Amazing car and performance with this 2004 Volkswagen Phaeton - Black

Perfect sedan, adult driven, V8 engine tuned to 360HP, Black, Bentley OEM wheels (19"), 140,000 well taken care miles. Clean title, Leather seats, humongous trunk, Amazing sound system, front and rear massage chairs and front and rear climate controls. The most amazing car VW has ever built. Has been rock solid for me. Perfect for a large family. The back seat space will fit anything! All buttons working, windows, etc...

Small cosmetic issues in passenger seat (small rip, fixable) and a small scratch in passenger fender and bumper. (very small). Annoying TPMS, that's it. No dings,  No leaks, still looks sharp. 

Get the performance of an Audi RS6 with the size of an Audi A8L or Audi RS6 and the Luxury and feel of a Bentley Flying Spur. Better than a BMW 7 Series or Mercedes S class. 

I am the 2nd owner of the Phaeton, and have taken good care of it for the last 6 years. It is a late MY 2004, 5 seater, with rear climate control and massage seats. It has 140,000 miles. Here is what it has in extras:

- Added in the Stage 1 chip software to boost HP to 356HP and removed the limiter 3 years ago. I have documentation & videos! 

- Facelifted OEM front that added 2007 chrome bits to the foglights (not available in other US cars)

- Has extra OEM wooden handles and wooden covers for the cupholders

- 19" OEM Bentleys from a 2005 Bentley Flying Spur

- 2010 full set of navigation discs - BMW

- Everything works inside - all buttons.


Work already done this year:

- Thermostat, Timing Belt and Starter were all done at dealership at 135K miles (1st timing belt was done at 80K miles)

- New Kessy unit 

- New Brake Pads

- Fresh Auxiliary Battery


Needs attention later:

- Small rip on the leather seat (front passenger seat) right at the very edge, so its very fixable - quoted $120

- Will need new tires and fresh control arms (optional). 

- A small scratch at the very bottom of the passenger side front fender and a tiny one in front bumper - will need retouching. No dings.

- The wheels still look amazing, if you can, a small refinish would make you smile. 

Car has always been taken care at dealer or small issues at specialized VW independent places. 

This is a perfect way to get started on a Phaeton. Price is very reasonable. I already have purchased another car, so I'd like to sell my Phaeton and I'm not in a rush. Please ping me and let me know your Q's. Reserve is very reasonable.   If you use BUY IT NOW - Will get it detailed again for you prior to purchase. 

Selling because I've already purchased other vehicle and have very limited parking. 

Have all service records from VW Dealership. Major services all done this Summer already (yes, timing belt, brakes, starter, fresh battery) and have owned this car as the 2nd owner for the last 5 years. 

Buy it now with a very reasonable reserve price –  

Payment via Paypal and I require an immediate deposit of $500 same day as auction ends. (Refundable after 10 days if not buying car) Full payment within 3 days of auction end. NO EXCEPTIONS. Will help drive to transport company. 

Motivated to sell but not in a rush.

You can see the car in Milpitas, San Jose or Sunnyvale if you are a local of the Bay Area.

New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise

Mon, 18 Feb 2013

Convertibles make you do funny things. Ask someone if they'd drive a hardtop in near freezing temperatures with all the windows down and they might not even answer, thinking the question so ridiculous. Give that same person a convertible they love and you might just have to ask them to please put the top up even when snow is on the ground.
That guy has to take precautions to enjoy his proclivities, and as this new ad for the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible shows, not everyone understands. Have a watch below, and note that there's just one woman in the minute-long spot, and she's nowhere near the car. Seriously, why didn't VW run this commercial during the Super Bowl?

Volkswagen CrossBlue Coupe is a green fun-machine we want to drive

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

Think back to January's Detroit Auto Show. Those of you that are fans of the Volkswagen brand, impressed with green technology or simply fall into the "diesel geek" category, will almost certainly remember VW's CrossBlue concept with its diesel/electric hybrid powertrain, seating for seven, and somewhat awkward crossover styling. It was an impressive piece of future tech, to be sure, though it left something to be desired in the, well, desirability department.
Here in Shanghai, VW has brought along a CrossBlue Coupe concept that would seem to include most of the goodness of the original, but flavored with more sport and style this time around.
The CrossBlue Coupe makes use of the same electric drive components as the larger three-row concept: two electric motors (front and rear) powered by a 9.8-kWh lithium-ion battery. However, where the original concept made use of a TDI four-cylinder, the Coupe substitutes a 295-horsepower, direct-injection, gasoline-burning V6.

VW recalling 2.64M vehicles worldwide over engine, light issues

Thu, 14 Nov 2013

Volkswagen is staging a massive, worldwide recall that's already grown from 1.68 million to 2.64 million vehicles and covers three different issues across a number of vehicles. We already reported on 61,000 Tiguans getting recalled over lighting issues - that was just in the US. Globally, however, VW will be recalling 800,000 Tiguans, according to Automotive News, with the focus on CUVs built between 2008 and 2011. The issue with the Tiguan relates to a simple fuse swap, so this is rather unremarkable, aside from the sheer number of vehicles being fixed. The real, troubling issues relate to gearboxes and pickups.
239,000 Amarok pickups (pictured right) are being recalled over fuel leaks, while 1.6 million vehicles are being recalled to swap the synthetic oil in dual-clutch transmissions with mineral oil. Now, the transmission issue is one for the global Volkswagen Group to address, not just the VW brand - vehicles from Audi, Škoda and Seat use the same seven-speed DSG and are covered under the recall, as well.
Why the switch from synthetic to mineral oil? Apparently, using the synthetic oil in a DSG and then subjecting it to stop-and-go conditions or heavy loads in a hot and humid climate can lead to electronic malfunctions, according to a Volkswagen press release. The switch, from the sounds of it, is largely a preventative measure.
