new cars bought between September of 2011 and 2012 ranked in the Total Value Index (TVI).
Other notable winners are Hyundai-Kia following VW in the brand category and having the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Sorento among category winners, the BMW Z4 taking the premium roadster category and the highest overall score of any vehicle, the Chevrolet Volt continuing to gather silverware in the Special Category, nabbing the second-highest score of all and representative of "nearly perfect innovation," and Chrysler and Dodge being most improved.
Check out the press release below for your day's dose of jargon and all the winners.

Volkswagen Golf Wagon caught completely uncovered

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

Without a lot of information to go with them, our camera-toting spies have captured some new images of a Volkswagen Golf wagon variant that is almost completely undisguised. In fact, the one piece of camouflage on the tidy wagon would probably have gone unnoticed to most casual viewers. Look closely at the rear three-quarter view of the car and you'll notice that the apparent taillight clusters are actually fakes - the outline of the real units is faintly visible behind the blue bodywork and the sticker-like fake taillights.
It's a good guess then, that this Golf wagon (called a Golf Kombi by our spy photographer) is a prototype that's pretty far along in the development cycle for Volkswagen. We can't be sure what impact this will have on the company's small wagon offering here in the US, but we'd be pretty surprised if something very like this didn't end up as the next Jetta SportWagen. We might well have more information on that front, after we visit Geneva next week.
