2001 Volkswagen Jetta Wolfsburg 1.8lturbo, Tornado Red,5-speed Manual,bbs Wheels on 2040-cars
Sumter, South Carolina, United States
01 Tornado Red Jetta Wolfsburg 1.8T. I just got a new job and need to get back into another diesel since I have a 100mi daily commute. It runs great, shifts great, doesn't smoke, and is the most comfortable of the 3 Mark IV Jettas that I have owned. I just replaced the LF wheel bearing and CV axle and now it is very quiet. The Wolfsburg has several options that an average Jetta does not have such as the unique pattern cloth seats, 3-spoke steering wheel, factory BBS wheels, etc. This car is in very good shape for its age and the paint and interior show that someone has taken care of it. It does however have some flaws such as dings and chips in the body, headliner falling in the back, and the clear peeling off the wheel. I just went through and repaired all of the boost leaks and checked for vacuum leaks. Recently did a service on it and replaced fuel filter. It has almost brand new Douglas Performance tires that ride great! I was planning on keeping it until I changed jobs. Please feel free to ask any questions. MILEAGE WILL GO UP SINCE IT IS MY DAILY DRIVER. BUYER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR SHIPPING!! DEPOSIT REQUIRED WITHIN 24 HOURS!!! AS IS. NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED!!! |

Volkswagen Cross Up! aimed at rugged lifestyle folks, complete with plastic cladding
Wed, 06 Mar 2013If you thought there was nothing wrong with the Volkswagen Up! that a little body cladding wouldn't fix, you're in luck. VW has officially pulled the wraps off the production version of the Cross Up!, and its wheel arches and rocker panels are full of the black plastic cladding you've been yearning for.
In addition to the "particularly rugged design and tough, lifestyle qualities" that the cladding exudes, VeeDub has also seen fit to put its Cross Up! on a new set of 16-inch alloy wheels clad in 185/50-series tires. Inside, there are new kick plates to go along with a dash pad that can be had in red, black or silver.
All that cladding must equal additional off-road readiness, right? Well, sure... just so long as you're fine with the same 75-horsepower three-cylinder engine that all other Up! models also feature, along with a five-speed manual transmission sending power to the front wheels, again, just like all other Up! models. The Cross Up! appears to have a taller ride height than other models, but we haven't been able to find out what - if any - changes have been made.
North American production of foreign marques to jump in 2014
Sun, 23 Dec 2012Wards Auto has released its North American Light Vehicle Production Forecast for 2014, and the report predicts foreign manufacturers will increase production on the continent some 3.9 percent by 2014. If accurate, that should see 123,000 additional cars, trucks and vans produced in North America, swelling the total number of units produced both by domestic and foreign manufacturers to 16.9 million light vehicles from a projected 15.6 million in 2013. Much of the increase can be attributed to the fact that Toyota intends to produce another car at its Blue Springs, MS plant as well as a new Lexus model at its Georgetown, KY facility in a year's time.
Likewise, Volkswagen intends to move production of a currently imported model to its plant in Puebla, Mexico. Daimler, Honda, Nissan and Mazda also plan to build additional models on North American soil for the first time. Around two-thirds of the new North American manufacturing will take place in Mexico, helping the country soak up a full 20 percent of the content's automotive production for the first time.

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.
