this is a 1979 vw rabbit, it is a good car i have been driving it 2 years. i would drive 400 miles a week and all was good. since it has no heater or ac it would be parked in the winter and even though the windows have to be rolled down with pliers they still work well.It is hard to start the longer it sets, it gets air in the fuel line and i am not sure if the glow plugs even work but even when its cold it still starts but you may have to start it 3 or 4 times before it will stay running. runs and drives good a little noisey from the exhaust pipe and road noise.the dash is cracked all up from the sun. the widshield has some chips and it leaks a little bit when it rains. the tires are not to bad but they could use a rotation the one on the back have more tread than the ons on the front. it probaly could use some brake pads i have drove it about 50000 miles and havent done anything with them. it smokes on start up but stops quickly also smokes if you floor it at high rpm (all black smoke).its got rust under the back and inside the trunk i tried to seal it with rubber coating but i can still see some coming through.it has a dent in the back passenger side and several dings in other places. it has a primer spot on the hood the guy i bought it off of said the battery shorted out and caught the insulation on fire so some of the stuff under the hood got melted, but it has not seemed to effect the way it performes. i put a lower cost cold air intake on in and it seem to have helped the mpg, i have been getting 40-50 it just depends on hard the wind is blowing. the fan is set up on a switch in the dash it will stay cool with no fan most the time but at temps in the summer i just leave it on all the time never had any temp trouble out of it.i have changed the oil every 5000 miles and used lucus each time.the odometer works when it wants to, so, scents i knew how far it was to school thats what i used for mileage.the hatchback window don't stay up on its own so the lucky winner gets the board that i been using at no extra cost. there is a spare tire but there is no rim inside that tire(glad i never had a flat). the window tint maybe illegal where you live it's dark and mirrored and old, or custom depending on how you look at it.the paint is is faded. the back window heater don't work.the radio and CB work and all the guages and clock. the seats are in good shape.this car is old and i am not a mechanic (especally diesel mech.) i have rigged stuff to work and put up with other stuff i could'nt rig. the car would probbly make a cross county trip but i sure don't know if i could handle driving it cross the country. this is an as is car. would be a good wvo car if somone wanted to try it.if you have any questions just ask and i will get with you as soon as i can.

Volkswagen Golf Wagon caught completely uncovered

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

Without a lot of information to go with them, our camera-toting spies have captured some new images of a Volkswagen Golf wagon variant that is almost completely undisguised. In fact, the one piece of camouflage on the tidy wagon would probably have gone unnoticed to most casual viewers. Look closely at the rear three-quarter view of the car and you'll notice that the apparent taillight clusters are actually fakes - the outline of the real units is faintly visible behind the blue bodywork and the sticker-like fake taillights.
It's a good guess then, that this Golf wagon (called a Golf Kombi by our spy photographer) is a prototype that's pretty far along in the development cycle for Volkswagen. We can't be sure what impact this will have on the company's small wagon offering here in the US, but we'd be pretty surprised if something very like this didn't end up as the next Jetta SportWagen. We might well have more information on that front, after we visit Geneva next week.

Volkswagen reveals Beetle GSR, R-Line convertible and two special GTIs

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Volkswagen has chosen to really expand its performance-tuned portfolio at this year's Chicago Auto Show, bringing along a couple of new Beetles destined for model year 2014, as well as a pair of freshened GTI packages that you'll be able to buy almost right away.
The first, and splashiest of the Chicago goodies on the VW stand has got to be the 2014 Volkswagen Beetle GSR. Don't lose your temper, Acura Integra geeks; in this case, GSR stands for "Gelb Schwarzer Renner" or "Yellow Black Racer," and harkens back to a sport-tuned classic Beetle from the 1970s. For the 2014 iteration, the GSR gets a 210-horsepower version of VW's 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder. That engine is enough to push the Beetle to 60 miles per hour in 6.6 seconds, and up to a top speed of 130 mph.
Of course, you'll have long-since noticed the shockingly yellow-and-black livery before you stumble across the Turbo badge on the rear deck. The GSR gets 19-inch alloy wheels, 235-section tires and a tea-tray rear spoiler, but it's the paint and graphics package that will decide if this is your (lemony) cup of tea. Things don't get any subtler inside the car, either, as VW has carried the colorway through to the interior, as well. Only 3,500 Beetle GSRs will be produced, with just more than half of those going to the US - call your dealer today, Wiz Khalifa.

European jury picks finalists for 2015 Car of the Year

Tue, Dec 16 2014

There 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.
