1970 Volkswagen Super Beetle Convertible. 80% restored, runs well, good compression in engine, maintained professionally, Some rust in bumpers, along edges of hood and engine doors. Floorboards were replaced during previous restorations but it currently has one small hole under the battery on the passenger side rear floorboard. Heat channels are in excellent shape. Main body structure is intact and in excellent shape. Seats have been changed out to Procar Scat seats with newer seat covers over the back passenger seat cushions. Carpeting was replaced in almost all the interior and the trunk. Steering wheel is a Volkswagen steering wheel from a Rabbit or Cabriolet from around the same timeperiod and was leather wrapped. Radio is a replacement from the early 90's along with new Pioneer speakers in the door. Back passenger seat back works will with it's release and without the back seat cushion, it folds flat for more cargo space, and small 4 legged companions. Speedometer cluster was replaced during the earlier restorations and I will put with the sale all parts that I have that came off the car. The original speedo cluster has the mileage that was original to the car before it had to be removed due to damaged nylon gearing in the casing. It had less than 90K on it, I believe. The original seats were broken when the car was purchased and are not available. Neither is the original steering wheel. The side passenger mirror is loose in the frame and spins, causing some slight paint damage. We can't figure out how to fix this issue. Recent oil change, replaced rear brakes, bled the brake lines, rotated tires. Everything checked out on the car, which was serviced less than a month ago.
Car is sold as is, where is. No warranties or guarantees expressed or implied. No shipping or delivery available. Pickup only.

VW to unveil diesel-electric Twin-Up! in Tokyo
Fri, 08 Nov 2013We've received multiple reports that Volkswagen will be bringing a diesel-electric concept to the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show, set to take place later this month. The car, called the Twin-Up!, is based on the Up! city car, with some sources claiming this is a thinly veiled concept that will eventually enter production.
According to Automotive News Europe, the Twin-Up! will reportedly return 214 miles per gallon on the US cycle by combining an 800-cc, two-cylinder diesel and an electric motor. It will also boast plug-in capabilities, and will be able to cover 30 miles on electric power alone.
Autocar has a more complete picture of the Twin-Up!'s powertrain, though, claiming it's a modified version of the hybrid system found in the Volkswagen XL1. The Twin-Up! will get a more potent, 47-horsepower electric motor to the XL1's 27-hp unit, but will retain that car's 47-hp turbodiesel. The battery pack will also grow, from 5.5 kilowatt hours to 8.6 kWh. Both of these increases are necessary due to the increased weight of the Twin-Up! - it's some 900 pounds heavier than an XL1.
2015 Volkswagen GTI [w/video]
Fri, 26 Apr 2013The 911 Of Hot Hatches Takes The Compact Game To New Levels
North American car buyers get a bit of a slap in the face when it comes to delivery schedules for new the Volkswagen Golf and pumped-up GTI models. We'll just repeat the old chestnut: It's worth the wait... even though it still stinks. This time around, Western Europe is taking deliveries of the new Golf as we speak, and GTI deliveries start between May and July. North America doesn't get the Mk7 Golf or GTI until about July of 2014.
So we approached our first drive of the new GTI with this chip on our shoulder: "You're making us wait? Well, then at least give us the exact car we'll be able to buy. No compromises, mein freund." And so it was that we extracted nearly all of our drive impressions from behind the wheel of what, for the United States, will technically be a model year 2015 two-door Volkswagen Golf GTI Performance with the standard six-speed manual.
Volkswagen NMC production guise caught in China
Tue, 29 Apr 2014Chinese car site Autohome has what are said to be the first pictures of the Volkswagen New Midsize Coupe concept in production form. VW's NMC was just introduced at the Beijing Motor Show, while background chatter indicated it would go on sale in China, Autohome says that production version will be built at the Shanghai-Volkswagen plant in Ningbo, and the retail guise could be introduced at the Guangzhou Motor Show in November and go on sale that same month.
Assuming this is the production car, its main lines have made the jump from the concept but with less fine detailing, a silver hue and with conventional VW wheels it's lost a little bit of oomph. Still, a few checkmarks on the option sheet can fix most of that, the shape remains handsome and the 2.0-liter turbo underhood keeps performance peppy and mileage frugal enough. You can head to Autohome for a couple more photos of a sedan we'd be happy to make room for over here.
