Volkswagen 1960 Karmann Ghia Convertible / California Car Vw on 2040-cars
Powell, Ohio, United States
|
VW 1960 Karmann Ghia convertible. Great looking vintage Karmann Ghia from California finished in a light mint green exterior with matching interior and like new convertible top and matching boot cover. New Coker Classic white sidewall tires, new exhaust system with stainless steel tailpipes. Recent rebuilt front suspension with new king pin set and link pin set. It's had a recent tune up, oil change and had the brake fluid changed and brakes adjusted. The original 36HP engine has been replaced with a newer 1600 dual port VW engine and runs excellent. The previous owner converted the original 6 volt battery to a 12 volt system but has some additional services needed to finish the conversion as the horn, windshield wipers and original radio are not working. The previous owner installed an MP3 hook-up with speakers in the rear and plug-in contained inside the glove box. The speakers are sitting in the rear and easily removed as they are not affixed to the interior. The headlights, tail lights, and brakes lights are working, but the 2 back-up lights attached to the rear bumper are disconnected. The heater is disconnected. The original chrome door handles and interior trim is in very good original condition and retains its original ivory colored knobs, buttons, etc. Original bumpers are in good original driver quality condition with no major issues. The passenger door window as some gap between the window and the weatherstripping. Whenever we drove the Ghia, we got lots of "thumbs up" and admiring looks. The original Hazet Tool kit attached to the spare tire is NOT included in this auction. If you have any questions or further pictures please contact us. I had the car shipped from California and can recommend an excellent shipper to the winner of the auction. We will not arrange shipping for this car, but will assist the buyer in making it an easy transaction. The 14 photos show the car well. Be sure to use the enlarge and zoom features.

Volkswagen Tiguan and Touareg take the R-Line
Mon, 14 Jan 2013
Volkswagen's Detroit Auto Show presence is big on utility this year, with the CrossBlue three-row concept vehicle occupying the lion's share of the limelight, both literally and figuratively. But that isn't stopping Volkswagen from lavishing attention on its already established crossover and sport utility vehicles with new R-Line derivatives. The Tiguan and its big brother Touareg are getting a host of look-faster items to increase their sporting appeal.
On the outside, the Tiguan R-Line receives handsome 19-inch alloys peering out from beneath fender extensions, premium lighting (bi-Xenon headlamps with LED daytime running lamps), along with matching side skirts and a liftgate spoiler. On the inside, sportier accommodations include aluminum trim and a flat-bottom steering wheel with paddle shifters. As with other R-Line models, there are no powertrain modifications to go with the more aggressive visuals (that being the province of R standalone performance models like the R32), though the suspension has been firmed up an unspecified amount. The Tiguan R-Line will be available in front- or all-wheel drive configuration.

Autoblog Podcast #327:
$1.4B hedge fund suit against Porsche dismissed
Wed, 19 Mar 2014Investors have canvassed courts in Europe and the US to repeatedly sue Porsche over its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen in 2008 (see here, and here and here), and they have repeatedly failed to win any cases. You can add another big loss to the tally, with Bloomberg reporting that the Stuttgart Regional Court has dismissed a 1.4-billion euro ($1.95B US) lawsuit, the decision explained by the court's assertion that the investors would have lost on their short bets even if Porsche hadn't misled them.
Examining the hedge funds' motives for stock purchases and the bets that VW share prices would fall, judge Carola Wittig said that the funds didn't base their decisions on the key bits of "misinformation," and instead were participating simply in "highly speculative and naked short selling," only to get caught out.
With other cases still pending, the continued streak of victories bodes well for Porsche's courtroom fortunes, since judges will expect new information to consider overturning precedent. If there is any new info, it could come from the potential criminal cases still outstanding against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and CFO Holger Härter, who were both indicted on charges of market manipulation.
