Hello and thank you for looking at my auction. 


Up for sale today is a very clean 2000 VW Jetta GLS Sedan.  This Jetta is in great condition and has just PASSED MARYLAND INSPECTION.  As you can see, this is a nice vehicle.  It is finished in  Dark Blue and the paint on this Jetta looks good.  Of course being a 13 year old vehicle there are blemishes and small dings.  Also the paint has faded some on the rear bumper but the car looks great overall.  All of the body lines are smooth and even.  All of the glass and lenses are intact.  The wheels show very well and are wrapped in a set of tires with well over 75% tread remaining.  Please take your time and review each of the photos carefully. 

The interior of this Jetta is in very good condition.  The Tan interior compliments well with the Dark Blue exterior and shows well.  The dash is clean and has no faded spots or excessive wear.  The carpets show well throughout the interior.  The door panels are clean and intact.  The power windows, locks and mirrors all work properly.  The air condition was just serviced and works well and the radio and speakers also work well. The seats are clean and comfortable and the trunk is also clean and well kept.

Mechanically this Jetta is in great running and driving condition.  The engine starts easy and runs smooth.  There are no leaks and the engine does not smoke.  The suspension is nice and tight as it should be.  The steering feels neutral and responsive.  The brakes are strong and stop this Jetta with no problems.  The Brake pad warning light is lit on the dash but my mechanic says it has over 1/3 pad left (sometimes the sensor gets bent a little and causes the light to come on way before the brakes need to be changed).  The engine keeps proper temperature and oil pressure at all times.  There is a airbag warning light on which is common on VW's due to their complex airbag system setting it off even when seats are adjusted sometimes, but this does not affect drivability and the car passed MD inspection with it on.  This Jetta drives down the road confidently and feels solid.  The engine makes good power.  The automatic transmission engages smoothly and shifts as it should.  Out on the highway this Jetta cruises effortlessly.  She goes straight down the road with no complaints and can be driven with ease.  Pride in ownership shows throughout this vehicle.  Please take the time to read this entire description.  This vehicle is represented accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and ability.  Car can be viewed anytime, just send me a message to set up appointment.

This vehicle had a new battery and a few lights changed to pass inspection and also had A/C serviced.
 
 
Buying a vehicle over the internet can be scary so I take many actions to make you feel secure with your purchase:

1. I take the time/effort and spend the money to get my vehicles through Maryland safety inspection. Maryland has one of the toughest safety inspections in the country so if a vehicle passes Maryland safety inspection "I believe" it will pass any states safety inspection.

2. I give a very detailed report of the vehicle Interior / Exterior / Mechanical condition. I have a mechanical background, "but I am not a car mechanic". I have been buying and selling cars for over 25 years so I know a lot about cars. I am as honest and accurate as possible about vehicles that I sell. You can always ask me questions about vehicles that I am selling or arrange to come see the vehicle before bidding.

3. I upload over 20 pictures of every vehicle and will try my best to send you any specific pictures that you ask for.
 
 
BEWARE OF VEHICLES THAT ARE NOT INSPECTED!!! Many people think they are getting a great deal on vehicles they buy on EBay for inexpensive prices only to find out when they take it through inspection that it needs thousands of dollars worth of work. I usually spend over a thousand dollars and put in hours of work on each vehicle to get it ready to pass Maryland inspection.

 
 
My vehicles are also for sale locally and auction may be ended early in accordance with Ebay policies.  
 

 
A $149 DEALER DOCUMENT FEE WILL BE CHARGED ON ALL SALES (INCLUDING BEST OFFERS) AND INCLUDES A TEMPORARY TAG IF NEEDED (proof of insurance and all information for title/registration is needed 24 hours before temporary tag can be issued).
 
 
A non-refundable deposit of $250 is required within 24 hours of auction close.  Remaining balance is required within 7 days of auction close by Cash in Person or Certified Bank Funds (PayPal will not be accepted for balance).  Title and vehicle will not be released until ALL funds have cleared.  Buyer must contact seller to make arrangements for vehicle pick-up within 48 hours of auction close and pick-up vehicle within 7 days.  Vehicles not picked up within 7 days will be charged a $10/day storage charge unless prior arrangements have been made. 
 
 
Thanks for looking and good luck biding.

German judge 'inclined to dismiss' hedge fund lawsuit against Porsche

Fri, Feb 27 2015

Last year, around two dozen investors, including hedge funds, leveled a 1.4 billion euro ($1.95 billion at the time) lawsuit against Porsche in connection with the automaker's attempted takeover of Volkswagen in 2008. The Stuttgart Regional Court dismissed the case. Around 19 of those plaintiffs are heading back to court to appeal the ruling and still hope to get 1.2 billion euros ($1.4 billion). However, according to one German judge, the chances for success aren't any better this time around. "On balance it's our view that we consider the lawsuit, or the appeal, to be unpromising for several reasons," Gerhard Ruf, a judge in Stuttgart, said to Reuters. "We are inclined to dismiss the case." The court's ruling on the appeal will be announced on March 26. The investors' case hinges on Porsche's strategy surrounding the botched takeover. The sports car maker said that it wasn't trying to control VW, when in fact it was. These hedge funds had bet against Volkswagen stock, but the share price surged when Porsche's plan inevitably came to light. Investors have sued the sports car company multiple times since then in attempts to recoup billions of dollars. However, none of the lawsuits have been successful, whether attempted in the US or Germany. Former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and and CFO Holger Haerter might still stand trial for the alleged stock manipulation, though.

VW makes $23K on every Porsche sold, more than Bentley or Lamborghini

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

It's a good time to be in the luxury car business. In Volkswagen Group's financial report for the 2013 fiscal year, it is revealed that that Porsche enjoyed an operating margin of 18 percent. That means the Stuttgart brand made on average about $23,200 per car sold, according to BusinessWeek. Bentley wasn't far behind, and Audi (which was combined with Lamborghini) posted a 10.1 percent margin. This compares to only around 2.9 percent for the Volkswagen brand.
"Luxury brands are on fire," said Dave Sullivan, an industry analyst at AutoPacific. He said that the average profit margin is between six and eight percent. Brands like Porsche and Bentley have the benefit of competing in rarefied markets. Buyers looking at one their vehicles have fewer models to shop against and don't care as much about price. They can also charge more for options, which further boosts income, according to BusinessWeek.
In a way, we should be more impressed by the continued success from Audi. Its models generally have direct competitors in every segment from the other premium automakers. Plus, their buyers aren't the captains of industry who are shopping for a Bentley. Still, the Four Rings is leading rivals in sales so far this year.
