Volkswagen, Blue, 1973, Beetle, Bug on 2040-cars
Millersport, Ohio, United States

Was rebuilt, and is in the process of still being completely restored. New engine was put in in 2010, has 30,000 miles on it as of 6/6/14. Miles on speedometer says 97,000 or somewhere around that. New shocks were put on 5/5/14. Most parts on the car are either completely original or brand new. The things that are original, are the only things I have had to fix over the 4 years. The interior is a bit incomplete, it has rubber floor mats, and the seats are dry rotted. The headliner was installed in 2010, and it still looks great. The exterior was freshly painted in 2010. It has a couple dings, ad rusts spots, from everyday wear and tear. the rear deck lid has a little ding and rust spot, where I Backed into someone. The car is beautiful overall, runs great, I drive it on a daily Basis. The tires are only a year old, but only have about 1500 miles on them. This car is manual, 4 cylinder. Runs like a champ. The car has the original stick shift in it, and the running boards seem to be from a 1974 beetle style, but they were put in brand new in 2010. The windshield wipers runs off the spare tire and whatnot. There is a blower motor in it for the heat, which works fabulous once you get the car going! The exhaust was put on new in 2011, but has normal wear and tear. Spark plugs, distributer, points, coil, air filter were all just changed 5/5/14. In the city it gets about 20 mpg, and highway about 30 mpg. I drive it on a daily basis, so I know it is a reliable car.

VW Up Buggy may be headed to showrooms
Tue, 02 Jul 2013Volkswagen showed six conceptual takes on its Up at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show, one of those being the Up Buggy. Although few will probably remember it, VW has not forgotten it, applying for a patent for the Meyers Manx revival roadster way back in March 2012 and being approved in June of this year, according to a report in Autocar. That will give the automaker a 14-year lock on the design while it decides whether to move forward with a reboot of its past.
A patent doesn't mean the Up Buggy will ever move beyond the sheet-of-paper stage, but Autocar says VW is studying the market to see if a production version is feasible. We can't see North America ever getting it, but even so, we wouldn't complain if they made it - especially if they put an exposed engine in back that was set off by 18-inch-long twin tailpipes jutting straight up into the air. However, for a company that aims to be the world's number-one automaker by 2018, a niche vehicle for its mass-market brand would be a surprising use of resources.
Volkswagen Group previews its wares on eve of Geneva show
Mon, 05 Mar 2012The Volkswagen Group is comprised of 11 brands producing 240 vehicles across 49 factories throughout the world. So the best way to show off the range of the VW family is to cram a few thousand journalists and VIPs into a massive makeshift stand to outline the Group's goals, what's in the pipeline and what you'll be able to buy later this year.
To that end, VW pulled out all the stops on the eve of the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, bringing along 10 vehicles from across the range. We'll be delving into the details of each over the next two days of show coverage, but before that happens, you can read all about what we saw tonight from the cheap seats after the break.
