Being offered is our 1972 Volkswagen Beetle convertible in original, beautiful condition. It has never been restored, instead, it has always been garaged and lovingly maintained by an adult; when something needed to be replaced, it was replaced. We purchased the car a few years ago from a long-time owner and have put less than 100 miles on it since (we had a baby). The 4 speed transaxle, clutch, pressure plate and throw-out bearings have less that 100 miles on them and was professionally done at a reputable European car shop near us in northern New Jersey. The top (insulated with headliner) was recently replaced, the front seats were recovered with original type, black vinyl, supports and cushions. Everything operates properly, all gauges work, the dash lights, even the interior light illuminates when you open the door. You can tell the car has been adult maintained as it was never ordered with a radio when new and remains that way – although in 1972, all VW’s came standard with an antenna should you wish to install one yourself. It had a repaint of its original Yellow color approximately 10 years ago and it still looks fantastic, there are no dents or dings in the paint and it shines beautifully. There is a slight crimp in the passenger’s side running board which may be decades old, please see the photo - it is simple and inexpensive to fix should you choose to. The car runs and drives extremely well and we would not hesitate to drive it anywhere. It still wears the original sized radial tires on its original rims and retains the original oil-bathed air cleaner and stock ‘pea-shooter’ exhaust. Try finding a Beetle that original! It easily passed the difficult emissions test for New Jersey and naturally is eligible for ‘Historic’ plates in any state. The engine was rebuilt approx 19K miles ago and a thick folder of receipts and service records accompanies the vehicle. We wish we drove the car more than we did. It needs nothing that we are aware of, runs and looks correct, smells clean, looks happy and is ready for its new home. Please reach out if you have specific questions or would like a specific photo. Thanks very much and good luck! Cheers~

Volkswagen Golf Variant Concept R-Line puts the sport in SportWagen

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

With the introduction of the newest Volkswagen Golf Variant, we get an early look at what will most likely be the next-generation Jetta SportWagen here in the US. To further wet our appetities, VW is now teasing something a little sportier with the Concept R-Line. Looking the part of a GTI wagon (or a stretched Golf R), the Golf Variant Concept R-Line has a production-ready appearance that has us hoping we'll see this sporty wagon sooner rather than later.
The R-Line starts off with a new fascia that isn't quite as aggressive as the recently introduced GTI, but it gives the new styling some extra punch. Below the fascia is a lower splitter that visually carries back into the rocker panel extensions, and the rear of the car gets some bright exhaust tips and a rear diffuser. The Lapis Blue Metallic paint job probably does enough on its own to add a sporty flair to the Golf wagon, and it's all finished off with 18-inch split-spoke wheels. Inside, the Concept R-Line shows off sport seats wrapped in carbon leather featuring blue nappa inserts in the middle.
Rightfully so, VW brought the Concept R-Line to Geneva with its TDI and 4Motion all-wheel-drive system. A sporty, all-wheel-drive diesel wagon? Yes, please. Scroll down for the full press blast with all the details.

Volkswagen Golf Wagon leaked ahead of official unveiling

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

Wagons ho! These three images of the upcoming Volkswagen Golf Wagon have leaked online ahead of the car's official debut, which may very well be at the Geneva Motor Show. Looking over the photos doesn't really bring any surprises - after all, this is a VW Golf with a wagon rear end grafted on, or basically what we expect next Jetta SportWagen will be.
We can only share these three images at this time, but fret not, folks. There's little doubt that all the details and images will be flowing from Volkswagen in short order. In the meantime, click on the images above to view them in high resolution.

New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise

Mon, 18 Feb 2013

Convertibles make you do funny things. Ask someone if they'd drive a hardtop in near freezing temperatures with all the windows down and they might not even answer, thinking the question so ridiculous. Give that same person a convertible they love and you might just have to ask them to please put the top up even when snow is on the ground.
That guy has to take precautions to enjoy his proclivities, and as this new ad for the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible shows, not everyone understands. Have a watch below, and note that there's just one woman in the minute-long spot, and she's nowhere near the car. Seriously, why didn't VW run this commercial during the Super Bowl?
