Selling my wife's car.  Super nice 2001 VW Turbo Diesel Beetle.  This has been her daily commuting car, but with our second child born, it has become impractical to use with two car seats.  Wanting to upgrade to more family geared car... So here's your opportunity to own a highly sought after car!!  

This Beetle runs awesome, you probably won't find a better one any time soon!  Super running diesel Bug.  Very reliable.  Clean, no smells, super solid, ready to go!  Averages 45+ MPG!!  No shimmys, rattles, or weird noises.  Tracks straight and rolls smooth.  Starts smooth and automatic transmission works as should.   All lights, horn, accessories work as should. Added a panzer plate from diesel geek dot com, it's a super heavy duty aluminum skid plate to protect engine and transmission. Paid $300. 
The beetle looks pretty good for being a 2001, although, I'm not going to lie, it is a 2001 and has it's fair share of scratches, dings, and patchy clear coat flake.  The hood and top have the most clear coat fade.  Please see pictures.  All in all, it's in ok shape.  Front lower valance is missing, missed a turn this pass winter, hit a ditch and messed it up.  Can be found here on Ebay for $200. Front left hand corner of bumper got cracked and flaked some paint off.  See pic. 
Mechanically, car is in great shape and would drive anywhere.  No oil leaks anywhere!  All maintenance is up to date.  All records availible with car.  Recent maintenance includes new injector pump, fuel filter, and new timing belt.  Tires are in newer Goodyear TripleTread tires in excellent shape and all match.  An extra set of snow tires will be include in sale of beetle.  Newer front and rear brakes, new front rotors, new serpentine belt, new air filter, and mass flow sensor, two brand new OEM headlights!  Old headlights were faded and dim.  Hot heater, ice cold A/C, Radio is an Sony cd with aux input.  Wife wanted to listen to her tunes!  Stock VW radio will be included in sale.  I have 3 keys for this car.  1 collapsible, with alarm button, and trunk pop, and the other 2 are valet keys.
Since we have owned the car, the airbag light has been on.  VW mechanic told us it was the passenger seat belt latch switch bad, but explained it would not affect operation of air bags.  We just never got it fixed.  This past spring the check engine light has come on and the VW mechanic explained that the glow plug wiring bridge needs replaced to correct fault.  Have receipt with estimate.  Figured I'd do it myself this summer, but have not gotten to it.  The part sells on Ebay for $60.  Glow plugs are only needed when it gets cold, so daily summer driving has been no problem.  Headliner has slight sag, and drivers seat has minor rip, see pic.
I live minutes from Columbus Ohio.  If high bidder lives out of state would like to fly in to Port Columbus, would be willing to meet at airport.  Please email me if you believe this would be an option for you.  My reserve is slightly below my Buy it Now price.  I purchased this Beetle off Ebay almost two years ago, and have sold several other of my vehicles here on Ebay.  Title is clear and have in hand.  If you live in the area and want to take for a test drive, please message me.
I have been truthful about any and all issues.  Bid with confidence!  My wife and I have been buying and selling on Ebay since '95 with Excellent feedback.  If you have any questions or if I have left something out, please email me and will respond an quick as possible.

Production Volkswagen Taigun crossover caught in patent filing?

Wed, 01 May 2013

Volkswagen brought an angular, bulldog-like small crossover concept called Taigun to the São Paulo motor show last year, claiming that it wanted to gauge interest in the design before making a decision about production. If a new report with alleged leaked patent images is to be believed, then, interest must have been pretty high.
China's Auto.Sohu.com has published this group of Taigun images, claiming that they have been sourced from the Chinese patent office and that the subcompact VW utility based on the Up! has been cleared for production.
If all of that is true, and if these images are representative of the final product, you'll see that designers haven't done much to alter the concept car's appearance. Comparing, shot for shot, with the images we have from Brazil, we see that even small details like roof rack-mounted lights and exhaust tips integrated in the rear fascia have been carried over. Take a closer look for yourself in the attached galleries.

VW previews retouched 2014 Touareg for Beijing

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

Volkswagen is in New York this week showing off its new Jetta and Golf TDI SportWagen concept. But in less than a week, the German automaker will be off to China for the Beijing Motor Show, where it will showcase the revised Touareg you see here.
A subtle update on the Touareg that's been on the market in its current form for four years now, the facelifted model features reworked styling front and rear, an updated interior and a host of new technologies to keep it current in the highly competitive SUV market. Among those new features are larger bi-xenon headlights, coasting function, Google Maps integration and a post-collision braking system designed to prevent a second crash.
VW will offer the new Touareg with a variety of engines around the world, but in North America it'll carry over the same six-cylinder powertrain options as the outgoing model: a 3.6-liter V6 with 280 horsepower, a 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 with 240 hp (though torque isn't listed, we'd expect around 406 pound-feet, same as last year) and a hybrid that marries a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 to an electric motor that combine to deliver 380 hp.
