Hello and thank you for looking at my auction.

Up for sale today is a very clean 2000 VW Jetta GLS Sedan. This Jetta is in great condition and has just PASSED MARYLAND INSPECTION. As you can see, this is a nice vehicle. It is finished in Dark Blue and the paint on this Jetta looks good. Of course being a 13 year old vehicle there are blemishes and small dings. Also the paint has faded some on the rear bumper but the car looks great overall. All of the body lines are smooth and even. All of the glass and lenses are intact. The wheels show very well and are wrapped in a set of tires with well over 75% tread remaining. Please take your time and review each of the photos carefully.

The interior of this Jetta is in very good condition. The Tan interior compliments well with the Dark Blue exterior and shows well. The dash is clean and has no faded spots or excessive wear. The carpets show well throughout the interior. The door panels are clean and intact. The power windows, locks and mirrors all work properly. The air condition was just serviced and works well and the radio and speakers also work well. The seats are clean and comfortable and the trunk is also clean and well kept.

Mechanically this Jetta is in great running and driving condition. The engine starts easy and runs smooth. There are no leaks and the engine does not smoke. The suspension is nice and tight as it should be. The steering feels neutral and responsive. The brakes are strong and stop this Jetta with no problems. The Brake pad warning light is lit on the dash but my mechanic says it has over 1/3 pad left (sometimes the sensor gets bent a little and causes the light to come on way before the brakes need to be changed). The engine keeps proper temperature and oil pressure at all times. There is a airbag warning light on which is common on VW's due to their complex airbag system setting it off even when seats are adjusted sometimes, but this does not affect drivability and the car passed MD inspection with it on. This Jetta drives down the road confidently and feels solid. The engine makes good power. The automatic transmission engages smoothly and shifts as it should. Out on the highway this Jetta cruises effortlessly. She goes straight down the road with no complaints and can be driven with ease. Pride in ownership shows throughout this vehicle. Please take the time to read this entire description. This vehicle is represented accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and ability. Car can be viewed anytime, just send me a message to set up appointment.

This vehicle had a new battery and a few lights changed to pass inspection and also had A/C serviced.

Buying a vehicle over the internet can be scary so I take many actions to make you feel secure with your purchase:

1. I take the time/effort and spend the money to get my vehicles through Maryland safety inspection. Maryland has one of the toughest safety inspections in the country so if a vehicle passes Maryland safety inspection "I believe" it will pass any states safety inspection.

2. I give a very detailed report of the vehicle Interior / Exterior / Mechanical condition. I have a mechanical background, "but I am not a car mechanic". I have been buying and selling cars for over 25 years so I know a lot about cars. I am as honest and accurate as possible about vehicles that I sell. You can always ask me questions about vehicles that I am selling or arrange to come see the vehicle before bidding.

3. I upload over 20 pictures of every vehicle and will try my best to send you any specific pictures that you ask for.

BEWARE OF VEHICLES THAT ARE NOT INSPECTED!!! Many people think they are getting a great deal on vehicles they buy on EBay for inexpensive prices only to find out when they take it through inspection that it needs thousands of dollars worth of work. I usually spend over a thousand dollars and put in hours of work on each vehicle to get it ready to pass Maryland inspection.

My vehicles are also for sale locally and auction may be ended early in accordance with Ebay policies.

A $149 DEALER DOCUMENT FEE WILL BE CHARGED ON ALL SALES (INCLUDING BEST OFFERS) AND INCLUDES A TEMPORARY TAG IF NEEDED (proof of insurance and all information for title/registration is needed 24 hours before temporary tag can be issued).

A non-refundable deposit of $250 is required within 24 hours of auction close. Remaining balance is required within 7 days of auction close by Cash in Person or Certified Bank Funds (PayPal will not be accepted for balance). Title and vehicle will not be released until ALL funds have cleared. Buyer must contact seller to make arrangements for vehicle pick-up within 48 hours of auction close and pick-up vehicle within 7 days. Vehicles not picked up within 7 days will be charged a $10/day storage charge unless prior arrangements have been made.

Thanks for looking and good luck biding.

Horn, Hackenburg, Hatz to be fired as VW diesel scandal deepens

Thu, Sep 24 2015

Volkswagen will sack three more high ranking executives, including the head of its US division, as the company's diesel scandal deepens. Reuters reported Thursday morning that the executives are: Michael Horn, who has led VW's US operations since January 1, 2014; Ulrich Hackenberg, who oversaw Audi's research and development; and Wolfgang Hatz, who was in charge of R&D for Porsche. A VW spokesman wouldn't comment in response to an Autoblog email. The moves come in the wake of longtime VW chief executive Martin Winterkorn stepping down on Wednesday. Volkswagen's board said at the time that it expected more personnel changes to follow. Volkswagen's board is scheduled to meet Friday, and Porsche CEO Matthias Muller has reportedly been named as Winterkorn's successor. The German auto giant was plunged into crisis last Friday when the EPA charged that the company manipulated software in its diesel-powered cars to pass US emissions tests. About 482,000 vehicles in the US are affected, and VW estimates 11 million around the world could have the rigged software. The revelations have prompted outcry from governments and regulatory agencies, and in the US, Volkswagen could face a fine of up to $18 billion. The departure of Horn, Hackenberg, and Hatz is a stunning downfall for three of the company's top and most visible executives. Horn had led US operations for less than two years, taking over from Jonathan Browning, who was well-respected but failed to reach VW's ambitious sales targets. Before overseeing Audi R&D, Hackenberg was hailed as a visionary for work in developing VW's modular architectures, which allow the company to save time and money by building many vehicles off the same chassis. Hatz had led Porsche R&D since 2011 and also was in charge of engines and transmission development for all of Volkswagen.

Porsche board members facing another ˆ1.8B lawsuit over VW takeover bid

Mon, 03 Feb 2014

Back in 2008, Porsche got the bright idea that it could take over Volkswagen in the midst of the worst economic slump since the Great Depression. Ignoring that this was a catastrophic move for the Stuttgart sports car manufacturer that that eventually resulted in it nearly going bankrupt and eventually being taken over by the same company it sought to control, the aftermath has left Porsche Chairman Wolfgang Porsche and board member Ferdinand Piëch in the crosshairs of seven hedge funds that lost out during the takeover and are now seeking €1.8 billion - $2.43 billion US - in damages from the two execs, according to the BBC.
See, investors bet on Volkswagen's share price going down, partially because Porsche said it wasn't going to attempt a takeover. But Porsche was attempting to take over VW, having bought up nearly 75-percent of VW's publicly traded shares. When word broke that Porsche owned nearly three-quarters of VW (which indicated an imminent takeover attempt), rather than go down like the hedge funds bet it would, VW's share price skyrocketed to over 1,000 euros per share, according to Reuters.
Naturally, when you bet that a company's share price is going to drop and it in turn (temporarily) becomes the world's most valuable company, you lose a lot of money, unless you're able to buy up shares before prices jump too much. This led to a squeeze on the stock, which the hedge funds accuse Porsche and Piëch (who are both members of the Porsche family and supervisory board) of organizing.
