Volkswagen: Rabbit Diesel Vw 1981 Great Condition on 2040-cars
Washington, District Of Columbia, United States
|
I'm selling a 1981 Volkswagen Rabbit diesel that has been my daily driver for 2.5 years. I've moved to DC and will be sharing a car due to limited parking so I'm getting rid of this one. The car is in great shape, and I've done a lot of work to it to keep it reliable and running well. There is very minimal surface rust as shown in the pictures. The underneath is very solid. The interior is in great condition--see the pictures. The tires have plenty of tread left on them. It gets 45mpg consistently. The odometer, temp guage, and AC does not work but that's common for these older rabbits. I the things that I've done include but are not limited to: Rebuilt fuel injection pump (This was $1100. I have receipts to show) Struts and springs all around Alternator Starter Battery 4 point lower stress bar that really helped stability (go to techtonicstuning[dot]com/main/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_11_6&products_id=2217) Rotary vacuum pump from a later model Jetta. This is a major upgrade for the vacuum system and breaking. Timing belt Glow Plugs Sound deadening material Modern speakers and radio Shifter bushings Coolant hoses Front brake rotors and pads Coolant heater for cold weather starts (I had this installed during this past winter. It plugs into a regular outlet when it gets cold out and works like a charm. It started with no problem when it dipped into the 20's. It was $160 and I have receipts to show). Oil pan gasket Valve cover gasket The car is currently in Washington, DC but I'm willing to arrange pickups in either Williamsburg, Va or Harrisonburg, Va for a small fee. Please contact beforehand. Thanks and happy bidding! |

Volkswagen and Funny or Die take humorous spin in 2015 Golf
Wed, 10 Sep 2014Volkswagen is partnering with Target and Funny or Die in a bizarre ad for the latest Golf starring comedian Rob Huebel, probably best known for his work on Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim.
The commercial is titled The Way Too Helpful Neighbor and stars Huebel as the eponymous neighbor. The challenge is for Huebel to help improve his buddy's apartment before the guy meets his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The obvious way to do that is to slide a new Golf through an actual Target in Texas, while simultaneously showcasing the store's goods and the car's features.
The commercial is airing online now and on TBS during breaks in Conan O'Brien's show, with sneak peaks during other programs on the network. Auto advertising is becoming pretty normal for Funny or Die at this point, though, with the site previously partnering with Fiat for several videos. Check out the ad above and see if you think it works. Scroll down for VW's announcement.
VW's Winterkorn tells 20,000 staffers of big cost-cutting plans
Thu, 24 Jul 2014During a gathering of 20,000 Volkswagen Group employees at company headquarters in Wolfsburg, Germany on Wednesday, CEO Martin Winterkorn dropped a bombshell. The boss stated that the automaker isn't operating efficiently enough and admitted the company needs to radically start cutting back to raise its profit margins. To right the ship, Winterkorn has proposed killing off less profitable models and spending less on research and development.
According to Reuters, Winterkorn wants to raise the VW brand's profit margin from about 2.9 percent in 2013 to a target of 6 percent. To make that possible, his plan amounts to increasing cost cutting until Volkswagen reaches about 5 billion euros ($6.7 billion) per year to get things back in order. "Over the short-term, we urgently need more efficiency and higher profit," the CEO said during his speech, according to Reuters.
However, Winterkorn can't make these decisions unilaterally. Volkswagen's works council also has a seat on the supervisory board to represent laborers, and it isn't likely to take the proposed cuts sitting down.
J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.
