What's Good: 45 MPG!!!!!! Florida car - never seen NY winter. New $1200.00 Pioneer touch screen AM/FM/XM DVD Player/Blue tooth. Interior has no rips or obvious wear. 5 Speed Like new tires Airbags everywhere - good for insurance discounts Power Windows/doors/mirrors/Good A-C Body in very good shape Tinted windows all around. One owner prior to my purchasing in April 2014. ABS Cruise Control is in excellent working order. Lots of room for cargo. I just changed the oil and filter - I'm an AMSOIL dealer and used their synthetic oil for small European Diesels. Put $40.00 in the tank and drive about 500 miles before thinking about stopping again!! HAS THULE ROOF RACKS - NOT PICTURED BUT WILL INCLUDE IF WANTED. The car rides and drives nicely and I have put 8K miles on it in the 4 months I've had it. I drive over 30K a year which is why this car saved me a lot of money in just the short time I've had it. What's Bad: I've sold vehicles on eBay before and always give a very honest and comprehensive assessment of what the vehicle's problems are. I don't want the buyer to have any surprises. I purchased this vehicle from Caliber Imports in Montrose, NY - who deals exclusively in these VW Diesels - I paid $8,800 for the car. I wanted the VW Diesel because of the amazing mileage (I was told 50 MPG but this gets 45) I made the mistake of believing the seller about a lot of things, the worst being a clean carfax. The vehicle does not have a salvage title but the carfax says "structural damage in left front pillar". This makes the resale a problem, although I had a professional body mechanic inspect the car and was told that either there was no damage or it was fixed so well that there's no way to tell. The car rides very nicely, especially on the highway. I will email you a scan of the carfax or you can check the Vehicle History Report eBay provides. The eBay vehicle history report does not have the same warning about "possible structural damage" as carfax - but the buyer should know that the carfax paints a darker picture of the vehicle's history. Otherwise, there are some issues where you will have to spend some money, which is why I'm not keeping it. For me to put more money into the car would mean that I spent what amounts to the price of a reasonable new car on a used car, so it is best that I sell this car, proceed civilly against Caliber Imports, and buy new. I've had this car checked by 2 different mechanics because I have a small claim filed against the seller so I will list what both Danbury Volkswagen and Meccanic Shop North in North Salem, NY found alongside the problem I describe. Cranks slowly on cold start - Fault for quantity adjuster in injection pump, failing starter. Squeaking in front end - Sway bar bushings, brackets, front struts Has on occasion bogged, worst case on a very steep hill with three (3) people in the vehicle - Mass air sensor Glove box door won't close. Replace door. Musty smell Replace carpets. Meccanic Shop North is very well known or servicing high end foreign cars, and their estimate to bring the car into a very sound mechanical condition was $1,383.79. Danbury Volkswagen (dealers are know for outrageous service fees) came in at around four times that amount - $5295.00 To the right person, this car is very valuable. I still drive it daily and I'm saving a ton of money over my F250 diesel that gets about 14 MPG. I noticed right away how I have a lot more spending cash driving this car around. I'm listing it at $1,200 more than the cost of the radio which is brand new and wish everyone luck bidding. I just noticed a small chip in the windshield which I will have repaired. VW of Danbury indicated that there is some oil seepage from valve cover gasket. |

2014 Volkswagen Golf GTD is our favorite oil-burning GTI
Tue, 05 Mar 2013
The 2014 Volkswagen Golf GTD has officially bowed at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. Engineers managed to squeeze an additional 14 horsepower and 22 pound-feet of torque out of the familiar 2.0-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engine, nudging total output to 184 hp and 280 lb-ft for 2014. The figures are good enough to earn the GTD the honor of being the most powerful diesel Golf in Volkswagen history. A start/stop system helps improve efficiency over the previous generation with the new model consuming 56 miles per gallon on the EU cycle. That's up from the 2013 model's 46 mpg. A six-speed manual transmission is standard equipment, though a six-speed dual-clutch gearbox is also available.
The GTD also offers buyers a few aesthetic tweaks to help separate the hatch from its less potent siblings. Those include a more aggressive front fascia, special badges and 17-inch alloy wheels. Expect to find the GTD in one of three exterior colors, including Tornado Red, Black and Pure White. Check out the quick press release below for more details.

Volkswagen Passat gets Wolfsburg Edition, priced from $23,495*
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Volkswagen has just announced a new Passat Wolfsburg Edition, which slots between the base S and mid-grade SE trims in terms of content and price. The automaker has not released any official photos of the car as of this writing (aside from the badge shot you see here, of course), but the Wolfsburg Passat will be visually set apart from the rest by a unique set of 16-inch alloy wheels.
The big host of upgrades for the Wolfsburg Edition are found inside, where buyers will enjoy standard amenities like leatherette seats (with bun-warmers on the front chairs), a power driver's seat, satellite radio and a media interface with iPod connectivity. Of course, this comes on top of the already standard Passat features like Bluetooth and auto on/off headlamps. The Wolfsburg Passat will only be available with the 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission.
Look for the 2013 Wolfsburg Edition Passat to hit dealerships in the very near future, priced from $23,495, *not including $795 for destination. Have a look below for Volkswagen's official press blast.
