Punta Gorda, Florida, United States
|
1979 Super Beetle Convertible Karmann Model with Fuel Injection beautiful condition with Owners Manual. Clear Title lists 2100 engine, exempt miles (odometer reads approx. 25,000). Title also lists vehicle as Orange (Mars Red is the actual color). Bought the car in Oct. 2011 from a dealer before it made it to the car lot; dealer had it brought to Florida, from Tennessee (original owner). New alternator, chrome bumpers, some other chrome parts, and master cylinder since I have owned it. It is a head turner and drives nicely. I have 2 others so I am letting this one go. Only serious bidders and ask any questions before bidding please. I also have this for sale locally and reserve the option to end this auction at any time. $500 deposit via Paypal due immediately upon end of auction. Cash payment for balance due within 7 days of end of auction. Vehicle pick up or shipping is the buyers responsibility. There is a slight chip in the windshield on the passenger side that has been there since I bought it which I treated with a sealer and has not spread; please see pictures. Top works in good shape no rips. Sold as is with no warranty so please again please ask any questions before bidding.
Just want to be clear about what I have stated above, the information that I have provided from the title is just that. I have no way to prove the actual mileage or engine size. The color is listed as orange but I got the Mars Red from a paint shop that did a electronic analysis of the paint. I do drive the car about once a week and keep it mostly in the garage but sometimes covered with a car cover on my lanai if I intended to use it again within a day or two. Remember to ask any questions before bidding. Thanks again for your interest. Reserve has been lowered! What an Awesome Christmas Present! Good Luck Bidding! |

European car sales up 8% in February
Sat, 22 Mar 2014Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.
Volkswagen Cross Up! headed for production after Geneva reveal
Wed, 13 Feb 2013The last time we saw the Volkswagen Cross Up!, it was sitting out in the snow in prototype form, but the next time we'll see this slightly more rugged version of the diminutive Up! hatchback will be when it makes its production debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month. Looking like a micro-crossover with its raised ground clearance and black cladding, the Cross Up! will be the fourth "Cross" model for VW (after the CrossPolo, CrossGolf and CrossTouran) when it goes on sale this summer in mainland Europe (UK sales remain up in the air and US sales are highly unlikely).
Overall, the styling of the production Cross Up! has stayed fairly true to the 2011 concept car, including the front and rear fascias that offer a more rugged look, stocky 16-inch wheels and roof rack side rails. Inside, this model will get unique interior enhancements such as "Cross Up!" sill plates and an instrument panel available in red, black or silver. Like the regular Up!, the Cross Up! is powered by a 74-horsepower, 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine paired to a five-speed manual transmission, and it doesn't look like all-wheel drive will be part of the picture. For more details on the upcoming Cross Up!, check out VW's press release posted below.
Volkswagen to add 50k jobs by 2018
Thu, 04 Apr 2013Volkswagen still has its eyes set on becoming the top global automaker by 2018, and to get there, it's apparently going to need more boots on the ground. Automotive News Europe is reporting that VW is looking to increase its staff by 50,000 over the next five years - an increase of nine percent - which does not include an increase in its US dealer network.
According to the report, a majority of the growth will come from China where the automaker is also looking to double its production capacity in the same time frame. The Volkswagen Group is already expected to rival General Motors for the top sales spot in China this year, and such a rapid expansion in the region could make a good springboard for sales increases in other countries.
