I'm the third owner of a 1971 super B that was bought new in its day by a woman who moved to DC from buffalo NY and kept it parked indoors for most of it's life. In the 1982 it was sold to her co-worker, a friend of my father who used it primarily to drive to NYC and back. it had 69K on the odometer when I took ownership in 1999. I used it primarily to drive to Springfield VA from the same neighborhood in DC. I had the heads tightened in 2001, transmission rebuilt in 2005. new muffler in 2009. engine is mostly stock with oil-bath filter, upgraded hot spark coil and mechanical advance distributor for added power. served as year round daily transport from 1999 to 2012. Still runs beautifully once its warmed up. sunroof works but requires a bit of muscle and does leak in heavy rain. Enkei style wheels and front strut crossbar added a lot of stability at freeway speeds. leakage has caused a fair amount of damage to seats, rear deck and floor but car is intact and restorable. Haven't restored it as planned so it's time to get honest with myself and sell it to someone who will. Includes new running board fairings, new white window seals, Haynes manual, Idiots guide and reference books, misc. spares and other bits. accepting cash or paypal payments, make appointments to meet for test drives in the Springfield VA/DC area. transfer of title and bill of sale must happen near a metro station

German prosecutors investigating Audi for emissions scandal

Fri, Nov 13 2015

After weeks of investigation into Volkswagen by prosecutors in Braunschweig, Germany, attorneys in Ingolstadt will also begin an examination into Audi's potential role in the emissions scandal. They reportedly received multiple criminal complaints that requested an inquiry, including one from Audi, according to Bloomberg. The prosecutors in Ingolstadt want to focus on people within the automaker that are responsible for emissions. However, the investigation is still too early in the process to identify any specific suspects. The German lawyers might also eventually combine their cases, but they remain separate for now. "Braunschweig took those parts that are clearly located at Volkswagen and asked us to keep the elements limited to Audi," a spokesperson for the Ingolstadt attorneys told Bloomberg. Audi has 2.1 million vehicles worldwide with Volkswagen Group's emissions-cheating four-cylinder diesel, including an estimated 13,000-14,000 of them in the US. The Environmental Protection Agency also recently filed a second violation notice against the 3.0-liter TDI V6 that was used in several of the company's models here, and the automaker responded with a stop sale for them. VW Group's carbon-dioxide emissions cheating in Europe also reportedly involves some Audi models. In that case, engineers admitted to artificially improving test results to achieve the cuts that the automaker requested.

Volkswagen E-Co-Motion Concept brings electric mobility to the commercial set

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

Volkswagen sees a future where the bulk of the world's freight is moved into city centers by train, then offloaded onto a fleet of smaller, light-duty commercial vehicles for final delivery. Those vehicles could wind up looking something like the company's E-Co-Motion Concept that debuted at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. The EV features a modular underfloor drive unit comprised of a battery, motor and gearbox that can be paired with any number of cab and body configurations to suit a buyer's needs, from a refrigerated box to a standard flat bed.
The E-Co-Motion Concept features a rear-mounted electric motor with 113 horsepower and 199 pound-feet of torque. A standard 20 kWh battery pack provides a driving range of up to 62 miles, while 30 kWh and 40 kWh packs could deliver 93 and 124 miles of travel, respectively. Check out the press release below for more information.
