2001 Volkswagen Jetta Rare Glx Vr6 With 5 Speed Manual No Reserve on 2040-cars
Year:2001
Mileage:149683

I am selling my rare 2001 Jetta GLX. These are top of the line for the Jetta's. It has power everything including sunroof, heated leather seats, Monsoon stereo, etc. I will give you a breakdown of everything on the car:
Mechanics: The car has 149683 on the odometer. The car runs great with plenty of power. It has a 5 speed manual transmission and VR6 engine. The check engine light is on and it reads emissions workshop on the onboard computer. I am assuming this means it needs an O2 sensor. I just replaced the seals for the oil cooler, put a new coil pack on it (old one had a crack), and new Bosch Iridium plugs. It has a small coolant leak that I believe is coming from the "crack pipe." Besides those two issues everything is great on the car. All the power works and has a great sounding stereo for factory. It has brand new BF Goodrich tires all the way around. Body: Body is in pretty good shape. There are no major dents on the car. The driver side fender has some peeling clear coat on the top and there are two small spots on the front of the hood that the paint was chipped and it has some surface rust that can be knocked off and touched up. There is no rust on the frame or anywhere on the body. Interior: The interior is in great shape on the car. The seats are perfect with no tears or rips anywhere. The dash does not have any cracks in it anywhere. The floors are clean with just a vacuum needed to make it perfect. The trunk carpet is good as well. I think the front seats had covers on them most of the time and the covers are still in the trunk. All in all the car is in good shape and is fun to drive. I bought it as a gas saver due to my other vehicle being a full size truck. I just do not know very much about VW so I am selling it to buy a car I know more about how to work on. I do have it for sale or trade locally so if it is gone before the auction ends then I will end the auction. If you have any questions about the car you can email, call, or text me, 864-254-8572 On Jan-26-14 at 14:34:40 PST, seller added the following information:I took the car to Auto Zone today to have them read the check engine light because I noticed it had a little skip. They hooked up the OBDII and it is not an O2 sensor that is bad. It is actually the Cam Shaft Position sensor. I thought this was good news because the part is $68 on ebay, see the link below, which is cheaper than the O2 sensor. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Audi-Porsche-VW-EuroVan-Jetta-Phaeton-Touareg-Engine-Camshaft-Position-Sensor-/190707088822?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A2001%7CMake%3AVolkswagen%7CModel%3AJetta%7CSubmodel%3AGLX%7CEngine+-+Liter_Display%3A2.8L&hash=item2c67073db6&vxp=mtr |

VW agrees to halt next-gen rally car development to help others stay in WRC
Sat, 22 Jun 2013Volkswagen has petitioned the FIA to hold on to the current specifications for cars in the World Rally Championship, according to Autosport.com. The move is evidently an effort to keep as many competitors in the sport as possible, despite the fact that using the current spec racers may actually hurt Volkswagen's chances at winning. The three factory teams currently competing in the WRC are at the end of a three-year homologation cycle at the end of 2013, and new cars are expected to bow next year. But developing new racers could cost as much as $4.7 million.
That price tag would put M-Sport (which fields Ford racers) out of the WRC game for 2014 and would put Citroën participation in question as well. VW has already begun work on the next iteration of its Polo R WRC, and the hatch has nabbed four wins in six rounds this season. Now it appears that car won't bow until at least 2015. The FIA has officially agreed to freeze homologation of new WRC cars until the end of next season.
VW launches special edition Touareg X
Tue, 03 Dec 2013Volkswagen is no stranger to special editions, but its Touareg SUV has remained largely unspecial in terms of exclusive trims or unique packages. That's changed with the announcement of the Touareg X, a 1,000-unit run based on the V6 TDI Lux trim - mid-range diesel model, between the navigation-equipped TDI Sport and the TDI R-Line.
The already special Touareg gets 19-inch "Moab" wheels, LED taillights (to go along with its LED DRLs) and "Touareg X" badging, while all 1,000 units will be painted Moonlight Blue Pearl. Tweaks in the cabin are equally light, with a black-on-black-on-black color scheme dominating - black Vienna leather, a black headliner and piano black trim. Aluminum bits make an appearance in the form of the door sills and pedals, although that's about it.
Other than those few aesthetic tweaks, the Touareg X is equipped largely like the Touareg Lux on which it's based. That means navigation, a panoramic sunroof, power seats, LED running lights, dual-zone air conditioning and heated power seats, among other tech pieces. Pricing starts at $56,170, making for a slight bump of $1,195 over the standard Touareg Lux.
VW XL1 priced at $169,000 in UK, only 30 will be sold there
Wed, Jul 2 2014Volkswagen has announced the pricing of its XL1 diesel plug-in hybrid for the UK, according to Car magazine. The small, uber-efficient two-seater will start at GBP98,515, or roughly $168,930 at current exchange rates. Additionally, only 30 units of the XL1 will be sold throughout the UK, giving it a rareness appropriate for its lofty price. It's nice to finally be able to stop speculating about the XL1's price. Even as recently as the first XL1 delivery in Germany, we were still mostly in the dark concerning the cost of the slippery VW. But is the price worth it, especially considering that the much sportier BMW i8 can be had for just a bit more (GBP99,895, or $171,460, in the UK)? Car seems to think so, noting that the XL1 is an eco and technology pioneer, and saying that its cost of ownership is "merely the price of progress." Plus, that includes the bragging rights of owning the world's most fuel-efficient car. The XL1's two-cylinder turbo-diesel engine displaces just eight-tenths of a liter and produces 47 horsepower. The internal combustion engine operates alongside a 26-horsepower electric motor powered by a 5.5-kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Despite its 2.64-gallon fuel tank, the XL1 has a maximum driving range of over 700 miles thanks to a 261-mpg rating (based on the European cycle). Unfortunately, we won't be able to do any bladder-busting, nonstop Chicago to DC road trips any time soon, as VW has no plans to bring the XL1 to North America - not that one would relish the experience of dicing it up with America's massive trucks and SUVs. If you want to drive one, you'll have to go to Europe, and you'd better have a very large piggy bank you're prepared to break open.
