1978 Vw Convertible Bug,super Beetle, Karmann on 2040-cars
Arlington, Washington, United States
|
1978 VW convertible fuel injected. Local one owner Washington state car. This car is on consignment at my dealership from the original owner. Title is free and clear Washington state. she has had this car from day one buying it off the showroom floor from a local vw dealer and is in good shape and mechanically well maintained over the year, making this 78 a turn key driver with minimum repairs needed. Body and paint are in good shape with virtually no visible rust on exterior of body. Paint is in above average shape for not being brand new, still having good shine Undercarriage does have a few rusted spots, as seen in my video’s but nothing that wouldn’t be expected for a Washington state car, that has been a driver for nearly 34 years. owner say’s she had it painted a number of years ago, late 90’s. top is in great shape for being many years old, functioning properly and still looking great inside and out. Interior is original and in good acceptable shape. lights are all in proper working order, radio, fuel gauge, speedo are still functional at this time. trunk area is clean and unmolested. Tires are in good shape along with brakes, brakes approx. 40%, but do still function properly as seen in my videos. would probably need replacing in the near future or we could do front and rear if negotiated in sell. engine has been well maintained and iis the 1st year of factory fuel injected. i light oil leaks that appear to be normal condition and nothing detrimental, expected condition, for a car being a daily driver for her. she is selling for only one reason, that being the clutch and stick shift purposes. Hard for her to shift through gears now. This is not a perfect car or was it just restored. but has been very well maintained and cared for as it appears in my photos and videos. I have taken lots of additional photos and videos of car starting and driving, also undercarriage. I hope this will help you in making a clear buying decision. Thanks for your time.

VW Golf TDI circles US on less than $300 of diesel
Wed, Jul 8 2015$294.98. That's how much it cost the Volkswagen team to drive across all 48 contiguous states in the union. Which is pretty impressive, but it's only part of the story. In an effort to demonstrate just how economical a conventional diesel engine can be, VW sent a team out from its US headquarters in Herndon, VA, in a Golf TDI. Their mission was to visit all the Lower 48 on as little fuel as possible. Over the course of 16 days, they traveled 8,233.5 miles, burned through 101.43 gallons of fuel, and marked a frankly astonishing average of 81.17 miles per gallon. As a result, the team – made up of hypermiling automotive journalist Wayne Gerdes and electronics engineer Bob Winger – picked up a new Guinness World Record for the lowest fuel consumption achieved in a non-hybrid car across the 48 contiguous states. The previous record, it's worth noting, had also been set by VW and Gerdes, who piloted a 2013 Passat TDI at just a hair under 80 mpg. But here's the kicker: in raising the diesel economy bar even higher, the team also beat the record for the same achievement in a hybrid vehicle by over six mpg. So the next time someone tries to tell you a hybrid is more efficient than a diesel (at least on the highway), you can point them towards this record.

Traveling 8,233.5 miles around America in 16 days on $294.98 of Shell® Diesel fuel, the Golf beat the previous mark of 77.99 mpg by more than 3 mpg, and also beat the hybrid vehicle record of 74.34 mpg by more than 6 mpg. "Covering 8,233.5 miles on just 101.43 gallons of Clean Diesel fuel is a remarkable accomplishment, and solid proof of the efficiency and fuel economy of Volkswagen's TDI® Clean Diesel vehicles," said Michael Horn, President and CEO, Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
European jury picks finalists for 2015 Car of the Year
Tue, Dec 16 2014There are countless Car of the Year awards handed out each year, and naturally, Europe has its own way of doing things. Every year, a panel of jurists representing seven publications in seven different languages and seven different countries get together to name their joint Car of the Year. The panel released a list of 32 candidates back in July, and it has now whittled that list down to seven nominees. The list consists of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, the Citroen C4 Cactus (shown), the Ford Mondeo, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Nissan Qashqai, the Renault Twingo and the Volkswagen Passat. Of those seven, only two are available in the US – those being the Mondeo (sold Stateside as the Fusion) and the C-Class. The Passat is an entirely different model in North America, the Qashqai isn't offered here, Citroen and Renault don't even participate in our market and the BMW 2 Series is represented here only by the completely different coupe and convertible. Expect the one and only recipient of the 2015 Car of the Year award to be announced at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, and while you're waiting, you can place your guesses for the eventual winner in Comments.
