The paint isnt great, its BARELY starting to fade on the hood, but its not noticeableIt has no radio at the moment, But I have another deck that comes with the car, just not hooked upAC needs recharge.Extremely slow leak of oil like any old VW"

Its my clean title 1984 maroon Volkswagen 1.6 Turbo Diesel Jetta, no not the common diesel rabbit, very well maintained. It has 224,xxx original miles and the odometer still works, however the clock doesn't lol. The car is mechanically sound, I bought it off a vw enthusiast fireman last year. The key point of this car is that it's cheap to fill up and gets LITERALLY 43-45 MPG...300+ miles on a full tank. The registration is cheap too and no worries about smog because Diesels past a certain year aren't required to be smogged. its a really cheap and reliable car that comes with a tons of cool stuff... 

The Maintenance.
Recently in the past 10,000 miles I redid the front brakes, front wheel bearings, brake booster, clutch, suspension (coilovers), and changed the oil (6/8/13)

The Extras(can be worked into the deal):
I bought a set of the E-Code European headlights from a guy in germany off of vortex. The Fenders are rolled and pulled, but you can't tell because of the fender flares :) I also tucked the front bumpers because I hated the diving board style. Also I have a MK1 GTI front valance in black that I've been meaning to pop back on, but I just don't have the time.

The Reason:
I just got a better job a few weeks ago so I decided to buy another car, particularly an E30. So I have no real use for the Jetta anymore. It'll be sad to let it go, but it's been a great car to me. It's got plenty of character and life left in it.

The Bads: 
No rips inside but some of the stitching has come undone in the rear seat headrests but that is it, the interior is in pretty good shape for an 1984 VW

Couple of dings thanks to college parking idiots.

The passenger side window was broken into in such a weird way by crackheads in SF's tenderloins, who also stole a broken radio from it, but left the speakers which still work. They chipped the paint on the door pillar but its okay. 

The paint isnt great, its BARELY starting to fade on the hood, but its not noticeable

It has no radio at the moment, But I have another deck for it, just not hooked up.

AC needs recharge

Heres a video you can see the CONDITION OF THE PAINT WHEN ITS NOT WAXED LIKE IT IS IN THE PICTURES ON THE AD and the rear seat unseamed, and in the video it has the STOCK HEADLIGHTS which i can sell the car WITH for a LOWER price. The PAINT LOOKS BETTER IN PERSON lol.

I am happy to ship the car as long as you pay for it. All parts in the ad will come with the car. No refunds.
I am also selling the car in Craigslist SF bay area, with the option of the white wheels.

2015 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen First Drive [w/video]

Wed, Mar 25 2015

Volkswagen currently offers five Golf models in the US, and in just a few weeks it will add the 2015 SportWagen to the lineup. The previous version sold as the Jetta SportWagen, although it was technically a Golf. For the new model, VW product planners decided to align all the hatchbacks under the same name. The SportWagen employs the same engines as the Golf, but significantly stretches its new MQB architecture. The result is greater practicality in the form of cargo room. With the seats up the SportWagen holds 30.4 cubic feet, almost 8 more than the Golf. The gap widens to nearly 14 cu ft with the seats folded; a max capacity of 66.5 cu ft puts the SportWagen into compact crossover territory. That added functionality leads VW to think it can sway buyers shopping the likes of the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4. And with the high-mpg diesel variant – 31 mpg city, up to 43 highway – VW hopes to lure those considering fuel-sipping MPVs like the Toyota Prius V and Ford C-MAX. What separates this Golf from those other two segments is the driving prowess we've come to expect from Wolfsburg's best-selling nameplate. While the silhouette is similar to the outgoing Jetta wagon, designers honed the character lines to give the Golf SportWagen a more modern, angular aesthetic. The LED headlights look sharp, the hood now scoops down at a steeper angle into the front fenders, and the general proportions – in line with other Golf models – have changed. The new SportWagen is lower, longer, and wider and than the Jetta SportWagen it replaces. Specifically, it is 1.1 inches longer, 0.7 inches wider, and despite being about an inch lower, actually boasts more headroom. Inside, things look pretty familiar to the current Golf family. There are small, premium touches such as a sporty, flat-ish-bottom wheel, piano-black trim, and an optional one-touch panoramic sunroof that makes the cabin a bright, airy, and pleasant place to be. Otherwise, it's your standard Golf fare, but with a whole lot more room out back. The same two engines that power the standard Golf – the 1.8-liter turbocharged inline-four TSI, and 2.0-liter turbocharged TDI diesel – are also found under the hood of the SportWagen. Gasoline-powered models come with a five-speed manual or a traditional six-speed auto, while the TDI gets six-speed transmissions across the board – either as a row-your-own manual, or a dual-clutch DSG auto with steering wheel-mounted paddles.

Recharge Wrap-up: Audi's EV SUV to be built in Brussels, Mercedes-Benz to extend EV range

Thu, Jan 21 2016

European Union Industry Commissioner Elzbieta Bienkowska is demanding that Volkswagen compensate owners of cars affected by the diesel emissions scandal. She says European customers should receive the same goodwill compensation as American drivers, whom VW is providing with $1,000 worth of recompense. "The issue of compensation goes beyond the difference in the legal setup between the US and the EU and plays a fundamental role in viewing VW as a responsible and trustworthy company," says Bienkowska in a letter to Volkswagen CEO Matthias Mueller. Bienkowska has also requested detailed data about the vehicles and "corrective measures" VW is planning. Read more from Automotive News Europe. Mercedes-Benz will equip its plug-in vehicles with higher-capacity batteries as it expands its electric model range. While the PHEVs it has released so far have electric driving ranges between 14 and 20 miles, better batteries should extend that range starting around model years 2018 or 2019. After releasing a slew of plug-ins by the end of next year, Mercedes-Benz development director Dr. Thomas Weber says, "The next-generation vehicle will overcome the 30-km to 50-km hurdle and then the next generation after that will be 80-100 km when they run as pure electric cars." Read more at Green Car Reports, or from Motoring. Audi will build its pure electric SUV at its plant in Brussels, Belgium. The batteries for the vehicle based on the Audi E-Tron Quattro concept (perhaps to be called the Q6) will also be built at the Brussels plant when production begins in 2018. With this announcement comes news that production of the A1 will shift from Brussels to Martorell, Spain, while Q3 production will move from Spain to Gyor Hungary. Audi says the Brussels facility will "become a key plant for electric mobility at the Volkswagen Group." Read more at Green Car Congress, or in the press release below. Audi production network: ready for electric mobility - Premium manufacturer to produce large series of electric cars in Brussels as of 2018 - New models for Martorell (Spain) and Gyor (Hungary) - Audi CEO Rupert Stadler: "We are increasing our efficiency and bundling key competencies" Audi is preparing its international production network for the mobility of the future. Large series production of the first purely electric driven SUV from Audi will begin at the site in Brussels in 2018. The plant will also produce its own batteries.

TN politicians may push to end VW incentives if plant goes union

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

Volkswagen's Chattanooga Assembly Plant is scheduled to vote on whether to unionize in the coming days, but Tennessee state lawmakers are threatening to deny future tax subsidies to the factory, if the vote is successful. The factory is currently the only Volkswagen plant worldwide that is not unionized.
The states's Republican lawmakers have been particularly vocal against the union vote. Tennessee state senator Bo Watson said during a press conference that VW would have a "very tough time" with future incentives if the vote were successful, according to Automotive News. Tennessee House Majority Leader Gerald McCormick said the "heavy hand" of the UAW is not welcome there. VW has drawn criticism from both sides because it has allowed both pro- and anti-union groups to speak to workers and hand out leaflets.
Roughly 1,500 factory employees will vote on whether to unionize from February 12-14. If successful, the Chattanooga factory would be the first in the US organized under a German-style works council system where white- and blue-collar workers directly negotiate factory issues with the company's management.
