Hi, You are looking at our little VW Bug named Klaus. It was originally a southern vehicle and since it has come to Minnesota it has not seen a winter. The pictures you see are only from pulling it out of a heated garage to take them and putting it right back in the garage. The vehicle started out as a rust free vehicle. The color that it is now is also the original color. It has an engine and transmission that have less then 500 miles on them. All the tires have less then 100 miles on them. They were installed at the end of last summer. All of the brakes and brake components were replaced at the same time the tires were put on. It has a new stereo in it that fits in the factory hole and is made specifically for this vehicle. It has an aux jack in it so you are able to play music from your iPod, iPad, etc. I also put in a speaker that fits in the original speaker hole but is actually two small speakers. This is so you can have stereo sound. All of the steering and suspension components were replaced in the beginning of last summer. The interior was also redone and looks great. Are you getting the picture? Everything is new or refurbished. The only thing that was not replaced was the headliner because I though it was still in great shape. The new paint looks very nice. Car drives like a dream. Here are some upgrades I did. It has a 009 distributor with an electronic ignition for better reliability and less hassle with points. I used a Petronix ignition due to them never failing. It has a Bosche blue-coil in it for more spark. I decided to stick with the stock single port set up but went with a 1600 engine for a bit more power. I upgraded from a Generator to a Alternator. It's just a great almost stock vehicle. The upgrades I did were not to make it fast car, cause it's not, but to make it more reliable by today's standards. It's a vehicle you can just get in and go and not worry about breaking down. Again, everything is new. Check out the pics and let me know if you have any questions. If you need to have this vehicle shipped, I will help with getting it to a shipping yard to save you money. It's usually more expensive to have them come directly to me for pickup.

Volkswagen hatches hotter GTI in Geneva
Tue, 05 Mar 2013The all-new seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't even launched here in the United States, but over in Geneva, we're already getting our first glimpse at the hotter GTI hatchback. The fancy new Mk VII Golf is already off to a healthy start with positive reviews in Europe, and we have no doubt that this next GTI will work hard to regain its title as king of the hot hatches.
The big news for this generation of GTI is that for the first time ever, Volkswagen is actually offering two different power grades for the model, both relying on the 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four. Standard cars pack 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, but an optional performance pack ups the horsepower number to 230. Hitting 60 miles per hour takes 6.5 seconds (6.4 with the performance pack) and top speed is quoted at 153 mph (or 155 with the performance kit). Volkswagen will continue to offer the GTI with both six-speed manual and dual-clutch transmissions.
On the visual front, the sub-3,000-pound GTI adds the usual bit of hot hatch aggression over the standard Golf, and those changes carry over to the interior with a flat-bottomed wheel and, of course, plaid seats. She's certainly a looker, and while some of us do find the new Golf's design to be a bit staid and evolutionary, the enhancements for the GTI indeed tug on our enthusiast heart strings.
VW Up Buggy may be headed to showrooms
Tue, 02 Jul 2013Volkswagen showed six conceptual takes on its Up at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show, one of those being the Up Buggy. Although few will probably remember it, VW has not forgotten it, applying for a patent for the Meyers Manx revival roadster way back in March 2012 and being approved in June of this year, according to a report in Autocar. That will give the automaker a 14-year lock on the design while it decides whether to move forward with a reboot of its past.
A patent doesn't mean the Up Buggy will ever move beyond the sheet-of-paper stage, but Autocar says VW is studying the market to see if a production version is feasible. We can't see North America ever getting it, but even so, we wouldn't complain if they made it - especially if they put an exposed engine in back that was set off by 18-inch-long twin tailpipes jutting straight up into the air. However, for a company that aims to be the world's number-one automaker by 2018, a niche vehicle for its mass-market brand would be a surprising use of resources.
Volkswagen New Midsize Coupe Concept is an aspirational Jetta
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Meet the Volkswagen baby CC. Okay, that's not really it's name (VW calls it the New Midsize Coupe Concept), but this sleek, four-door coupe draws more than a little inspiration from the CC while riding on VW's MQB platform.
It's a looker, we think, and is an eye-pleasing departure from the bland styling of the current Jetta. The sleeker front end is complemented by a wider body overall (it's wider than a Passat), while the more sporting roofline and the sharp rear fascia gives the New Midsize Coupe a decidedly sporting character. LED head- and taillights add a bit more personality to this already stylish design.
Thanks to its 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder, it should get along rather sportingly, as well. The run to 62 miles per hour takes just 6.5 seconds thanks to the 217 horsepower on offer. A seven-speed dual-clutch automatic is also fitted, and contributes to an estimated 37 miles per gallon.
