I've had this one for about a year, it's been a great driver. since it's been warm I've been driving it every day again. Located in Salt Lake City, UT

needs:
-little bit leaky out of the oil pan, I figure whatever though, it's a MKI that's the only real problem at this point.

good stuff:
new front outer CV boots when I bought it. new thermostatic fan switch. everything else is fine as far as I can tell. it looks good, it's dirty inside but h4s are cool, I have a front bumper for it, thumbs up all around except that drippy pan listed above. comes with a spiffy front valence, a strut tower support bar (full race truck!!), sits on racelands and drop plates, I think I have another set of drop plates that bring it up a little too. tires are fine. starts every time I try as long as the cold start is pulled and sometimes I have to give it a little throttle on the first start, then it's fine all day.

it's been a really handy truck and a great commuter and work truck for fixing up my house. I bought a tacoma though so now I don't need it for anything.

no rust on the strut towers at all, only rust is in the bed, with only one small rust hole on the right rear fender.

this also comes with an extra engine for it that needs rebuilding but it also comes with a turbo kit with a banged up downpipe and the oil lines all done on it. looks like it'll need a hone, rings, and head work. i was going to drive it while building that engine for it this spring but I'm going back to school and moving out of town in a few months so I need to get rid of my projects.

also comes with a vac. pump rebuild kit and a new thermostat, these parts were acting up in the cold of winter when I drove it a couple times, but I switched the vac pump with a good used one, and the thermostat seems to be working fine now.

when in doubt, ask before you bid. I did my best to describe the truck here. if you bid, you are committed to buying the truck. i will help load the truck to the best of my abilities but I will not arrange shipping for you. $500 deposit due via paypal within 24 hours of auction close, balance due in cash or bank check only within 7 days, car must be gone within 7 days of auction close.

Volkswagen Tiguan and Touareg take the R-Line

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Volkswagen's Detroit Auto Show presence is big on utility this year, with the CrossBlue three-row concept vehicle occupying the lion's share of the limelight, both literally and figuratively. But that isn't stopping Volkswagen from lavishing attention on its already established crossover and sport utility vehicles with new R-Line derivatives. The Tiguan and its big brother Touareg are getting a host of look-faster items to increase their sporting appeal.
On the outside, the Tiguan R-Line receives handsome 19-inch alloys peering out from beneath fender extensions, premium lighting (bi-Xenon headlamps with LED daytime running lamps), along with matching side skirts and a liftgate spoiler. On the inside, sportier accommodations include aluminum trim and a flat-bottom steering wheel with paddle shifters. As with other R-Line models, there are no powertrain modifications to go with the more aggressive visuals (that being the province of R standalone performance models like the R32), though the suspension has been firmed up an unspecified amount. The Tiguan R-Line will be available in front- or all-wheel drive configuration.

Volkswagen forced to sell stake in Suzuki

Mon, Aug 31 2015

The six-year-long failed marriage between Volkswagen and Suzuki has finally come to an end. Almost. An arbitration panel in London issued its final verdict which, according to a VW press release, cleared Suzuki in terminating the agreement, so VW now needs to get rid of its 19.9-percent share. However, the tribunal's decision said VW performed all of its obligations and Suzuki didn't – the Japanese carmaker should have given VW last-call rights for a delivery of diesel engines, but failed to. The breach opens Suzuki up to damage claim, but so far VW only says it reserves the right to sue. Now that Suzuki has an outside investor to provide funds it meant to get from VW, perhaps both can get back to their reasons for being. The press release is below. Ruling in arbitration proceedings: Cooperation between Volkswagen and Suzuki deemed terminated - Arbitral tribunal confirms Volkswagen met contractual obligations and finds that Suzuki has ordinary right to terminate agreement based on reasonable notice - Volkswagen to dispose of its 19.9 percent stake in Suzuki and expects positive effect on Company's earnings and liquidity from transaction - Arbitrators also find that Suzuki breached its contractual obligations to Volkswagen under the agreement and that Volkswagen has right to claim damages Wolfsburg, 30 August 2015 - An arbitral tribunal in London has announced its ruling in the dispute between Suzuki Motor Corporation and Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft. As a result, cooperation between the two parties is deemed terminated. The arbitrators confirmed that Volkswagen met its contractual obligations under the cooperation agreement and found that Suzuki has terminated the agreement upon reasonable notice. Volkswagen will therefore now dispose of its 19.9 percent stake in Suzuki and expects a positive effect on the Company's earnings and liquidity from the transaction. The arbitral tribunal also confirmed that Suzuki breached its contractual obligations to Volkswagen under the agreement and that Volkswagen has the right to claim damages. "We welcome the clarity created by this ruling. The tribunal rejected Suzuki's claims of breach and found that Volkswagen met its contractual obligations under the cooperation agreement. Nevertheless, the arbitrators found that termination of the cooperation agreement by Suzuki on reasonable notice was valid, and that Volkswagen must dispose of the shares purchased.

NA auto output to reach 11-year peak

Thu, 13 Jun 2013

According to Automotive News, automakers are expected to manufacture 16 million light vehicles in North America in 2013. That's up 500,000 units from last year and marks the largest number since 2002. The prediction comes courtesy of LMC Automotive and IHS Automotive, which point to the improving US economy as a bellwether for total production. LMC Automotive says North America will produce 16 million vehicles while IHS has a slightly more optimistic forecast of 16.1 million units. A total of seven automakers are slated to increase production on the continent this year. Nissan is set to see the largest jump at 20 percent over last year.
Volkswagen, meanwhile, is one of the only manufacturers predicted to scale back production. Analysts expect the German company's output to fall by 23 percent to 170,000 units, thanks in part to slow demand for the Volkswagen Passat and Jetta.
