I AM LISTING THIS VW VAN FOR MY UNCLE WHO IS NOT COMPUTER SAVVY. I HAVE NEVER LISTED A VEHICLE, I'M DOING THIS AS A FAVOR. AS YOU CAN SEE MY RATING SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. THIS IS A 1973 VW VAN, PURCHASED BY MY UNCLE IN 1975, YES, HE IS THE SECOND OWNER. THIS VEHICLE IS IN NEED OF A TOTAL RESTORATION OR PARTS USE. WHILE I AM A CAR GUY, I KNOW VERY LITTLE ABOUT VW'S. HOWEVER, IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, I CAN TRY TO ANSWER OR DIRECT YOU TO CALL MY UNCLE, HE WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO TELL ALL THE DETAILS AND MEMORIES DRIVING THIS VAN. THE VAN HAS BEEN PARKED AND OFF THE ROAD FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS. THERE IS APPROXIMATELY 150K ON THE VEHICLE. THE MOTOR IS A BANGIN 63HP, YEARS AGO HE REPLACED THE FACTORY SHORT BLOCK THAT CAME DIRECT FROM GERMANY. THE BLOCK HAS 30K MILES AND THE HEADS HAVE 15K MILES. THE HEADS WERE REPLACED AS YOU PROBABLY WOULD KNOW, SO IT CAN RUN ON UNLEADED FUEL VS. LEADED. I KNOW PEOPLE GO NUTS FOR WHATEVER MAKE, MODEL, CAR, TRUCK WHATEVER IS OUT THERE, SO IF YOU WANT TO GIVE THIS VAN A GOOD HOME AS MY UNCLE WOULD HOPE TO SEE, GREAT.

VW debuts Get Happy Super Bowl ad
Mon, 28 Jan 2013
Brace yourself for another tidal wave of Super Bowl commercials. Volkswagen has released its spot for this year's big game. Set to air during the second quarter, the Get Happy spot follows one jubilant office worker as he makes his way through the day, spreading joy wherever he goes. The source of his happiness? A Volkswagen Beetle, of course. Now, if you're wondering why a gaggle of white guys are running around on your screen with Jamaican accents, it will help to know the spot is part of a larger Get Happy campaign featuring Jimmy Cliff.
The first ad in the series featured the artist singing his rendition of "C'Mon, Get Happy," complete with a little help from some notorious unhappy YouTube stars. You can take a look at the new ad before it airs below, along with the complete press release for a little more background.
Auto execs surveyed say VW, BMW most likely to grow
Thu, 17 Jan 2013A new survey of top global automotive executives indicates both Volkswagen and BMW are the most likely to grow their market share over the next five years.
Tax advisory firm KPMG LLP has released its 14th annual Global Automotive Executive Survey, which includes responses from over 200 executives. A total of 81 percent of respondents said they expect to see Volkswagen make gains, compared to 70 percent last year. BMW, meanwhile, saw 70 percent of those surveyed say they believe the company will increase its market share. That's a jump of 7 percentage points over last year. This is the first time in the history of the survey that BMW has claimed the second-place spot.
Meanwhile, Hyundai has seen its perceived market share potential slacken for the third year in a row. Around 61 percent of those surveyed predicted gains for Hyundai, down from 63 in 2012. Toyota also has a surprising year, but for just the opposite reason. While the manufacturer had slipped in ranking since 2011, it enjoyed the largest increase of any company in the 2013 survey, jumping to 68 percent from 44 percent last year.
New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise
Mon, 18 Feb 2013Convertibles make you do funny things. Ask someone if they'd drive a hardtop in near freezing temperatures with all the windows down and they might not even answer, thinking the question so ridiculous. Give that same person a convertible they love and you might just have to ask them to please put the top up even when snow is on the ground.
That guy has to take precautions to enjoy his proclivities, and as this new ad for the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible shows, not everyone understands. Have a watch below, and note that there's just one woman in the minute-long spot, and she's nowhere near the car. Seriously, why didn't VW run this commercial during the Super Bowl?
