2011 Volkswagen VW Jetta TDI Wagon– Glass Roof - Extended Warranty

Up for auction is my 76 year old mom’s VW Jetta Turbo Diesel Wagon (Black on Black) with the Panorama Glass Roof.   The story of this car really is the proverbial old lady driving it very carefully and slowly.  She and my dad bought it new, and since my dad passed, she is consolidating vehicles down to a single SUV since she needs a car that is great in the snow.   This car is garage kept and has approximately 27,300 miles. 

In addition to the cleanliness of the car, my mom and dad also took the car to the dealer for every milestone service.   So the car has all documents regarding service and maintenance.   In addition to the factory 3 year warranty, they purchased an additional 3-year warranty which is the Fidelity Platinum package – Yes this is in fact the authorized VW factory warranty.  There are other warranty providers out there but Fidelity is the VW primary factory authorized warranty provider.  The car and the extended warranty were purchased October 22, 2010 and it has the 6 Year 72,000 mile extended warranty which covers through 10/22/2016 or 72,000 miles.  The cost of this warranty was $1,732.  It has 2.5 years left.   The value of this warranty with 2.5 years left is $1,443.  And if you were to buy a similar VW privately without the warranty, you could not add the Fidelity warranty.

 

The pro rated value of the warranty is being added to the Average Kelly Blue Book value and the NADA value to arrive at a Buy It Now Price.

 

According to NADA, the value of this car is as follows:

Clean Trade-in $20,025 and Clean Retail is $22,875 – Average is $21,450

According to KBB the value of this car is as follows:

Excellent condition Trade In is $19,317 and Excellent condition private party sale is $21,017 – Average is $20,167

The Buy It Now Price is the average of the 2 averages above ($20,808), plus $1,443 for the prorated extended warranty. So, the price to take it today is $22,251.  I’ve set the reserve a little under that, but this is a fair deal by all standards, and it’s a very lightly used and well maintained TDI.

 

There are a couple of scratches on the wheels but nothing major, there are also some light scratches on the rear bumper which have been photographed up close.  They would likely buff out but I can’t promise that.  The car is black on black and there are no flaws on the interior anywhere.  There are also no dings anywhere.  It has blue tooth and heated front seats that work great.  We went overboard with photos to make it as absolutely clear as possible.   She is fine from top to bottom and front to back.

European car sales up 8% in February

Sat, 22 Mar 2014

Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.

Volkswagen may soon have remedy for more cheating diesels

Tue, May 10 2016

Nearly a half-million motorists who own Volkswagens equipped with 2.0-liter engines have known for a few weeks the company might wind up buying back their vehicles as part of a settlement surrounding the company's emissions cheating. But about 85,000 drivers who own similarly afflicted diesels with 3.0-liter engines have been stuck without a remedy. They may not be waiting much longer. Bloomberg reports that Volkswagen will soon propose a fix for vehicles, including those from Audi and Porsche, equipped with 3.0-liter engines that will include new software and a new catalytic converter for the vehicles. Discussions with federal regulators are ongoing, according to the news outlet. "We are cooperating with the regulatory agencies and working with them on an approved solution," says Audi spokesperson Mark Clothier. "Beyond that, we cannot comment on ongoing investigations." Regulators have alleged that the company's 3.0-liter engines contain "defeat devices," illegal software that allows a vehicle to detect when it's undergoing an emissions test and turn off pollution control during real-world driving. The defeat device allows these vehicles to increase emissions of nitrogen oxide up to nine times the Environmental Protection Agency's allowable threshold. Affected 3.0-liter vehicles include the 2014 Volkswagen Toureg, 2015 Porsche Cayenne and the 2016 Audi A6 Quattro, A7 Quattro, A8, A8L and Q5. Volkswagen is slated to finalize its plans for buying back the afflicted 2.0-liter cars and potentially offer those motorists "substantial compensation" for their troubles by June 21, and it's possible that a formal announcement on the 3.0-liter vehicles would come at the same time.

VW debuts Get Happy Super Bowl ad

Mon, 28 Jan 2013


Brace yourself for another tidal wave of Super Bowl commercials. Volkswagen has released its spot for this year's big game. Set to air during the second quarter, the Get Happy spot follows one jubilant office worker as he makes his way through the day, spreading joy wherever he goes. The source of his happiness? A Volkswagen Beetle, of course. Now, if you're wondering why a gaggle of white guys are running around on your screen with Jamaican accents, it will help to know the spot is part of a larger Get Happy campaign featuring Jimmy Cliff.
The first ad in the series featured the artist singing his rendition of "C'Mon, Get Happy," complete with a little help from some notorious unhappy YouTube stars. You can take a look at the new ad before it airs below, along with the complete press release for a little more background.
