Hello! Up for sale I have a 2010 VW Jetta Sportwagen equipped with a  highly desired, but rare MANUAL transmission. Over the time that I have owned this tremendous new technology clean diesel, I have achieved consistently 650 miles to its 14 gallon tank. (650/14=46.4mpg) the best I have achieved is 52mpg. I drive highway and city. I am only the second owner of this vehicle and have loved driving it on long road trips or just down the road. The manual transmission goes in and out of gear effortlessly, the 4 cylinder TDI motor starts up and runs as quiet as a Gas, and the turbo (which was just replaced brand new) helps get this car up to speed like no other diesel you have ever driven (unless of course you have driven a 2010-2013 VW TDI). 

Mechanically: this car is mechanically sound. Always serviced at the VW dealer from day one, including the most recent Timing Belt, water pump, tensioner and serpentine belt replacement at 212k. This car starts up effortlessly. steering and suspension are unrivaled in comparison to other wagons. add in your 50+mpg highway combined with the 40mpg city and you have one of the nicest most economical wagons on the road. Only 507.00 VW approved oils have been used in the motor. The things that will need to be replaced soon: front rotors are coming up due for a change. The AC has worked on and off over the last hot season. I ended up buying a brand new VW AC compressor to install, but didnt get around to it. The new Compressor will be included with this purchase. The car drives straight but could use a slight adjustment/alignment (depending how picky you are). Everything other than mentioned works PEFECTLY!!

The interior is IMMACULATE. solid 10/10. Both driver and passenger sides have very comfortable, electronic heated seats that heat up faster than your motor on the cold days. The original owner was in advertising. He drove this car across country and back day after day, leaving ZERO wear on the passenger and rear seats and putting 95% all HIGHWAY miles on the tach. The driver seat is also just as nice as the rest of the car even with the mileage driven in the seat. The trunk/hatch still has the organizers in the packaging from the dealer!! Factory Allweather floormats will come with this car, only accenting the already beautiful interior. In dash 6 DISC cd changer, wireless bluetooth, am/fm/sat. There is even an option to input SD cards. I absolutely love the wireless bluetooth connectivity. play your own music talk hands free to friends/family/clients all through the interior radio/speakers from your phone. another great option is all windows go up or down automatically with the push of a button. Everything in the interior is 100% perfect just as the day it rolled off the dealer lot.

Exterior is mostly good. The red exterior shines beautifully. The wheels are in great shape, tires have roughly 60-70% tread left. They are SNOW tires. ESP equipped with snow tires will keep this car driving straight as an arrow all winter long! (if you dont know what ESP is, please youtube it, it is the single greatest thing to be installed in new cars). 

Now the bad (and reason for the low price): I was rear ended at a whopping 5 mph. the damage put a dent in the rear hatch and broke the rear tail light. The damage was not very bad, nor extensive as seen in the pictures. As is the car is completely legal as all lights are working fine and the hatch opens and shuts completely fine. I am going back to school. To finance my MSA I must unfortunately sell this car. I strongly urge you to come drive the car. see it and drive it for yourself to see how amazing this car really is. Any questions are encouraged. feel free to email me and or call me at 419-345-1732

Recharge Wrap-up: Toyota Prius airbag recall, Peugeot launches eU01s e-bike

Fri, Sep 16 2016

Toyota is recalling 7,600 Prius vehicles for an airbag issue. Certain examples of the 2016 Prius could have malfunctioning inflators that could cause the passenger side airbags to deploy accidentally. There are no known injuries from the faulty airbags, but Toyota says, "This has been observed when the vehicle is parked and unoccupied for a period of time." Toyota also says this issue is unrelated to the massive recall of airbags supplied by Takata. The automaker will contact affected owners to arrange free repairs. Read more at Automotive News. Peugeot is adding another e-bike to its portfolio with the eU01s. What sets this electrically assisted bicycle apart from both regular bikes and other pedelecs is its ability to propel the bike to 28 mph under electric power. It comes with either a 400- or 500-Wh lithium-ion battery, providing 47 or 59 miles of range, respectively. It also offers an optional on-board computer with its 4.3-inch screen, through which riders can customize the electric assistance, get directions, receive sports coaching, and connect their smartphone. Earlier this year, Peugeot also launched its e-Kick scooter and folding eF01 e-bike. Read more at Green Car Congress. BYD is expanding its manufacturing facility in the US.

The German states of Hesse and Baden-Wuerttemberg are suing Volkswagen over the Dieselgate scandal. The states are joining other investors seeking damages over losses incurred because of the automaker's emissions cheat device. Hesse Finance Minister Thomas Schaefer said the scandal cost the state about $4.4 million in stock losses, while Baden-Wuerttemberg likely lost closer to $450,000. Bavaria said earlier that it would sue Volkswagen on behalf of its pension fund for civil servants, which lost around $780,000. Read more from Automotive News Europe.

The not-Subaru crossover wagon | 2017 Volkswagen Alltrack First Drive

Fri, Sep 16 2016

Funnily enough, in light of dieselgate, Volkswagen is one of the few brands (along with Volvo and Subaru) to preserve the notion that you don't need a fuel-sucking SUV to meet your life-carrying needs. And, yes, VW's history of addressing off-road desires with all-wheel-drive dates to the mid-1980s with the Quantum Syncro (a.k.a. Passat) and Golf Country – the latter, sadly, never came stateside. The latest offering toward this effort is the 2017 Volkswagen Alltrack. What's an Alltrack? It's a slightly lifted, cladded, and butched-out version of the Golf Sportwagen (yes, formerly known as a Jetta). Not to steal Alltrack's thunder, but starting in 2017 you can also get the standard Sportwagen with 4Motion AWD, which is basically the same running gear for less money. The Alltrack starts at $26,950; the 4Motion Sportwagen starts at $24,930, both with the dual-clutch automatic available at launch. Any discussion of tall wagons brings Subaru immediately to mind, both with the Outback and the Impreza-based Crosstrek. The Volkswagen Alltrack sits between the two in size at 180.2 inches long – 5 more than the Crosstrek and 9.4 inches shorter than the Outback. The 2017 Subaru Outback starts at $25,645, and VW's comparisons focus on the Outback, which is understandable given the similar starting price. A bare-bones Crosstrek starts at $22,245, but quickly gets into Golf price overlap. The Alltrack and the 4Motion Golf Sportwagen are superior daily drivers to the Subaru, whether you're doing an emergency lane change or just trying to merge onto the interstate. Meanwhile, the Crosstrek doesn't have the refinement of the VW. Can we fault Subaru though? It's set a sales record every year in a row since 2010 and is looking at about triple the sales volume of VW's Golf for 2016. So we'll stick to telling you what we think of the Alltrack and let the dealers fight for your dollars. First thing's first. Yes, you can have the Golf Sportwagen and even the Alltrack with a manual six-speed gearbox. The seven-speed DSG automatic is very good, but it's worth noting that any manual gearbox is a rarity these days, especially when we're not talking about a two-seat sports car. You will have to wait until early 2017 for that option, but it also saves you $1,100 off both models. Second, the Alltrack and 4Motion Sportwagens get identical engines. Whether manual or DSG, VW's EA888 turbocharged 1.8-liter four-cylinder is under the hood.

Suzuki and VW finalize their divorce

Thu, Feb 11 2016

The rocky divorce between Suzuki and Volkswagen is finally over after working its way through the International Court of Arbitration since 2011, according to the Japan Times. In the final settlement to end the companies' disputes, Suzuki agreed to pay VW an undisclosed amount for not living up to the agreement to use the German automaker's diesel engines. While they won't disclose the exact sum, Suzuki said in a statement that the money "will not have any significant impact" on its 2015 fiscal year results, which will end in March. The arbitration court took the biggest step to end this transcontinental partnership in August 2015 when the body ruled VW needed sell its 19.9-percent stake in Suzuki. However, the Japanese company wasn't entirely off the hook because VW was still allowed to sue for damages over the diesel engine issue. This latest decision finally clears up that dispute. Like most marriages, the union between VW and Suzuki began with stars in both parties' eyes. The Germans paid $2.8 billion to buy 19.9 percent of the Japanese company in December 2009. VW was supposed to get greater access to the auto market in India, and Suzuki hoped to capitalize on access to its partner's advanced technology. By 2011, rumors started percolating that things were contentious behind closed doors. VW allegedly tried to assert control over Suzuki's operations, and the Japanese company reportedly wasn't happy with its access to the German tech. Suzuki even bought diesel engines from Fiat, rather than VW. Later that year, company CEO Osamu Suzuki announced he would end the alliance, and they started working through arbitration. Notification Concerning Resolution of Arbitration by Settlement As Suzuki has reached a settlement regarding the arbitration that Suzuki filed with the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce on 24 November 2011, Suzuki informs you of the following: 1. History from the Request for Arbitration to the Settlement As announced in the "Notification Concerning Arbitration Award" dated 30 August 2015, the Tribunal indicated that it would address the issue of alleged damages arising from Suzuki's breach of the agreement claimed by Volkswagen AG ("VW") in a further stage of the arbitration proceedings. Suzuki reached a settlement with VW in regard to such arbitration proceedings on 10 February 2016. Accordingly, the arbitration proceedings have been concluded. 2.
