Hi, this great bug came from a 93 yr old man in Carmel California back in 2010. He was obsessive about taking it to the same guy for upkeep and service for over 40 years. He garaged it for all that time. It's mechanically about a 9 out of 10. It's cosmetically on the outside about an 8 conservatively and all original . There is no other rust/rot on this car anywhere other than the spot on the engine lid shown in pic, this car is SOLID !! The inside is about a 9 and is about 90 % original? The two front seats have some tears on them so I just ordered nice quality ,factory style covers from TMI Interiors, They will go with the car. I will put them on before the car goes if I have them by then. The back seats are like new and all original. It has a super Statomat radio and a Bambus German parcel shelf.. The heat works excellent in this car. The rear engine Lid at the bottom has some rust spots from the lid drain being clogged. Other than that , there are only a few other minor blemishes in the cars finish. The car looks amazing, you would have to be looking for the imperfections . This car has only been driven roughly 3000 miles since being transported here to new England 4 years ago. Very limited use. This is not a Mint show car , but visually is a very nice looking original car That is a super tight driver. The underneath is perfect. Car drives like it has 66k on it. All service records complete back to the mid 80s and I have the original Blue plates from Cali. Compression is 125 in all 4 cylinders . It's a 1500 engine with 24,000 well serviced miles .The motor was replaced 24k miles ago when the car had 40k. It was a GEX Rebuilt motor, I have receipts detailing this. This car doesn't need a thing ! It is ready to be driven & enjoyed now.. I live a few miles off I95 near the MA/NH Line. You are more than welcome to come view the car anytime. Just drop an email. Also , very easy for a transporter to pick up the car. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding !!! THIS IS A NO- RESERVE AUCTION. SO, BID TO WIN ! THE CAR IS ALSO FOR SALE LOCALLY AND I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION EARLY IF THE CAR SELLS BEFORE THE AUCTION ENDS......WITH BUY IT NOW , I WILL HAVE IT DELIVERED FOR FREE UP TO 200 MILES..

Skoda unveils Volkswagen Up!-based Citigo

Tue, 27 Sep 2011

This is the all-new Skoda Citigo, and if you're thinking that it looks rather familiar, that's because its Volkswagen-badged kin recently debuted at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. That's right, the long-rumored Skoda version of Volkswagen's new Up! city car has finally arrived.
Buyers will have a choice of two 1.0-liter three-cylinder engines - one with 59 horsepower, the other with a 74 hp and a blistering 106 mph top speed - both mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Powerful they are not, but these three-bangers should prove to be extremely efficient, with Skoda quoting fuel economy numbers of 62.8 and 60.1 miles per gallon, respectively (on the European cycle).
Being a Skoda, the Citigo will go on sale in its home market of the Czech Republic this fall, with the rest of Europe getting the car next summer. Follow the jump for Skoda's official release.

VW's Winterkorn tells 20,000 staffers of big cost-cutting plans

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

During a gathering of 20,000 Volkswagen Group employees at company headquarters in Wolfsburg, Germany on Wednesday, CEO Martin Winterkorn dropped a bombshell. The boss stated that the automaker isn't operating efficiently enough and admitted the company needs to radically start cutting back to raise its profit margins. To right the ship, Winterkorn has proposed killing off less profitable models and spending less on research and development.
According to Reuters, Winterkorn wants to raise the VW brand's profit margin from about 2.9 percent in 2013 to a target of 6 percent. To make that possible, his plan amounts to increasing cost cutting until Volkswagen reaches about 5 billion euros ($6.7 billion) per year to get things back in order. "Over the short-term, we urgently need more efficiency and higher profit," the CEO said during his speech, according to Reuters.
However, Winterkorn can't make these decisions unilaterally. Volkswagen's works council also has a seat on the supervisory board to represent laborers, and it isn't likely to take the proposed cuts sitting down.

Volkswagen Passat gets Wolfsburg Edition, priced from $23,495*

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

Volkswagen has just announced a new Passat Wolfsburg Edition, which slots between the base S and mid-grade SE trims in terms of content and price. The automaker has not released any official photos of the car as of this writing (aside from the badge shot you see here, of course), but the Wolfsburg Passat will be visually set apart from the rest by a unique set of 16-inch alloy wheels.
The big host of upgrades for the Wolfsburg Edition are found inside, where buyers will enjoy standard amenities like leatherette seats (with bun-warmers on the front chairs), a power driver's seat, satellite radio and a media interface with iPod connectivity. Of course, this comes on top of the already standard Passat features like Bluetooth and auto on/off headlamps. The Wolfsburg Passat will only be available with the 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission.
Look for the 2013 Wolfsburg Edition Passat to hit dealerships in the very near future, priced from $23,495, *not including $795 for destination. Have a look below for Volkswagen's official press blast.
