Vw New Beetle With Sunroof - Will Bring To You on 2040-cars
Delaware, Ohio, United States
|
I'll let the pictures tell the story for this snappy little VW bug. I have especially enjoyed the "panoramic" sunroof/moonroof, and I loved being able to fit my bicycle in there and also my lawn mower (and the ramp for getting it in and out). One of its best features is the "clean" Carfax report and the complete owner's manual that is still with it. The pictures of the insides of the doors show that there is no rust at all. I try to show the imperfections as well as possible: One will show that the "inner hubcap" is missing on the front left wheel. The picture with the back license plate is meant to show the dings that happened when my bike was put in without a blanket (they were touched up). Then there's a view of the whole back seat but then another meant to highlight a little square mark in that back seat leather. There's also about a 1-inch square mark you'll see behind the right rear wheel. There is also a scratch on the driver's side (touched up) and a few little stone pings on the hood. Tires have lots of goody left. Up until the gas gauge went out one of our very cold mornings a few weeks ago, I could say, "Everything works: Sunroof, heated seats, digital clock, outside thermometer, cruise control, power locks and windows, radio, power seats, excellent A/C and heat; but the gas gauge did stop working. Its other "quirks" are that a couple of the idiot lights are usually (but not always) on (the ABS and check engine; my mechanic assures me there is no problem, just a sensor). And one other thing it started doing on the cold mornings is within about 10 seconds of starting, it will give 3 "beeps" (like when the door is open with the engine running) and the thermometer light will flash on and off for a few minutes while you're driving. Here's what has been put into it recently: * New water tube, new water hose, and top off coolant; NEW FRONT BRAKE PADS AND NEW FRONT ROTORS for right and left sides (July 2013). * A new cable between the gas tank cover and the lever inside that opens it, as they had stopped "communicating." (July 2013) * New water pump, NEW TIMING BELT, new drive belt (October 2013). * NEW BATTERY (November 2013). * NEW IGNITION SWITCH (January 2014). * A new radio was installed; AM/FM works, but the CD does not work. However, it does have inputs for your MP3 player or USB, and the car itself has wonderful speakers. * I should say somewhere here that I only have 1 key. FOR 30 CENTS A MILE (FROM COLUMBUS, OH TO THE AIRPORT NEAREST YOUR HOME), I WILL DELIVER THIS VW ANYWHERE IN THE UNITED STATES!! (I did this when I sold my RV on EBay, and it worked out beautifully. Obviously, I would need payment in full for the car and the mileage before heading out; and delivery would need to be scheduled mid-week (when airfare for my return home is about half what it is otherwise). Of course, if you'd rather pick it up here, I'd be happy to meet you at Port Columbus Airport. NO DOC FEE, NO ADMIN FEE, NO DEALER CHARGES . . .

Happy 60th to the VW Karmann Ghia
Tue, 20 Aug 2013Volkswagen's product portfolio may be as extensive these days as any other carmaker in the business. But if you still think of the original Beetle as synonymous with the brand, that's probably because a) you're old and b) the Beetle was the company's only product until the mid-50s.
Sixty years ago Wilhelm Karmann (founder of the eponymous coachbuilder) was in Paris for the auto salon and met up with Luigi Segre and his team from Carrozzeria Ghia who showed him what was essentially a "Beetle in a sports coat." A month later they showed it to Volkswagen chief Heinrich Nordhoff who, setting aside his conservative tastes, approved it for production. And so the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia was born, giving the German marque a second product line. It still used Beetle mechanicals and was built at the same Karmann factory in Onsabrück that was already assembling the Beetle Cabriolet.
It took another couple of years to put the design into production, but from 1955 to 1974, Volkswagen and Karmann built 362,601 coupes and 80,881 of the subsequent convertible that arrived in 1957. Today the Onsabrück factory is part of the VW Group, handling production of the Golf Cabriolet, XL1 and Porsche Boxster and Cayman, and with that original Karmann Ghia prototype as part of its factory collection.
VW Super Bowl teaser with Jimmy Cliff is like a less-mean Tosh.0 Web Redemption
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Reggae super-duper-star and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Jimmy Cliff has been using music to send positive vibes out into the universe for decades now, so its no surprise that his message on behalf of Volkswagen is one of redemption.
Dubbed Sunny Side, this web-spot is VW's warmup of sorts for what promises to be another blockbuster year in the world of Super Bowl commercials. Without giving away the game, the euphonious commercial sees Cliff opening his arms and his heart to some YouTube 'celebrities' that might see courser treatment from the likes of Tosh.0, for instance. We can't help but be reminded of Coca-Cola's legendary 1971 Hilltop spot with the "I'd like to buy the world a Coke" lyric, too.
Enjoy the pre-Super Bowl VW spot below, and don't forget to pay it forward... your karma will thank you. For those of you that just can't get enough of commercial-making magic, we've included a "making-of" video, as well.
Volkswagen New Midsize Coupe Concept is an aspirational Jetta
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Meet the Volkswagen baby CC. Okay, that's not really it's name (VW calls it the New Midsize Coupe Concept), but this sleek, four-door coupe draws more than a little inspiration from the CC while riding on VW's MQB platform.
It's a looker, we think, and is an eye-pleasing departure from the bland styling of the current Jetta. The sleeker front end is complemented by a wider body overall (it's wider than a Passat), while the more sporting roofline and the sharp rear fascia gives the New Midsize Coupe a decidedly sporting character. LED head- and taillights add a bit more personality to this already stylish design.
Thanks to its 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder, it should get along rather sportingly, as well. The run to 62 miles per hour takes just 6.5 seconds thanks to the 217 horsepower on offer. A seven-speed dual-clutch automatic is also fitted, and contributes to an estimated 37 miles per gallon.
