California Volkswagen Cabriolet 29800 Original Miles on 2040-cars
La Quinta, California, United States
|
You are bidding on a rust free original 29800 mile Volkswagen Cabriolet. This is a desert car from LaQuinta, California where the clear title is in my name. This is quite an amazing car, was owned by a local resident who used the cabriolet as a golf car until he could no longer drive. I purchased the car from his family and have never used it, the car is still in the same condition, the paint has a light patina and as far as I,m concernerd it should stay that way so I have done no polishing, detailing or touch ups, this is the way a classic should be kept. Also no detailing means nothing to hide,what you see is what you get. Older records and past titles help document the mileage as well as the sellers family information but I will not warrant the mileage. The car looks like it,s mileage, perfect original interior, the seats show no wear or sag. It has been repainted years ago and still looks great, hard to tell that it has been repainted as it was a professional job. The seals around the hood are getting old and show there age, the top is fine except for a seam separation around the rear window from the California sun. The car starts first turn ,runs perfect with no smoke, smells or strange noises other than the air cooled Volkswagen signature sound. Shifts smooth, stong clutch, newer tires and full service including oil and fluids as well as brakes, the car is very road worthy.Steering and suspension are tight and positive. Has had recent tune up and maintainance from a local shop. Previous owner liked the look of Porsche 356 rims and hubcaps and put them on the vehicle, I do not have the originals. I am a 356 Porsche collector but appreciate a clean unmolested car and this is why I bought this Volkswagen but it just dosent fit in with my collection so off it goes to a new owner. The top shows a split seam above the rear window but does not warrant a new top at all. The car is in Southern California and can be shipped anywhere at the buyers expense but I am more than willing to assist a safe move wherever the destination. I have a low reserve on the car so I am sure it will sell. Any questions feel free to email me and I also have a photoshare with around a 100 detailed pictures to help you decide if this is the car for you, email me for the link if you are serious.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
TN politicians may push to end VW incentives if plant goes union
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Volkswagen's Chattanooga Assembly Plant is scheduled to vote on whether to unionize in the coming days, but Tennessee state lawmakers are threatening to deny future tax subsidies to the factory, if the vote is successful. The factory is currently the only Volkswagen plant worldwide that is not unionized.
The states's Republican lawmakers have been particularly vocal against the union vote. Tennessee state senator Bo Watson said during a press conference that VW would have a "very tough time" with future incentives if the vote were successful, according to Automotive News. Tennessee House Majority Leader Gerald McCormick said the "heavy hand" of the UAW is not welcome there. VW has drawn criticism from both sides because it has allowed both pro- and anti-union groups to speak to workers and hand out leaflets.
Roughly 1,500 factory employees will vote on whether to unionize from February 12-14. If successful, the Chattanooga factory would be the first in the US organized under a German-style works council system where white- and blue-collar workers directly negotiate factory issues with the company's management.
Volkswagen throws a Polo-palooza with four new or upgraded models
Wed, 05 Mar 2014Volkswagen unveiled a parade of new and upgraded Polo models at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, including the Polo TSI BlueMotion, Polo TDI BlueMotion, Polo BlueGT and CrossPolo (pictured above). While they will likely never make an appearance this side of the pond, it is fun to see what European subcompact drivers will be driving later this year.
The new BlueMotion models represent the most efficient petrol and diesel options in their class, according to VW. The BlueMotion TDI offers just 73 horsepower from its diesel engine but gives the equivalent of 76 miles per gallon (US) in the EU test. The BlueMotion TSI brings a little more power with its 88-hp petrol engine and has a combined rating of 57 mpg (US) in the EU cycle.
The Polo BlueGT provides a balance of performance and economy, and for the 2014 model, it gains a 9-horsepower boost to its 1.4-liter turbocharged to give drivers 147 hp at the press of the accelerator. This year's car also has an optional Sport Select suspension with electronically controlled dampers to improve handling a bit. It's still fitted with active cylinder management to use as little gas as possible when cruising.
