2004 Vw Passat W8 4motion Sedan. Excellent Condition! on 2040-cars
Spring Grove, Illinois, United States
|
It is with a heavy heart that I am forced to sell my first W8. I purchased the vehicle from a husband and wife in Vermont back in 2010. The vehicle had ~50,000 miles on it at the time and the wife only drove the car a few miles back and forth to work every day. Her husband was a construction worker with extreme attention to detail in his house, cars, and yard. In the four years that have gone by since then, I have put almost another 50,000 miles on the vehicle and fell in love with everything about the W8 motor as I got to drive it more and more. It should be made clear that the only reason I am selling the vehicle is because I recently picked up and identical W8 with the manual transmission that I have been searching for since I realized how fantastic this car really is.
Since taking ownership of the vehicle it has always been garage kept (heated garage for the winters) and washed weekly. There is ZERO rust on the body and no check engine lights, strange noises, rattles, etc.. Oil changes have been done every 5,000 miles with Royal Purple 5w-40. Headlights are crystal clear and provide excellent visibility at night. The BBS rims were recently refinished through Alloy Wheel Repair Company and look good as new. New rotors and pads were installed less than 10,000 miles ago. All in all the vehicle has been maintained to the highest standards and it shows in how the vehicle looks and drives. It should be noted that this is Passat is no slouch either. Vw produced the all wheel drive Passat W8 from 2002-2004 and there car has a top speed of 175 mph! The W8 engine runs as smooth as silk and has great low end torque for being a naturally aspirated gasoline engine. (peak torque comes on at ~2750 rpms) If you've been on the lookout for a well kept W8 to get back into or experience for the first time, then I have to say this is the one. Please feel free to contact me with any more questions about the vehicle and I will be happy to answer them! If you would like to see more pictures of the vehicle I can email you the link to the photo bucket album or take more photos per request. |

Volkswagen could outsell GM in China for the first time in nine years
Fri, 27 Dec 2013As of the end of November, Volkswagen had sold 70,000 more cars than General Motors in China in 2013, making it appear inevitable that VW will outsell GM there. The feat would return the German brand to the top of chart in China for the first time in nine years, but even the second-place getter won't be complaining too loudly: both automakers sold more than three million vehicles in a market pegged to hit 16 million sales this year.
Volkswagen said it could have sold more cars if it had had more production capacity in China. The arrival of a new-to-China Audi A4, a China-built A3 sedan, the VW Bora and Skoda Octavia, as well as an $18.2-billion-euro investment in the country to construct new factories, means VW should see its numbers grow in 2014. GM's lineup is expanding next year, too, adding four Chevrolet nameplates and two vehicles to its Baojun brand as it tries to get to five million in sales by 2015.
Among other automakers, Ford benefited from good product and woes for Japanese automakers over a territorial dispute with China, outselling Toyota by almost 32,000 units through the end of November. The Ford Focus is China's best-selling vehicle so far this year.
2013 Volkswagen Beetle Turbo Convertible
Wed, 10 Apr 2013Less Flower, More Power
Pardon our political incorrectness for a moment, but the Volkswagen New Beetle was, undeniably, a "chick car." There was almost nothing that the New Beetle offered to enthusiasts (of either gender), and by the end of its run, VW had even stripped all of the exciting engines from the car's lineup. Looking to resurrect some of the excitement behind the Beetle, the third generation of the iconic car ditched the cuteness when the coupe debuted for 2012, and now the 2013 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible aims to show how much fun drivers can have without a top.
Celebrating almost six and a half decades of the Beetle convertible, Volkswagen is offering a trio of distinct special editions that celebrate three of the car's most popular decades (the '50s, '60s and '70s), but as one of the unofficial cars of the 1960s, it would almost be a crime not to test this version, right? Besides, this is also the only special edition to get the turbocharged engine. While our first drive of the 2013 Beetle Convertible was in the fuel-miser TDI variation, our two-week romp in the 2013 Beetle Convertible '60s Edition came just as peak convertible weather was kicking off down in Florida.
Volkswagen Multivan Alltrack Concept takes the luxury van life off road
Wed, 05 Mar 2014Volkswagen dug into its commercial vehicle fleet for its latest Geneva Motor Show concept, blending the versatile body of the T5 MultiVan with a luxuriously appointed interior, 4Motion all-wheel drive and a thrifty diesel powertrain.
That 177-horsepower diesel engine routes its power to the AWD system through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Based on that alone, we'd expect the Multivan Alltrack's behind-the-wheel experience to be somewhat familiar. That all-wheel-drive system and van body contribute to the 21-degree approach and 15-degree departure angles of this soft-roading MultiVan.
What wouldn't be familiar is its exquisite cabin. Volkswagen opted for a nautical theme for the concept's interior, featuring grey-blue leather seats from Poltrona Frau and a floor finished in real wood. The dark wood trim can also be found throughout the interior, running below the windows and on the dash.
