Convertible California Beauty No Reserve! on 2040-cars
Merced, California, United States
Up for auction is this beautiful 1979 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible. As I'm sure you know, 1979 was the very last year that Volkswagen produced the Beetle Convertible, and this car is one of the very last cars to ever be built as it has a build date of January 1980! That was the very last month of production, ending forever the Beetle Convertible. To me that would make it the most collectable Beetle ever. If you have ever owned or driven a Beetle you know what fun they are to drive! Just running errands is a blast! And a top-down ride this time of the year is pure pleasure. This car has always been a California car, garaged all of its life, the original interior is still in good condition. The top is about five years old; it is in good condition with a couple of small spots that are a little worn through one layer; you can see these in the picture. It goes up and down nicely and seals up great. The original top boot is also included. The body is very straight and the paint still very shiny! I do believe the car has been painted once since it was new. No accidents, the front and rear aprons are as new. All body pieces, the fenders, doors, hood and engine lid are the factory German pieces that the car came with when new. Other than the chrome wheels there are no aftermarket pieces on this car, including the bumpers. Not a 100-point show car, but a very nice car that you will be proud to own. Drive it on the weekend to your favorite car show or really enjoy life and drive it every day! I was told the mileage of 78k is original but I have no documents to prove it, however I believe it to be true since the car is solid and tight like a 78k mile car. A lot of people restore these cars and some do a good job. But here is a car that has never needed restoring! It has always been kept in good condition. Motor runs quiet and strong and was rebuilt about 5000 miles ago. Tires are about 80%. NO RESERVE AUCTION!! means someone will get this great little car. Available for inspection any time during the auction by appointment. Please remember you are bidding to buy, not just come look. All inspections must be completed before the end of the auction. Full payment is due in three days and I don't take PayPal for payment on cars. E-Mail or call me at 831-383-2499 with questions. Clear California title. I'll ship anywhere in the world at buyer's expense. I can help with shipping, I work with a very reliable company and can have it shipped to your door in the U.S. I also ship to Europe out of Oakland Ca. GOOD LUCK and HAPPY BIDDING!!!!

Volkswagen Golf Wagon leaked ahead of official unveiling
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Wagons 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.
Touring the Volkswagen Museum in Wolfsburg
Mon, 23 Sep 2013Forgive the ribbon up top - this isn't so much of a Read This as a Look At This. Ran When Parked took a tour of the sprawling Volkswagen Museum in Wolfsburg, and while there's a spot of text about the different and unique vehicles on display in the rotating exhibits, it's largely the collection of pictures of odd, one-off VW-badged cars and vans that excites. If you're a fan of the weird and wild, this is a post you'll want to look at.
As RWP points out, this is the larger, but less busy, museum targeted purely at Volkswagen products. The smaller AutoStadt museum, meanwhile, covers a much broader swath, with products from other Volkswagen Group members.

Andretti Autosport partners with Volkswagen for Global Rallycross season
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Michael Andretti and Volkswagen have both been involved in Global Rallycross for a couple of years, but not together. Andretti Motorsports Marketing organized the final round of the 2012 GRC series in Las Vegas, and there were rumors then that Andretti was going to get in. Around the same time there were news reports that Volkswagen was preparing a 600-hp Polo Mk5 to race in the SuperCar class; the photo above is racer Anton Marklund in his privateer Marklund Motorsports Polo at the 2013 X-Games round in Los Angeles.
Now it's official: Andretti Autosport will campaign the 2014 GRC season with VWs. That's all that's been said for now, Andretti being busy at the moment launching four entries for IndyCar, two for Indy Lights and two for Pro Mazda. We have a feeling we'll be seeing the MkVII Golf involved, but the cars and the driver lineup will be presented at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6.
