7 SEATS OF FUN This people mover fun of
the 80's can be yours to enjoy. You will love all the room and comfort
inside. This Vanagon has been kept in great condition; it is an awesome car and is well equipped with 2WD, automatic transmission, water-cooled engine, four cylinders, AM/FM stereo radio, cassette player, spare wheel/tire. It is a non-smoker, accident free car. The exterior is in very good condition. There are no dings or dents and only minor imperfections only noticeable when close up. The only item to mention is that on the passenger side mirror, the glass is cracked. This car was very well taken care of and loved. My motto is "Close it, don't seal it" (Close the car door slowly), which also means please be careful and care for my car. The entire car has been recently repainted. The interior is in good condition with regular wear. The seats and other components are in excellent condition. There are no cracks on the dashboard or rips on seats. The interior ceiling has recently been reupholstered. The engine was rebuilt 2000 miles ago. The car drives
excellently without any known issues. The drive is smooth, comfortable
and very quiet with perfectly straight alignment. Visibility is
fantastic. It is a true pleasure to drive. Heat works and other options
work with the exception of the odometer; it has stopped in the last 1000 miles. There are no “check engine” or other warning lights. No visible oil
leaks or any other kind of leak. Oil/oil filter changes have been done
every 5, 000 miles since purchased. You can drive this car anywhere and
back, just add gas. You are more than welcome to take a test drive. Thank you for your interest in our Vanagon. |

VW makes $23K on every Porsche sold, more than Bentley or Lamborghini
Fri, 14 Mar 2014It's a good time to be in the luxury car business. In Volkswagen Group's financial report for the 2013 fiscal year, it is revealed that that Porsche enjoyed an operating margin of 18 percent. That means the Stuttgart brand made on average about $23,200 per car sold, according to BusinessWeek. Bentley wasn't far behind, and Audi (which was combined with Lamborghini) posted a 10.1 percent margin. This compares to only around 2.9 percent for the Volkswagen brand.
"Luxury brands are on fire," said Dave Sullivan, an industry analyst at AutoPacific. He said that the average profit margin is between six and eight percent. Brands like Porsche and Bentley have the benefit of competing in rarefied markets. Buyers looking at one their vehicles have fewer models to shop against and don't care as much about price. They can also charge more for options, which further boosts income, according to BusinessWeek.
In a way, we should be more impressed by the continued success from Audi. Its models generally have direct competitors in every segment from the other premium automakers. Plus, their buyers aren't the captains of industry who are shopping for a Bentley. Still, the Four Rings is leading rivals in sales so far this year.
UAW tactics called into question at VW's TN plant
Thu, 26 Sep 2013The United Auto Workers is in hot water with some of the very workers it is trying to unionize at Volkswagen's Chattanooga assembly plant. According to The Tennessean, eight Volkswagen factory workers have filed complaints against the UAW with the National Labor Relations Board, claiming the union "misled or coerced" them into formally asking for union representation.
The UAW has instituted a major push at the Chattanooga plant to represent the 2,500 hourly laborers that build the VW Passat by using what's called a card-check process. The tactic is opposed by the National Right to Work Legal Defense foundation, the group representing the workers. The card-check process demands that a company recognize a union that obtains the signatures of more than half its workforce, according to The Tennessean. This tactic is in contrast to the more traditional route, which sees employees vote on union representation.
The workers filing the complaint claim that the UAW told them the cards merely called for a secret ballot, rather than an outright demand for union representation. Workers also allege that the UAW has made it overly difficult to reclaim their signed cards, some of which were signed so long ago that they have been rendered invalid. Although the cards can force a company's hand, federal law still allows the company to ask for a secret ballot before yielding to unionized workers.
J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.
