Just email me at: kalynkhhurrington@ukbig.com . This is an excellent condition early 1969 VW Karmann Ghia convertible with the rare Automatic Stickshift
transmission. The Ghia drives and shifts flawlessly. This is a solid body car and is originally from southern
California where it spent the majority of its life except for the last few years which were in S. Carolina. I
purchased the car in 2014 and I had the car totally gone over mechanically including new brake shoes in the rear,
new brake master cylinder, new tires, rebuilt engine with new seals including the automatic transmission, replaced
all 4 CV joints, got speedometer and odometer working, new Stayfast canvas convertible top w /headliner and boot,
along with some additional maintenance and repairs. It is not the original engine. The horn does not work and the
interior dash lights do not work. All exterior lights work correctly - brakes, brights, hazard, parking, license
plate, turn signals, back-up, etc. The interior was re-done by a previous owner and it has nice light blue piping.
The interior is in excellent condition. The body has been repainted once, as far as we know, and it is in excellent
condition. The car is clean and only has a few dings or scrapes. One dent is on the front bumper. These are shown
in the photos. The automatic stickshift transmission works fine. It has reverse, low, first and second. There is no
clutch. To switch from first to second you just lift off of the gas pedal, shift, then push the gas pedal. When we
received the car the speedometer and odometer were not working. They are both working now but the odometer reading
is not correct and we have no way of knowing the correct mileage. When we purchased the car the odometer read
47,019 and the previous owner thought she had not put 10,000 miles on it and we probably haven't put 500 miles on
it. The clock is working but not keeping perfect time. The vintage Blaupunkt radio is still there, but not working.
There is an under dash Blaupunkt radio with a cassette player in the vehicle but the radio stations often don't
come in well. It has a new speaker for when the radio stations do come in well or if you are using a cassette. I
just got the car the way I wanted it when I found a car that I wanted more! Non-smoking home. Feel free to ask
questions before you buy! You will be responsible for pick up of the vehicle or arranging for transport.

CEO says Volkswagen's buying spree is over

Mon, 03 Sep 2012

After adding Italian motorcycle icon Ducati to its stable and spending $5.6 billion on the rest of Porsche, Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn says he's done shopping for a while.
"We have enough to do at the moment in taking our twelve brands to where we want to be," Winterkorn tells German newspaper Handelsblatt.

Volkswagen Passat gets Wolfsburg Edition, priced from $23,495*

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

Volkswagen has just announced a new Passat Wolfsburg Edition, which slots between the base S and mid-grade SE trims in terms of content and price. The automaker has not released any official photos of the car as of this writing (aside from the badge shot you see here, of course), but the Wolfsburg Passat will be visually set apart from the rest by a unique set of 16-inch alloy wheels.
The big host of upgrades for the Wolfsburg Edition are found inside, where buyers will enjoy standard amenities like leatherette seats (with bun-warmers on the front chairs), a power driver's seat, satellite radio and a media interface with iPod connectivity. Of course, this comes on top of the already standard Passat features like Bluetooth and auto on/off headlamps. The Wolfsburg Passat will only be available with the 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission.
Look for the 2013 Wolfsburg Edition Passat to hit dealerships in the very near future, priced from $23,495, *not including $795 for destination. Have a look below for Volkswagen's official press blast.

VW Up Buggy may be headed to showrooms

Tue, 02 Jul 2013

Volkswagen showed six conceptual takes on its Up at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show, one of those being the Up Buggy. Although few will probably remember it, VW has not forgotten it, applying for a patent for the Meyers Manx revival roadster way back in March 2012 and being approved in June of this year, according to a report in Autocar. That will give the automaker a 14-year lock on the design while it decides whether to move forward with a reboot of its past.
A patent doesn't mean the Up Buggy will ever move beyond the sheet-of-paper stage, but Autocar says VW is studying the market to see if a production version is feasible. We can't see North America ever getting it, but even so, we wouldn't complain if they made it - especially if they put an exposed engine in back that was set off by 18-inch-long twin tailpipes jutting straight up into the air. However, for a company that aims to be the world's number-one automaker by 2018, a niche vehicle for its mass-market brand would be a surprising use of resources.
