The Bug looks and runs great has a 1.6L 1584cc rebuilt engine with low miles looks great has dent on rear hood and broken tail light lens from basket ball hoop falling on it has some paint defects scratches marks etc as does all used cars but nothing major. mechanically I just bought a new battery rear inner wheel bearings rear outer wheel bearings rear brake drums wheel seals parking brake cable right rear wheel cylinder may need front brakes soon pedal gets soft sometimes and needs to be pumped I also have new steering wheel but needs the adapter to fit I also have original front seats not in car. I listed all the problems above this car just needs some TLC there is nothing wrong with it that will cost a lot of money. the car is ready for road I drive it to work 2 to 3 times a week with no problems I purchased the car from Florida and garaged it here in CT so it has never seen snow. I Love the car but I am moving and I am not going to have a garage to store it in and just do not want to see it rot away outside in our bad winters. this car turns heads everywhere and gets the camera phones going really a good looking bug.

VW Golf Sportsvan succeeds Golf Plus in Frankfurt
Sun, 08 Sep 2013
Just ahead of this week's Frankfurt Motor Show, Volkswagen has announced the world premiere of its Golf Sportsvan, a near-production concept that succeeds its Golf Plus. VW describes this compact family car as "one of the most versatile vehicles of the compact class," noting that it offers a mix of hatchback and minivan features in a sporty package.
That sportiness comes from the Sportsvan's styling (perhaps more sleek wagon than minivan) and performance features it shares with the Golf GTI - including the XDS+ electronic differential lock, which is integrated into the Electronic Stability Control system to improve agility. At the same time, the Sportsvan's six engine options, which include a turbodiesel, are up to 19-percent more fuel-efficient than their predecessors.
VW confirms Audi's emissions test transmission anomalies
Mon, Nov 14 2016Just a week after reports that the California Air Resources Board (CARB) found an emissions cheat in some Audi automatic transmission software programs, parent company Volkswagen has come clean. As reported by Reuters, VW's response to an article by Munich's Sueddeutsche Zeitung stated that the adaptive shift functionality can "lead to incorrect and non-reproducible results." Adaptive shift programs alter the characteristics of a vehicle's transmission to suit different driving styles. Gentle driving will result in earlier shifts and lower engine revs, while hard-charging on the pedals and steering will make the transmission more responsive and hold gears longer. That adaptation can change over time or even on a short-term basis. And it can save fuel. The difference in this case is that is seems that the Audi transmissions were specifically programmed to detect emissions test conditions. As we explained in a previous article, one of those test conditions is keeping the wheel straight. Turning more than 15 degrees shuts the test mode off. According to Reuters, the US government is trying to determine whether this classifies as an emissions cheat device, although VW, Audi, and the EPA have not commented on the record. This latest accusation is separate from the larger VW diesel emissions scandal. Related Video: Image Credit: Getty Editorial Government/Legal Green Audi Volkswagen Emissions vw diesel scandal
