Rockville, Maryland, United States
For Sale:
2008 MKV Volkswagen GTI I am the second owner of this GTI, looking to get into something bigger for a daily driver. I've owned the car since 20k miles and have performed every routine maintenance and oil change since purchase at a single VW dealership. This INCLUDES THE TIMING BELT AND WATER PUMP DONE AT 85K. Car has absolutely no mechanical/body issues. A few rock chips from all the highway miles, One taillight has been replaced with an OEM part, One of the mounts for the engine cover is loose and the airbag fault light is one due to some wiring issue that the 2008's had. There is no issue with the SRS or airbag systems, it's just a false code that I cannot reset myself and I'd rather not pay my dealer just to turn the light off. All recalls done - 115,xxx miles - Highway miles back and forth from college mostly - Bone stock motor - 6 speed Manual - Sunroof - Sat. Radio - Two sets of floors mats, cloth for summer and easy to clean rubber for winter included - Wheels wrapped in Goodyear Eagle GT's 245/45R17 at 60% life - Color matched factory painted rear bumper looks much better than stock textured finish - Car has never been detailed multiple times by a high-end professional detailer to like-new condition, and I will have it done again for the buyer - Windows Tinted - Car was never modified - Nada pricing listed at $11,900 for Clean Retail with my options and the above average milage. - Clean title in hand ready to go - Price is negotiable, but I believe it is fair - VIN available upon request - This is a perfect first car for any new driver looking for fun, safety, and reliability This car is a tank and extremely fun and incredibly safe and although I'm sad to see it go, it's time to move on to a larger daily driver for my family. I have a few other projects I'm working on as well, no need to keep this one. I hope someone else can get as much enjoyment out of it as I have. |

Volkswagen bringing new Touran minivan to Geneva
Wed, Feb 25 2015Volkswagen is bringing a wealth of new metal to the Geneva Motor Show this year. Unfortunately little if any of it is ever likely to reach American shores. There's the new Passat Alltrack, the Golf GTD Variant and a trifecta of new vans: the facelifted Caddy, the revised Sharan and this, the new Touran. Smaller than the Sharan, the Touran is Germany's top-selling minivan and boasts over 1.9 million units sold to date. It was introduced to the VW passenger van lineup in 2003 and was replaced in 2010 with an all-new model. What you're looking at here is the third-generation Touran, based on VW's ubiquitous new MQB architecture. Most obvious is the new sheet metal that makes it look sharper and more in step with the rest of the German automaker's lineup compared to the model it replaces. But there's more to the new Touran than its skin. It's also nearly five inches longer, with most of that length added in the wheelbase to give it a more commodious cabin that's also been updated with the latest equipment and offers room for up to seven passengers. Despite the larger size, it's a good 136 pounds lighter than the outgoing model, so it promises better performance in both its driving dynamics and its environmental credentials. Prospective customers (in markets where the Touran is sold) will be able to choose from a range of three gasoline and three diesel engines ranging from 108 horsepower up to 187, burning as much as 19 percent less fuel than the outgoing model's lineup thanks to features like stop/start engine management and brake force regeneration. There's even a sporty R Line package to give it a little visual aggression. For better or worse, though, the US market will almost certainly be left out: reached for comment, our source at VW USA pointed out that the Touran and Sharan aren't big enough to fill the shoes left by the Routan - but that the upcoming three-row crossover will. Volkswagen presents the new Touran - Germany's best-selling MPV completely redeveloped - More room; smart new design - New engines up to 19 per cent more economical Volkswagen presents the new Touran. The completely redesigned MPV was showcased before an audience of international media representatives at the Autostadt in Wolfsburg, not far from the production site where the popular family car is made. The interior of the new model has undergone a significant increase in size and is highly configurable.
Feds allege widespread Volkswagen cheating on clean-air rules
Fri, Sep 18 2015Volkswagen intentionally installed software in nearly a half-million diesel vehicles that helped the cars evade substandard results on emissions tests, the federal government charged Friday. The Environmental Protection Agency issued a notice of violation to the German automaker, saying the company's software broke the law by violating two provisions in the Clean Air Act. Circumventing the standards meant affected cars emitted as much as 40 times the allowable level of certain pollutants. Both the EPA and California Air Resources Board have launched investigations. In its notice of violations, the EPA said Volkswagen officials admitted to installing and concealing what they call a "defeat device," which was designed to detect when the cars were undergoing official emissions tests – and only turn on emissions controls during that time. "Our goal now is to ensure that the affected cars are brought into compliance, to dig more deeply into the extent and implications of Volkswagen's efforts to cheat on clean air rules, and to take appropriate further action," said Richard Corey, executive officer of CARB. The allegations cover approximately 482,000 vehicles sold in the United States over the past seven years. Cars involved include diesel versions of the Jetta, Beetle, Audi A3 and Golf manufactured between the 2009 and 2015 model years. Passats manufactured for the 2014 and 2015 model years are also included. Federal officials note there is no safety danger to motorists, but the cars will be recalled for repairs. If true, Volkswagen faces a fine that could run in the hundreds of millions of dollars -- likely higher than the $300 million charge the EPA levied last November at Hyundai and Kia for exaggerating the fuel-economy in several models. The charges also put a tremendous dent into the company's plans to increase sales of its "Clean Diesel" vehicles in North America. In a written statement, Volkswagen Group of America acknowledged it had received the notices from the EPA and CARB. "VW is cooperating with the investigation; we are unable to comment further at this time," it said. Federal officials said the defeat-device software was uncovered during an independent analysis by researchers at West Virginia University, who in working with the International Council on Clean Transportation, a non-governmental organization, raised questions about emissions levels.
