1983 VW rabbit (gas) which is in fair condition, 79,983 miles on her. 4 door. Hatchback. Silver.

This car will eventually need a new fuel injection system. I have a used fuel injector which is in very good shape and which I will include in the price of the car, but it may come down to her needing a brand new one. I have done a lot of repairs on her already and have gotten her into pretty good shape, however it is simply more than I can handle to maintain an antique car like this.

A little slow to start, but once started, engine has power and can go quite fast. Brand new battery, new fuel filter, new cold-start line. Just had the engine re-aligned. Brakes work fine but could be tighter.

I purchased this car about 6 months ago in Metairie, LA. I believe it was originally purchased in Las Vegas back in 1983. According to the school sticker on the back window, it also spent some time in Indiana before moving to Louisiana. I LOVE this car, and has always dreamed of having a VW Rabbit, but unfortunately I am not up to the job of fully restoring her. The previous owner tried to hook up a "cool" sound system and failed, so there is some weird wiring inside, which is surely fixable. Just two days ago I woke up to find a dent on the left-hand front body, near the hood. It's not in a terrible spot and is definitely fixable. Some of the doors are a bit sticky.

 This car would be a great project for a rabbit enthusiast, or for someone who wants to build a race-car engine inside the attractive frame.

Local pick-up only.

Volkswagen bringing driver assistance systems to its 2016 lineup

Sat, Aug 1 2015

Chevrolet isn't the only manufacturer rolling out luxury safety technologies on a 2016 mass-market lineup. Volkswagen has just announced that next year it will begin adding driver assistance systems to its lineup here in the States – stuff that was previously only available on Audi and Porsche models here, or Volkswagens in Europe. Adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, and autonomous braking will be standard on the CC V6 4Motion, optional on certain trims of the Golf and Jetta. Blind spot monitoring will be standard on the Beetle, and top CC and Jetta trims, but optional on the Golf and lower Jetta variants. Automated parking will be available on Golf models, including the e-Golf. Blind spot assistance with rear traffic alert, lane departure warning, park distance control, and an automatic post-collision braking system also come in the technology kitty, all of which will be packaged at prices between $695 and $1,495. Infotainment options take a bit step up, too, with every VW model but the Touareg being fitted with touchscreens. The new MIB II head unit comes in four sizes, the Beetle, Jetta, and Tiguan getting the smallest, five-inch screen as standard but upgradeable to a 6.5-inch screen. Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and MirrorLink are integrated into that larger screen. The interface is improved by a faster processor, higher resolution, and better graphics, and some will come with swiping and pinch-to-zoom functionality. The two press releases below lay it all out in detail. VOLKSWAGEN DEMOCRATIZES HIGH-END DRIVER ASSISTANCE FEATURES FOR THE 2016 MODEL YEAR Many models in the 2016 Volkswagen lineup offer new driver assistance systems that used to be the sole preserve of premium and luxury vehicles Herndon, VA Jul 29, 2015 — For the 2016 model year, Volkswagen is offering a host of driver assistance features that were only previously available on the premium Touareg SUV—and adding some new ones that truly democratize driver assistance for the compact sedan and compact hatchback classes. These available features include: Forward Collision Warning and Autonomous Emergency Braking (Front Assist); Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC); the Parking Steering Assistant (Park Assist); and an active Lane Departure Warning (Lane Assist) system. The Beetle, CC, e-Golf, Golf, Golf GTI, Golf R, Golf SportWagen, and Jetta offer these available features, depending on model and trim line.
