1998 Gls - Very Clean, Rust Free Florida Car - One Elderly Owner Since 2001 on 2040-cars
Melrose, Florida, United States
|
This car has has been owned and driven by an ELDERLY NON-SMOKING LADY since 2001. It has factory sport wheels (one center cap is missing), factory
alarm, and very good leather interior with minimal wear on the
front seats. The factory paint is in good condition having a few normal
scratches for the age (see pictures). The car has always been well maintained including getting new front brakes, new belts, (including the
timing belt) within the last year, and a new convertible top, new front tires,
and paint on the hood and trunk within the past two years. It is a Florida car
and has no known rust anywhere and no accidents ever. Mechanically it runs and
drives excellent, shifts good and no noises in the engine or driveline at all. There are a
couple of things that could use attention. 1). The roof has to be put up and
down manually as it has a power top, but the power does not work. 2). The
speedometer works sporadically, and sometimes not at all. We were told by our
mechanic that the speedometer needs a VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor) and that the
top was probably a motor. We have recently purchased a new vehicle and have
decided not to repair these items and to sell it as is. There is no warranty
with the vehicle, it is being sold as is. Buyer is responsible for vehicle pick-up $200 Deposit within 48 hours of Auction close Pay by Bank Check, Money Order, Cashiers Check, or Cash in Person Full payment is due within 5 days of Auction close |

Next Volkswagen Golf R to get 286 horsepower?
Tue, 12 Feb 2013The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't launched in the United States just yet, but we're already setting our sights on the range-topping R model. According to Autocar, the next Golf R will be more powerful than the current version, producing 268 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, making it the most powerful production Golf ever.
Powering the new Golf R will be a further evolution of Volkswagen's well-liked 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four, and when mated to a six-speed dual-clutch transmission, the hotter hatch will reportedly be able to sprint to 62 miles per hour in five seconds flat. That's over half a second quicker than the current US-spec model.
Other updates for the new Golf R include the addition of VW's Haldex 5 all-wheel-drive system found in the latest iteration of 4Motion. Furthermore, thanks to the use of lightweight materials, the new R is expected to weigh in around 2,650 pounds - that's a massive 675 pounds less than the current US-spec car. The exhaust has reportedly been reworked to provide more aural delight, as well.
Volkswagen hatches hotter GTI in Geneva
Tue, 05 Mar 2013The all-new seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't even launched here in the United States, but over in Geneva, we're already getting our first glimpse at the hotter GTI hatchback. The fancy new Mk VII Golf is already off to a healthy start with positive reviews in Europe, and we have no doubt that this next GTI will work hard to regain its title as king of the hot hatches.
The big news for this generation of GTI is that for the first time ever, Volkswagen is actually offering two different power grades for the model, both relying on the 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four. Standard cars pack 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, but an optional performance pack ups the horsepower number to 230. Hitting 60 miles per hour takes 6.5 seconds (6.4 with the performance pack) and top speed is quoted at 153 mph (or 155 with the performance kit). Volkswagen will continue to offer the GTI with both six-speed manual and dual-clutch transmissions.
On the visual front, the sub-3,000-pound GTI adds the usual bit of hot hatch aggression over the standard Golf, and those changes carry over to the interior with a flat-bottomed wheel and, of course, plaid seats. She's certainly a looker, and while some of us do find the new Golf's design to be a bit staid and evolutionary, the enhancements for the GTI indeed tug on our enthusiast heart strings.
