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. |

2nd annual Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards revealed
Tue, Jan 13 2015There was some absolutely fantastic auto advertising in 2014, ranging from funny to inspiring. Marking the best of it from the past year, the Second Annual One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards were announced during the 2015 Detroit Auto Show (full disclosure: Autoblog was among the award's sponsors, and Editor-in-Chief Sharon Carty was a voter). Unlike previously, there were no brands with dominance over the list this time. Presented by The One Club, the awards have an international scope and hand out honors in a variety of categories. In the Broadcast TV group, there were three winners this year. First, there was The Scripted Life from Audi for the Q3 about breaking out of life's monotony. Also, Dad's Sixth Sense from Hyundai marketed the safety features in the Genesis. Finally, Unbreakable Drivers showed manly men being tested for the Toyota Hilux in Australia. The Online Video prize went to the fantastic The Epic Split spot from Volvo Trucks starring Jean-Claude Van Damme. The best Interactive ad was the Honda video titled The Other Side for the Civic Type R, and the Experiential Advertising nod was for the Volkswagen Eyes on the Road clip that showed the dangers of texting and driving to a theater full of moviegoers in Hong Kong. Finally, the Public Choice Award went to the BMW commercial called Hello Future using the words of sci-fi author Arthur C. Clarke for the i8. In the award not for videos, Jeep won the Print/Outdoor category for its Upside Down campaign. Check the ads out below, which show different animals when upside down. Also, look farther down for all of the winning videos and read their full announcements.

Winners will be presented on-stage at a special event during the NAIAS Press Preview on Tuesday, January 13, 2015, at the Cobo Center in Detroit at 4:55 p.m. The event is sponsored by AOL's Autoblog.
