Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Please see description below."
Condition is very good considering the year. I was told it was restored a few years ago. Other than a few scuffs and one small 2" blemish near driver's side door car shows very well. The paint still shines and she runs great. Starts easily and shifts through all the gears smoothly. Top is in good condition other than a couple patches that blend in nicely. Car has a new battery, fuel pump and rubber mats. The paint color is not original to the car. Original paint color was a yellow/orange color. I can tell you this car has been grey for as long as I can remember, 15 plus years. Eurosport tires are in excellent condition.
This is a one owner car. I purchased the car from a 96 year old guy that lives in my neighborhood. He loved this car and always maintained it. He would never have sold me his car if he could still drive it. Due to recent vision impairment he can no longer drive and decided to sell the car. I bought the car with intentions of using it but have since decided this car is not exactly my style. Definately a cool car just not my taste. The open title is still in the original owner's name and is dated 1979.
The bad : Missing headrests and front seat belts. Gas gauge does not work. Front seats do not slide back and forth. Very small engine oil leak, you might find a couple droplets after a few days.
Shipping and payment : I prefer someone come look at the car in person and pay for it in person cash or certified bank check.
Call 413-455-7001 if you have any ?s or would like to set up an appointment.

VW says it has sold over 100,000 TDI diesels in America this year
Thu, 26 Dec 2013Volkswagen Group of America has lit oil-burning fireworks to celebrate the sales of more than 100,000 TDI Clean Diesel vehicles in the US between its VW and Audi brands this year. According to VW, that means it is responsible for more than 75 percent of diesel-engined cars and SUVs sold here - perhaps not surprising when the two brands offer a total of 12 diesel models.
What might be surprising is that the number of diesels isn't far off the estimated sales of 90,000 battery electric vehicles and PHEVs, with 15,000 of those accounted for by the Tesla Model S, another 12,000 or so being the Toyota Prius PHEV.
VW's keen to play up the ease of making diesel part of your life, stressing that it doesn't need any change to the refueling infrastructure and that "this is a technology delivering real answers to society's concerns about fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions without compromises."
Volkswagen New Midsize Coupe Concept is an aspirational Jetta
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Meet the Volkswagen baby CC. Okay, that's not really it's name (VW calls it the New Midsize Coupe Concept), but this sleek, four-door coupe draws more than a little inspiration from the CC while riding on VW's MQB platform.
It's a looker, we think, and is an eye-pleasing departure from the bland styling of the current Jetta. The sleeker front end is complemented by a wider body overall (it's wider than a Passat), while the more sporting roofline and the sharp rear fascia gives the New Midsize Coupe a decidedly sporting character. LED head- and taillights add a bit more personality to this already stylish design.
Thanks to its 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder, it should get along rather sportingly, as well. The run to 62 miles per hour takes just 6.5 seconds thanks to the 217 horsepower on offer. A seven-speed dual-clutch automatic is also fitted, and contributes to an estimated 37 miles per gallon.
