 '73 Volkswagen Super Beetle. This is an "A" title car with 35,118 ORIGINAL miles. This car was fully restored from the ground up about 10 years ago and rarely driven.  It was driven to a few shows.. This car gets attention everywhere it goes. Super clean and incredible attention to detail! Lots of polished stainless and billit aluminum throughout. Custom paint and pinstriping. Pinstriping was done by the legendary pin stripe artist Mike Caputo. Beautifully done.  Paint work was professionally done to show quality and is awesome. Body is super straight. All body side trim, head light rings, etc. were replaced with high quality replacements after repaint. All of the glass is in great shape.  Floor pans, heater channels, frame head, strut towers, etc. are original to car and in excellent shape and underside of car was painted during restoration.  Creative Car Craft fiberglass widened fenders and widened stock style bumpers with built in turn signals. Car has 68-72 style tail lights. Engine is a fully rebuilt-stock 1600cc dual port that runs excellent. Starts with ease and runs smooth. Engine was kept stock for reliability and is great on gas.  You can drive this car anywhere. Car still has heater boxes and heat blows well. Monza exhaust. Front end was gone through; as was the entire brake system. Car drives straight and smooth and stops well. The clutch, pressure plate, and throwout bearing were replaced at time of engine rebuild.  The 4 speed transmission shifts with ease with a Hurst style shifter. Custom interior finished in tweed, new carpet, sculpted door panels and headliner.  New steering wheel and dash pad.  Billit Specialties wheels with Michelin tires all of the way around. Rear tires are wide to fill in the fenders.  Tires have great tread although the fronts are starting to get dry.  Car has a very nice stance and a hot rod look to it. Never fails to draw attention. Pop out 1/4 windows! All fender beading and weatherstripping was replaced. Fender beading was custom made and is a unique color to match paint. Sunroof works great and the mechanism was rebuilt. Less than 500 miles since restoration. Drives excellent.  There was loads of attention to detail put into the restoration of this car and lots of time and money invested.  I am offering this car at a low reserve.  The set reserve price is 3x less than the amount invested into the restoration.  If you live close by I encourage you to come see this car in person.  If you are hesitant at buying a car long distance, have someone look at the car for you.  I am selling the car "as is," no warranty or refund.  Winning bidder is to pay a $500 deposit through Pay Pal within 24 hours of auction.  The remaining balance is to be paid within 7 days via cash or bank to bank wire transfer.  People new to Ebay or with zero feedback please contact me prior to bidding or I will cancel your bid.  Shipping and transport is responsibility of the buyer.

Volkswagen breaks 40-year-old sales record in 2012

Sun, 13 Jan 2013

The last time Volkswagen moved this many vehicles in America in one year, Richard Nixon was still a President in good standing, Let It Be was a radio hit and each car wearing the VW badge boasted an air-cooled engine. That's right, with a grand total of 580,286 vehicles sold in the US last year, the VW Group has broken its own four-decades-old sales record by 2,899 vehicles.
Of that 580k total sold, 438k were Volkswagens and 139k were Audi products - increases of 35.1 percent and 18.5 percent, respectively, in year-over-year sales. The ultra-premium members of the VW group also fared well; Bentley delivered 2,315 vehicles for a 23.3-precent increase, and Lamborghini delivered 520 units for a 52.9-percent jump. Bugatti, we're told is "right on track."
Jetta (pictured) sales paced the marque with 170k models sold, and Passat also finished very strong with sales of 117k total. Tiguan also racked up its best year on file, with 31,731 models shifted.

Bentley considering diesel engine for new SUV

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

Turns out, in case you didn't know, the rich are just like regular people. They too are concerned about the environment, even when tooling around town in their super-luxurious Bentleys. So the automaker is weighing the idea of offering a diesel engine in its SUV offering, which could help satisfy customers' demands for more fuel-efficient engines.
Chairman and CEO Wolfgang Schreiber told Autoblog in a roundtable interview at the Geneva Auto Show that the automaker is researching whether or not a diesel engine makes sense for the brand. Bentley, owned by the Volkswagen Group, could in theory use a diesel engine from anywhere in the Volkswagen Group family. We at Autoblog have hopes they'll revive the V10 TDI used in the VW Touareg until 2010, but ever-stricter emissions laws would likely make that problematic.
But rich people aren't so much like us that they'll be worried about petty things like pricing. Schreiber admitted the diesel engine could be a $15,000 option, which he said customers would probably find "acceptable." Given that the cheapest Bentley today starts at $177,000, typical customers probably won't be diddling around worrying about an extra 15 grand.

VW reveals Outback-rivaling Golf Alltrack ahead of Paris

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

The Volkswagen Passat Alltrack is getting a baby brother at this year's 2014 Paris Motor Show in the form of a new Golf Alltrack. Like its larger sibling, the little wagon is supposed to offer light-duty off-road driving ability combined with a more rugged look to show it off.
To give the Golf Alltrack that soft-road ability, VW is outfitting the wagon with its latest 4Motion all-wheel drive system from Haldex. The setup can decouple power from the rear-axle when not needed to save fuel. To further improve traction, the Alltrack gets VW's electronic differential lock, and the car can individually brake its inside wheel during hard cornering for better handling.
Volkswagen also wants the Alltrack to be able to visually show that it can handle getting away from the pavement, even though it starts life as a standard Golf wagon. That means jacking up the suspension an extra 0.75 inches and adding black moldings all the way around the car. There are also redesigned bumpers for the front and rear and silver underbody protection, plus new accents like anodized roof rails and silver mirror caps. The interior is essentially unchanged from the wagon, except for altered trim and Alltrack badges.
