Convertible California Beauty No Reserve! on 2040-cars
Merced, California, United States
ENJOY LIFE! DRIVE A CONVERTIBLE! Up for NO RESERVE AUCTION is this Beautiful
1976 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible! If
you have ever owned or driven one of these great little cars, you know what fun
they are! Just running errands is a
blast. And a top-down ride on a
beautiful day is pure pleasure. It has always been a weekend driver, never used
every day. New factory yellow paint about two years ago, it's very straight and
shiny. The interior is in great
condition; the seats have lots of padding, and no rips or tears. The convertible top is in excellent
condition with only two very small tears. Brand new tires on freshly painted factory
Sport Wheels. No Super Beetle shimmy or shake. Runs and drives excellent, has just received a full tune-up. I have a folder full of service and repair records dating back to 1999. A very nice car that you will be delighted to
own. Take it to your local
"Bug" show and be proud. Or
really enjoy life and drive it every day! What else can you drive with the history and
reliability of a Volkswagen? I have
owned and driven these cars for over 40 years now and I can tell you that this
is a very nice one -- a true "keeper". A lot of people restore these cars and some
do a good job. But here is a car that
doesn't need restoring! It has always
been kept in good condition. Beetle

VW confirms development of 10-speed dual clutch, 134-hp/liter diesel
Fri, 26 Apr 2013Each year, the Vienna International Motor Symposium showcases some of the up-and-coming technologies automakers are engineering for the use in passenger cars, and Volkswagen AG CEO Martin Winterkorn revealed some big developments VW is working on for its future products. Winterkorn discussed a multi-faceted approach that VW is looking to reduce its fleet fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.
Some of the bigger news he discussed included a "high-performance" diesel engine that will produce 134 horsepower per liter and a 10-speed DSG automatic transmission. While no specific applications were mentioned, we can only hope this is for the Audi R4 we keep hearing about.
Another topic he touched on that caused us to perk up our ears was had to do with VW's plug-in hybrid technology. While we know the PHEV versions of the Audi A3 and Porsche Panamera are on the way, Winterkorn also said that these two models will be followed up by Golf, Passat, Audi A6 and Porsche Cayenne plug-in models. Scroll down for a press release highlighting the automaker's future fuel-saving initiatives.
New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise
Mon, 18 Feb 2013Convertibles 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?
Chrysler slows minivan production, hasn't built VW Routan this year
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Chrysler has slowed production of its Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans this week, Automotive News reports. The Windsor, Ontario plant will cut its three shifts from eight hours each to four hours each in an effort "to align production with market demand," a Chrysler spokesperson told AN. Chrysler also builds the closely related Routan minivan for Volkswagen at its Ontario facility, but has not built a single example thus far in 2013.
Sales of Chrysler's minivans fell 15 percent for the first two months of 2013, and a large part of that has to do with the 26-percent drop of the Grand Caravan alone (the T&C was only down by one percent). According to Automotive News data, as of March 1, Chrysler had an unsold inventory of 24,713 Town and Country models and 18,547 Grand Caravans - a 69- and 43-day supply, respectively.
"No sense running full speed now, then have a lot of vehicles sitting around a few months down the line," Chrysler spokeswoman Jodi Tinson told AN. Full production is expected to resume again on March 18.
